Y’all forgot Metallica!

You have great bands like Anthrax and Motorhead that are practically begging for a guest spot on the Simpsons, but they still insist on having pussies like Coldplay on the show. Of course, given the Simpsons is still the funniest show on TV, I’ll probably watch anyway.

Unfortunately the Simpsons has been terrible for a long time now. I like Coldplay, but the show has turned into a never ending series of guest appearances. Back in the early days, guest stars usually were written into an episode as a character. Now it’s this Simpsons episode with Coldplay, N Sync, the Who, etc… At some point it got ridiculous.

As for the MJ episose, interesting commentary on the DVD for that one. If I recall, Jackson did the speaking for that episode, but not the singing, for some odd reason. Or maybe it was the other way around.

I don’t care much about The Simpsons anymore. The older episodes are great, but after the movie I think they’ve fallen off. I’m sure that they will play up Coldplay’s pussydom for laughs however. It’s not like anyone in Springfield would have much inclination towards Coldplay after all(okay maybe Smithers.)

Not really sure why Coldplay are considered “pussies” but whatever. Can’t wait to see this episode!

….and the transformation of Coldplay to U2 is almost complete, minus the awesome songs, killer live shows, and personality.

Kevin, Kevin, Kevin – it’s America, unless you’re rapping about selling crack, doing a country hooe-down or screaming “WOOOAAAARRGGHHHHH!!!” you are a pussy.

Don’cha know? You have to have a giant wart like Lemmy or a stupid beard like Scott Ian in order not to be a pussy.

Joe…
Go to one of their shows. You’ll change your mind about that.

Coldplay are actually overtaking U2 as far as sales and popularity

I’ve been to two of their shows. Above average at their best moments; clumsy and unfocused at their best. U2 blows them out of the water every time.

What show did YOU see?!

what about metallica

Metallica would be GREAT to see on The Simpsons!

If You didnt know coldplay is the worlds biggest band……how the hell is this amazing group pussies? is it because you dont recognize talent?

Although it’s nice to see these bands animated on the Simpsons show, Homer isn’t really a modern/alternative rock fan but in past episodes has shown he’s more of a classic rock, psychedelic 60’s/70’s rock fan. I can’t picture Homer requesting Coldplay to play live for him. But it will still be cool to see them on the show.

I saw them at the Coors Ampitheatre in San Diego on their Twisted Logic tour and prior to that on the tour behind Rush of Blood. The Coors show was painfully forced and Chris’ singing was off. Closed their Rush of Blood show with “Amsterdam” under house lights and that was pretty good. They have a long way to go to come close to U2.

The Simpsons are stooping to new levels of suckitude with Coldplay – oh and just because an album sells, doesn’t make it good. It means that there are a lot of people out there with shitty taste in music.

Kev… actually Metalica was on the Simpson’s a while back (when Otto’s Bus broke down) I’m sure it’s on you tube somewhere.

Hopefully Bart will be wearing a Chickenfoot shirt and Nelson will beat up Chris. Ha Ha…

Joe, if you don’t like the songs, why did you go to two shows?
And you haven’t seen the Viva La Vida show, so you have NO idea what you’re talking about.

Shultz, and just because a band wins lots of awards all over the world doesn’t mean they’re good either?

Kevin,
Most awards are based on sales that are propagated by those with bad taste. Other awards are given by industry “experts” based on God knows what.

Miley Cyrus has awards, would you rank her up there with Coldplay? I would.

P.S. Pay attention and learn how to spell names, especially those right in front of you…

hasn’t this show been on long enough? it’s not that i don’t like it, but 20 years, let’s move on already….

Why do they bother with crap like coldplay put a decent band on

I liked Coldplay in their early days. Parachutes was perfection, and A Rush Of Blood To The Head was okay. I saw the band perform live on both those tours, and enjoyed it…

… Then came X&Y, and i found that the more popular they became, the worse their performances got, and the worse their songwriting and albums got.

The way, way, WAYYYYYY overrated Viva La Vida, was the final straw for me. You can keep your Coldplay. I’ve had enough, thanks!

Also, comparing the popularity of Coldplay in 2009, to U2 in 2009 is ridiculous. Let’s see how big Coldplay still are in 2026.

YAY, I can’t wait to watch this episode!!!

I tried to like this band. they are constantly placed alongside bands like rem, u2 and radiohead and I thought I should at least check out the albums as singles can quite often be garbage like the flat and annoying “yellow” and not reflect the true greatness of a band. After repeatedly listening to all the albums I was extremely disappointed. There were occasional interesting moments but overall I came to the conclusion that is the most sucky, overrated weak as piss band ever. Chris Martin infuriates me . You know how theres love at first sight? It was literally hate at first sight when I first saw his face and heard his pouncy voice. I tried to like them though, i really did. Besides , remember when bono said he was a wanker? I mean if bono thinks hes a wanker , being at least a little bit self aware of his own persona ( spoken word hallelujah ) then the guy must be the biggest tosser on the planet.The Simpsons are pretty cool but

I wonder what it’ll be like if they put all those bands in Family Guy instead of The Simpsons…

Anyone who names their kids ‘Moses’ and ‘Apple’ is a douchebag.

Sorry Schitz… I mean Schultz! my bad!

You said MOST awards. They’ve won every type of award, even the ones I’m sure even YOU find credible. And so if a band you really liked won an award, you would still dismiss it? Or is it just the bands YOU don’t like?

Just out of curiosity, what bands do you like?

Metallica have been on The Simpsons.

Kevin; 1, don’t be an idiot high school kid ; 2, I like bands with a bit more substance, a bit more range, and a bitmore impact than Coldplay. I am not going to get into a “you suck because you you like certain bands” argument here, and there may be some awards that they have that might be worthy, but like Pete Townsend said – and I am paraphrasing – who needs another piece of fucking plastic?

