[@NickFinazzo-j9d]

Chris’s got such a vibe about him. So well spoken, so SOFT spoken. Love this band

[@mhpatterson]

Chris is a philosopher who teaches through music.

[@raduioan6619]

It is not dishonest to say that I can scientifically prove God exists because Once you realize that Earth IS NOT a spinning ball floating in space, once you realize that Space as we know it from Nasa does not exist, then it will be much more simple for anyone to see that there is a Creator The Bible even says "even demons believe" Atheists are simply lost, dumb souls They are deceived by satan The whole theory of evolution, big bang, gravity, ball earth is a deception made by satan himself, Scientifically, the globe is a hoax, it does not exist Earth is stationary and it is the center of creation, and it has leveled surface, exactly as it says in the Bible Terra is a leveled plane, surrounded by an ice wall and with water above and below the firmament There is a firmament as it says in the Bible, that divides the waters above from the waters below - the oceans on earth The book of Enoch which still exists in the Ethiopian Biblical cannon, talks in more details about the shape of Earth and about the Universe Ethiopia is the first Christian Kingdom in the world, and the oldest bible is in Ethiopia Dinasours never existed, they are a hoax together with evolution and big bang All the dino bones you see in museums are fake Dragons and giants and other creatures that The Bible talks about, did exist There are no aliens, but "angels" and "demons" The Moon is plasma, it is not solid, all the planets above are luminaries, non solid objects reflected in the firmament Nasa or Nasha in hebrew means "to deceive". It is a satanic organization together with the majority of the Government. nasa is satan, Earth is not a planeT, but a plane. It is all an attempt from satan to make people atheists. The devil is real and he wants your life and your soul. Look up "top 20 proofs earth is not a spinning ball", I cannot write the name of the channel because my comment will be automatically removed by yt algorithm Things are much deeper and much worse than you imagine Once you realize this, you WILL HAVE TO COME TO THE UNDERSTANDING THAT the question is not if there is a creator, the question is who IS GOD? And unless you come to the CONCLUSION that GOD is YESHUA JESUS CHRIST THE SON FROM THE TRINITY, THE MESSIAH, unless you come to this, you are still asleep and not awake THE OLD TESTAMENT IS THE INTRODUCTION TO JESUS CHRIST THE TRINITY "I AM THE WAY, THE LIFE AND THE TRUTH" This is what you NEED to understand The war is between Christ and satan And they fight for our souls JESUS CHRIST THE TRINITY IS THE ONE AND ONLY GOD AND THE ONE AND ONLY WAY JEWS ARE THE CHOSEN ONES SO THEY SHOULD UNDERSTAND THIS BETTER THAN ANYONE IF THEY DON'T, THEY ARE ASLEEP AND NOT AWAKE THE ONLY TRUE CHRISTIANITY IS ORTHODOXY, NOT CATHOLICISM May God Yeshua Jesus Christ THE TRINITY HELP YOU!!!

[@cris2132]

I hope Coldplay knows that in Latin America we really want them to play Coloratura. It doesn't matter if it's 10 minutes, we love that music. Greetings from Peru.

[@amdresr.6789]

Hay que ir a los hoteles a rogarles en persona que la toquen, al menos una fecha por pais, por último. No veo otra alternativa :(

[@danimichelle16]

Chris always has something so profound to say, so many quotable moments. He's a wise soul 🫶🏻

[@Blue_Lugia]

He thinks a lot even when talking. I have a feeling that he sometimes answers the questions while he has something else on his mind, whatever that might be. He kind of fades away.

[@Rob-nl5ge]

You can tell Chris loves a chat with die hard fans of the band. Great work guys!

[@Blue_Lugia]

He looks a little reserved though. He's either nervous or a little shy.

[@heres.mrs.m]

I'm teary eyed when Chris said, warm to his one word response to Ghost Stories. I often associate that album with his personal life and the crushing news of his divorce. I have a difficult time going back to that one. 'Oceans' with the faint phone dial in the background... haunting lyric, "call never came" and then 'All your Friends' song hit hard for me too. I don't truly know him nor how he feels however I found it beautiful that now he feels warm about that record. ♡

[@GrantBrown-dq9ut]

I want Chris to be my friend. What a kind soul.

[@Blue_Lugia]

Same I force hon to step into a cloning maschine and you and I can have our own clone to befriend. Because unfortnunately I don't think the real Chris would befriend any of us.😂😂😂

[@themayansneverleft200]

I have a dog her name is Missy.

