How many concerts you play this year?

When you return to our country?

Coldplay.- Chris Martin. I am a musician.

When did you start working on “X&Y”?
Chris Martin: Pretty much as soon as the last one was done. The good songs come along so rarely that you’ve always got to be on call. You always have to have your song pager on in case one of them wants to get in touch with you. [Laughs.] Some people wake up with “Yesterday” in their head. Other people have to spend two years trying to construct it. We’re from the latter. I’m also suspicious of people who say they’ve written 200 songs for their next album, because they tend to be terrible.

How many songs have you written since the last album?
Two hundred.

And how many of them are terrible?
About 190.

The lyrics to several of the songs, particularly “What If,” sound pretty anxious.
Yeah, of course they’re anxious. I’m at a point in my life where I’ve got a lot of great things, but there’s also a lot of bad things going on in my life and in the place where I live, i.e., the world. So there’s a lot of tension in those opposites.

What’s bad in your life? You seem like you’ve got a nice thing going.
Well, yeah. But I’ve got the same issues as everybody else. I do have a great situation. I’m in the best band in the world. I have a great family. But everything you love requires a lot of work. I didn’t want to sing about touring or, you know, where do I put my Grammys? These aren’t things anyone can really relate to. And we all have the same issues of health and death. Just because we’re in Coldplay doesn’t make that stuff any different.

A lot of critics have compared your sound to U2--
Yeah, but I don’t really hear that. We definitely take a lot from U2 in the way we think about things and the way we approach what we do. The right comparison is that we basically do what they say--it’s like they’re the 12th graders and we’re in the fifth grade. They’re a great template of how not to f--- up too bad.

One of the things you certainly share in common with U2 is a social consciousness, the idea that pop stars should at least try to do something with their platform. You’ve gotten heavily involved with the issue of global fair trade. Why?
I know musicians can’t get into politics, because everyone will just shoot you down. Everyone’s so cynical about it. But there comes a point where you have to be like, “Well, f--- it, we live here, too. It’s not just up to people in
Washington to decide how the world is gonna work.” We didn’t know anything about trade until we went to places like Ghana and Haiti, and they’d say to us, “Will you tell your people to stop dumping their crops on us.” And we’d say, “Well, we’re just a band, but OK, we’ll see what we can do.” None of us understood that trade is what causes poverty at root levels.

After a year and a half of touring and then another year and a half of making an album, you guys must get on each others’ nerves a bit. How do you sort out issues? Do you argue? Group therapy?
Things can get very tense. But we’re not really fist-fighters. In most bands, the arguments always tend to involve the singer, and in this case I would get absolutely destroyed by at least two members of this band in a fistfight.

Wait, only two? Who’s the guy in the band you could take?
I’m pretty sure that me and Guy [Berryman], our bass player, would have an equal match. But I would never even approach [drummer] Will [Champion] with my hands raised. It’s very good to be scared of your drummer, actually. I’m sure Bono’s scared of Larry. Wouldn’t Larry win that one? Oh my God, yeah.

ColdPlay - A rush of blood to the head
You said I'm gonna buy this place
and burn it down
I'm gonna put it six feet underground
I'm gonna buy this place and watch it fall
Stand here beside me baby
in the crumbling walls.

Oh I'm gonna buy this place and start a fire
Stand here
until I fill all your hearts desire
Because I'm gonna buy this place
and see it burn
And do back the things it did to you in return.

Huuuhhhh. (4x)

You said I'm gonna buy a gun
and start a war
If you can tell me
something worth fighting for
Oh and I'm gonna buy this place is what I said
Blame it upon a rush of blood to the head

Honey,
All the movements
you're starting to make
See me crumble and fall on my face
And I know the mistakes that I've made
See it all disappear without a trace
And they call as they beckon you on
They say start as you need to go on

Start as you need to go on

Said I'm gonna buy this place and see it go
Stand here beside me baby,
watch the orange glow
Some'll laugh and some just sit and cry
You just sit down there and you wonder why?

So I'm gonna buy a gun
and start a war
If you can tell me
something worth fighting for
I'm gonna buy this place is what I said
Blame it upon a rush of blood to the head
Oh to the head.

Honey,
All the movements
you're starting to make
See me crumble and fall on my face
And I know the mistakes that I've made
See it all disappear without a trace
And they call as they beckon you on
They say start as you need to go on.

As you need to go on
As you need to go on.

So meet me by the bridge
Meet me by the lane
When am I gonna see that pretty face again?

Oh meet me on the road
Meet me where I said
Blame it all upon a rush of blood to the head.















