I was watching some show on Comedy Central that's hosted by David Spade, and this comedian comes up and starts ragging on the MTV Music Video Awards. About Coldplay, he said something along the lines of this:
"Coldplay - the new U2? More like the new U-Suck! You know what's cool about U2? They aren't known as the old Coldplay."
I absolutely love Coldplay and their music, but I thought that was incredibly funny.

Besides the vocals, Coldplay doesn't sound anything like U2.
Coldplay is more mellow. I can't imagine them rocking to something like "Vertigo" or "Zooropa".
Yeah Coldplay is more mellow, but they're so influenced by U2 it's almost shameful. Especially with X&Y.
Disclaimer: I also really like Coldplay
um.. U2 is just richer (in quality) than coldplay. Now that might be a statement that is laden with the acknowledgement that U2 HAS been around much longer, thus making it classic, but coldplay.. isn't there yet. And yes, i too like coldplay. (c:
Also, I don't think Coldplay's lyrics are as interesting as U2's.
Am I the only person in the world who realizes U2 makes great music, but really has no desire to listen to them? I enjoy hearing a U2 occasionally, but I never sit down and listen to a whole album like I do with other bands.

Yes.
Seriously, that makes no sense. Why listen to music that's not great when you have great music?
