Well, having just celebrated my 143rd birthday, I thought that it was a compliment to you youngsters out there. But then you mentioned The Rolling Stones, who by my book are about 80yrs older than I am.

Colplay in the Business pages of The Times :-

HMV, Britain's largest music retailer, forecast that the album, released yesterday, would sell 200,000 copies in the first three days of issue. There are hopes that it will match the band's previous offering, X&Y, and sell between 300,000 and 400,000 in the first week and sail comfortably to No 1.


....

No one at EMI wants to put pressure on the British band. “We don't like to see bands on the business pages,” is the regularly repeated mantra. However,the reality is that no media company likes to be reminded that it is dependent on only one or two stars.

...

Chris Martin, the Coldplay front man, has been upbeat about EMI. In a recent interview he said: “I know that these days you're supposed to say that being on a major label is totally antiquated but we're fine with the label and we love the people we work with.”

Chris Martin Crumbles
Singer walks out of interview
12 June 08 - Everything was going well for Coldplay yesterday. Their album Viva La Vida is tipped to go to number one in the album chart after record sales.

But one of the biggest bands in the world seemed to crumble under the pressure during an interview on Radio 4's Front Row last night.

When asked by presenter John Wilson about the lyrics and imagery on their record, Chris Martin refused to answer Wilson's question and left the studio.

"Did you start with the song Viva La Vida and the idea within that song of the diposed dictator looking back at his life?" asked Wilson. To which Martin replied:

"I'm not enjoying this. Can I have 2 minutes?"

Martin proceeded to leave the studio while John Wilson called after him:

"Are you feeling under pressure?"

"I just don't like talking about things," came Martin's reply as he walked out of the interview.

Wilson continued the interview with drummer Will Champion who insisted that his bandmate wasn't 'upset'.

Chris Martin finally returned to the studio but refused to give full answers and was reluctant to talk in detail about the record.

Great album; showing real signs of maturity and progression in terms of exploring (albeit tentatively) new territory.
