Strengths and Weaknesses: Coldplay

With Coldplay set to release their 5th studio album, Mylo Xyloto, next week, it's a good time to take a look at some of the band's strengths and weaknesses.

COLDPLAY

STRENGTHS

• More Grammys than Barack Obama.
• Have drawn comparisons to the Beatles, the most famous band in the world... besides Coldplay.
• All band members have British accents, just in case being rock stars isn't a good enough way to get girls.
• If you play their 2nd album "A Rush of Blood to the Head" and the movie "Love Actually" at the same time, it syncs up perfectly.
• New album will go platinum even if recorded on a Yak Bak.
• Appeal to fans of rock, pop, alternative... pretty much every genre except country... and let's face it, country music fans don't deserve to listen to Coldplay.
• They don't panic.
• Got music critics to shut up about Radiohead for five minutes.

WEAKNESSES

• Only 1 of 4 band members married to Gwyneth Paltrow.
• Afraid to tell world Coldplay is actually 2 words.
• Donate lots of time, money, and effort to charity organizations instead of making more music I can listen to.
• Song "Yellow" actually about a bad case of jaundice.
• Occasionally get sunburn from own stage lighting, due to pasty white Brit-skin.
• Probably really terrible at sports.
• Always trying to fix you.
• No one can pronounce Mylo Xyloto.