ColdPlay - Un impulso de sangre a la cabeza
Dijiste que voy por comprar este lugar
e incendiarlo
Voy por ponerlo a seis pies bajo tierra
Dijiste que voy por comprar este lugar y verlo caer
Parado, con mi chica
en murallas que se derrumban.

Oh, voy a comprar este lugar y encender un fuego
Parado aquí,
hasta llenar todos los deseos de tu corazón
Porque voy a comprar este lugar
y lo veré quemar
Y rehacer las cosas que te hizo nuevamente.

Huuuhhhh. (4x)

Dijiste que voy a comprar un arma
y comenzar la guerra
Si no puedes decirme
algo por lo que valga la pena luchar
Oh y voy a comprar este lugar es lo que dije!
Culpa de un impulso de sangre a la cabeza.

Cariño,
Todos los movimientos
que tú estás comenzando a hacer
Mírame derrumbarme y caer en mi rostro
Y sé de los errores que cometí
Míralos a todos desaparecer sin dejar huellas
Y te llaman y te empujan a seguir
Dicen, dale, necesitas seguir.

Dale, necesitas seguir.

Dijiste que voy a comprar este lugar y verlo ir
Parado aquí, junto a mi chica,
mirar el fulgor
Algunos reirán y otros sólo se sentarán a llorar
Tú solo siéntate ahí y pregúntate ¿porque?

Entonces, voy a comprar un arma
y comenzar la guerra
Si tú no puedes decirme
algo por lo que valga la pena luchar
Voy a comprar este lugar es lo que dije!
Culpa de un impulso de sangre a la cabeza
Oh a la cabeza.

Cariño,
Todos los movimientos
que tú estás comenzando a hacer
Mírame derrumbarme y caer en mi rostro
Y sé de los errores que cometí
Míralos a todos desaparecer sin dejar huellas
Y te llaman y te empujan a seguir
Dicen, dale, necesitas seguir.

Necesitas seguir
Necesitas seguir.

Entonces encuéntrame en el puente
Encuéntrame en el callejón
Cuando voy a ver ese hermoso rostro nuevamente?

Oh encuéntrame en la carretera
Encuéntrame donde dije
Todo Culpa de un impulso de sangre a la cabeza.

ColdPlay - Clocks
Lights go out and I can't be saved
Tides that I tried to swim against
You've put me down upon my knees
Oh I beg, I beg and plead (singing)
Come out of things unsaid, shoot an apple of
My head (and a)
Trouble that can't be named, tigers waiting to be
Tamed (singing)
You are, you are

Confusion never stops, closing walls and
Ticking clocks (gonna)
Come back and take you home, I could not stop,
That you now know (singing)
Come out upon my seas, curse missed opportunities
(am I)
A part of the cure, or am I part of the disease
(singing)

You are [x6]
And nothing else compares
Oh no nothing else compares
And nothing else compares

You are
Home, home, where I wanted to go [x4]

ColdPlay - Relojes
Las luces se apagan y no me pueden salvar
Mareas contra las cuales intenté nadar
Me pusiste abajo sobre mis rodillas
Oh ruego, ruego y imploro (cantando)
Sal de las cosas que no se han dicho, dispara a una manzana de Mi cabeza (y un)
Problema que no puede ser nombrado, tigres que esperan ser Domesticados (cantando)
Tu eres, tu eres

La confusión nunca para, paredes que se están cerrando y Relojes que hacen tictac (voy a)
Regresar y llevarte a casa, no podría detener,
Eso que tu sabes ahora (cantando)
Sal sobre mis mareas, malditas oportunidades perdidas
(¿soy yo?)
Una parte de la cura, o soy una parte de la enfermedad (cantando)

Tu eres [x6]
Y nada más se compara
Oh no nada más se compara
Y nada más se compara

Tu eres
El hogar, hogar, a donde quería ir [x4]

ColdPlay - Fix you
When you try your best, but you don't succeed
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse
When the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

High up above or down below
When you too in love to let it go
If you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

ColdPlay - Repararte
Cuando haces tu mayor esfuerzo, pero no tienes éxito
Cuando obtienes lo que quieres, pero no lo que necesitas
Cuando te sientes tan cansado, que no puedes dormir
Atascado en reversa
Cuando las lágrimas corren por tu rostro
Cuando perdiste algo que no puedes reemplazar
Cuando amas a alguien, pero se desperdicia ese amor
¿Podría ser peor?

Las luces te guiarán camino a casa
Y encenderán tus huesos
Y yo intentaré repararte

Desde las alturas o en el suelo
Cuando estás demasiado enamorado para olvidar
Si nunca lo intentas, nunca sabrás
Lo que vales

Las luces te guiarán camino a casa
Y encenderán tus huesos
Y yo intentaré repararte
