Just watched Coldplay perform on SNL. They are so cheesy & cringe. All their music sounds the same. The lyrics are just so sappy and Chris Martin is such tool.
I’m not usually this negative, but I feel like this has been on my chest for years.
Anonymous wrote:The Astronaut was a cover Jin’s song which Coldplay co-wrote. Jin was forced to enlist in the military just weeks after it was released and this was only the second live performance of the song. Coldplay members all wore Wootteo pins. The SNL performance represented a deep friendship between BTS and Coldplay, the day before the Grammys and the nomination of their collab song My Universe (which lost).

Anyone putting Coldplay in the same category as U2 should keep their thoughts to themselves.