I’m not the one correcting someone’s spelling.
I don’t know why you can’t just tell me what bands you like.
Coldplay has plenty of impact, range and substance. You just have to listen.

“Hello bands… who is playing with the London Symphony Orchestra… C’mon people someone ordered the London Symphony orchestra…possibly while high… Cyprus Hill I’m looking in your direction.”…. CLASSIC !!!

Coldplay is nothing more than a flavor of the month, and Chris Martin sounds more like he’s whimpering rather than singing. The media shoves shitty bands like this down the masses’ throats, and since the majority of America is herd mentality we eat it up. I’ll give Coldgay another five years at the most.

As for Anthrax, they’ve been together almost 30 years and have a new disc coming out soon. And Motorhead, they’ve been together almost 40 years!! Lemmy’s the ultimate road dog, and not only is he gonna outlive us all, he’ll still be onstage when he’s 90 years old cranking out Ace Of Spades and Metropolis.

Other bands I’d like to see on the Simpsons:

SLAYER!!
Godsmac k
Cheap Trick
ZZ Top
Green Day (another flavor of the month but at least they’re good)

Kevin, I listened to Coldplay when Parachutes came out, and then a Rush of Blood to the Head, and then lost interest… everything started sounding the same and the more popular they became the worse their music turned out.

I corrected your spelling because it was my name and then you had to get smart with it.., hence the HS remark. I really don’t know why I am bothering with all this since I really can care less one way or the other… they suck out loud imo.

Coldplay is the kind of band Bart with his b*llshit detector would hate and mock. It’s the first awful band they’ve let come on the show, d’oh !

Well, in MY opinion they are one of the best bands around. They don’t sell out, they care passionately about their music (which they write ALL of!) and energize and care about every fan. They may not snort coke off a hookers ass or go on benders and throw up on stage. And yes his childrens names are a little funny, but what does that have to do with the music? It’s just an excuse for people who don’t like to give.
You hate them, I love them and nothing will change that. They’re going to keep making music for years to come, and may win over some of you people and they may not. And just because a lot of people hate them and say they suck, doesn’t mean they do! It just means that’s you’re opinion. They’re not making music for the people who hate them.
There’s a lot of bands that I can’t stand and don’t listen to. Doesn’t mean they suck, just means I don’t like their music and I won’t listen to it. If there’s an article about the Jonas Brothers or Lady Gaga, I DON’T READ IT! I don’t write a whole dissertation about why they “suck”. I just leave it alone and comment on the bands that I love.

Coldplay are the best and biggest band in the world at the moment so it’s only right they get an appearance on the greatest tv show ever made! There music to ignorant folk is “boring”. In reality they’ve never listened to a Coldplay album where there are much better songs than the likes of Viva, Speed of Sound etc. Cemetries of London, Lovers In Japan, Green Eyes, Square One etc – absolutely fantastic songs.

Cold Play??
Yes an aptly named band.

Love the Simpsons and I LOVE Coldplay even more. Yes, some people do not like them…so what..they have sold more cd’s than most bands could ever dream of…The best thing about them is they are so humble…They do not act like the typical rock band…cocky, doing drugs, drinking and being overall idiots…

ok i don’t know why people hate coldplay so much they are a very talented band and the people saying they suck are saying that bands like motorhead, cheaptrick, zz top, and godsmack are good bands give me a break coldplay has more talent then any of those bands put together and also when bono called chris a wanker he was just kidding they are actually friends

You have great bands

هههههههههههههه

yes,gud

yes,good boy

To paraphrase Hunter S. Thompson, I feel the same way about Coldplay as I do about herpes

Pour ma part , je suis une grande fan de Coldplay et des Simpsons. Je suis donc plus du côté de Coldplay mais je peut comprendre que beaucoups de gens ne les aime pas , voir les déteste mais cela m’est totalement égal. Après tout , chacun ses gouts , moi je respect bien ceux des autres.

Can’t we just agree that Peter Frampton WON’T finish all that watermelon?

I hope they let the guy from Coldplay say some funny stuff and not just play music, I know they could, they’ve all got good senses of humor and can be quite comical, intentionally of course. Looking forward to this.

Coldplay rocks, some peole just dont get their music. the combionation of wonderful stringged instruments with Chris’s voice is extremely appealing and breath taking. (at least it is to me) remember, beauty (and good music) is in the eyes (or ears) of the beholder.

i am just happy that Coldplay will be on the show and get more publisity then they can make more albums and use the money they make to give to charity. did you know that Coldplay donated 1 million dolllars to charity? some people may not think they’re good, but at least their nice.

wt f coldplay are brillant artist they write their own songs their one of the biggest bands in the world chris martin cant even read music and hes still brillant their really normal chaps i have no idea y people are r calling them pussieswhen they fantastic i saw them live and it was the best day of my life so far im not i big fan of the simpsons but im going to watch it anyway when thay are on!

i think it would be funny if the gorillaz was in the simpsons weird lol

I love COLDPLAY, those guys are awesome and they know how to throw a performance. I have been to 4 of their concerts and I will go see them again in future concerts. The whole band has style and class, I hope one day I get to met them in person. I have all of their CD’S and Chris Martin is a brillant guy.

FREND1:Coldplay is better than U2 by far, and by far i mean ffaaaarrrrr.
FREND2:not to mention how much better Chris martin’s voice is so much bettr than Bono’s…..i mean who’s name is Bono?
FREND1:I…. friend1…. have been to 1 of their concerts and they were 3 FEET IN FRONT OF ME!!!!!!!!
