People just love to hate Coldplay, which I understand. Like U2 and other supergroups of our time they seem to be jammed down our throats by a music industry bent on forcefeeding us whatever they think that we will buy. Also, Coldplay has a pretty mainstream sound that is easy to get tired of. However, I remember discovering Don´t Panic on a sampler CD that came with a music magazine way back in the day when I still bought music magazines and nobody knew the band. It is off Coldplay´s first album, Parchutes, which came out in 2000. While preparing this post I discovered that Coldplay really doesn´t like this album and have publicly stated, "We know that's terrible music". Well I beg to disagree. Coldplay´s first two albums, Parachutes and A Rush of Blood to the Head, are my favorites and I lost interest in them after hearing their third album X & Y. However, Don´t Panic, besides being the phrase printed on the front of The Hitchhiker´s Guide to the Galaxy
one of my favorite books ever, is a very dark song and was the least commerically successful of the singles of the first album. It´s another one of those "get with it and enjoy life because you know you´re gonna die" songs that I love so much. Here is a short example of the llyrics.
Bones sinking like stones
All that we've fought for
Homes, places we've grown
All of us are done for
We live in a beautiful world
Yeah we do
Yeah we do
We live in a beautiful world

I´M NOBODY (based on the poem by Emily Dickinson) I´m nobody Who are you? I´m nobody Are you nobody too?
