coldplay & kraftwerk are both on emi and yes it was authorised etc.
i'm not much of a coldplay fan, apart from 'don't ask' (obvious i
know, but a really pretty song with lovely guitars) but i was kind of
stunned at how clumsy their interpretation of the melody from
'computer love' is. it just sounds wrong, too complex and convoluted
in the context they use it in. perhaps it would have been better to
use a shorter part and not to try & force it where it doesn't really
fit. whatever.
