I actually want to like COLDPLAY. If these jokers are in fact this generation's BEATLES, I feel a certain cultural obligation to get down off my high horse, leave bias at the door, and dig on the pop bliss goodness. The cloyingly sentimental piano pop bliss goodness at that. No luck so far. Guess I'll just have to make do with the Radar Brothers until that blessed day.