[@robertoladrondeguevara3873]

Probably the best interview they have ever done

[@jannichi6431]

Spanish influence High 2023!💋💞

[@JaneKellie-i9y]

This Interview hits the nail on its head . Coldplay Band music literally saved me. I became a recluse since undergoing 14 - 16 years of palliative care. Living in that dark place has robbed me of Me. I struggled throughout the a deeper side of personal new beginning - was very much a higher power resurfacing mode. In 2025 I'll be travelling Europe To Getting Stuck In To The Festival Gig Scene. Thankyou so much for your music Coldplay Band ..It Really Does Save People's Lives.

[@marce90r]

X&Y doesn't deserved all the BS it gets from Chris. It is to my eyes one of Coldplays best albums and most of the fans (coldplayers) I know love it.

[@ec2926]

Agree. It is a great album.

[@Hahninator]

The problem is the fans aren't able to be in or relate to the headspace Chris was in when it was done. He's forever going to feel like that about the album, no matter how good we all think it is.

[@mralgebro]

Agree! The album that sucked me into forever love for Coldplay!

[@alphalyrae2410]

I feel you. It made my childhood.

[@simpatico4004]

Not in my opinion. There's loads I really like on it - especially A Message, Fix You, and Swallowed in the Sea. I really like the overall sound sonically. But there are a bunch of tracks that I just don't vibe with all that much. In my opinion, their best is probably Viva. It strikes the perfect balance between having absolute bangers and being a great artistic work as a whole, with flashes of experimentation too. Ghost Stories gets pretty close to achieving that as well. AROBTTH completes my holy Trinity.

Incredible work by the ColdplayXtra team!

[@cichyALBUSprod]

This just oozes old school coldplay interview energy! Chris is so happy to answer these questions! It makes me think that they maybe really sick of generic interviews at this point. Chris Martin for Hot Ones!

[@honeybuckin7458]

Legends interviewing legends . Best interview ever ❤️ #ForTheHardcore

[@maria-pk8zu]

This is too good to be true! So grateful we could see a bit more than “radio interviews”! Thanks so much for taking the time to share this with us all

[@Timeforspace]

Coldplay are the best. You make me travel when I listen your songs.

[@jannichi6431]

Best cities tour on this planet in '23. Enjoyed your comment so much, GGGOOO GOOD 😊 👍

[@TheKeinjie]

the best Coldplay interview after a while 🙌🏼 a conversation about Coldplay WITH COLDPLAY!

[@angieb1379]

Brilliant interview with Chris and Jonny. They are so open and honest about themselves and the whole band. Lets have more.

[@ellaaa1498]

They are both so sweet and humble, they will always be my favourite band. Such a kind caring aura coming from them both.

[@bluemar369]

My heart beats with the frequency of your voice and eyes Chris! 💓💫🛸✨🪄

[@mattiascalisi9604]

Jonny saying that Politik in my place yellow is the best part and now this part is almost gone😢

[@chris80skid85]

I love the fact that one of the interviewers is wearing Guy Berryman's clothing line Applied Art Forms. It's a sign of a fan.

[@rickyft]

Thank you from the bottom of my heart to all ColdplayXtra staff!!! What a moment for y'all, and many thanks for everything you did over the years. Sending a lot of love from Chile 🇨🇱

[@89gcameron]

i love the fact that watching this in july 2024, they said that theyd love to do arabesque live but werent sure and Ive just seen them do it at glastonbury... magical

[@malcolmpritchard4882]

I went to the Wembley concert on 21st August the best concert l Have Ever Been 2 ,l was so overwhelmed start to finish joy thanks Coldplay

[@jannichi6431]

"Love Is The Drug"=FREEDOM💟

[@ballerinagirl84]

Truly incredible interview! A breath of fresh air to see and my new go-to when I just wanna feel like I’m nerding out with Chris, Jonny, and the hardcore fans! You did such an amazing job ColdplayXtra and asked just the best questions! This is why I love you! Also, thanks for answering all the questions and always with such thought and care Chris and Jonny. I love you for that and so much more. Let’s do this again yes?! Will and Guy next 🤔🥰 Yes please! #ForTheHardcore ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜💗

[@shannondeans8879]

This will be my comfort video from now on 🥺

[@katjazeug63]

Almost half an hour of Chris Martin just talking. I absolutely adore his voice, it's so calm, I love everything about this.❤ Seeing them live in Munich N2 was the best concert I've ever been to.

[@amberpritchard8721]

Awesome to have an interview hosted by fans. It's nice to hear tailored questions from informed fans rather than the broad questions asked in other interviews. And so great of the guys to take the time and meet with you all and, through you, all of us fans. Thanks for putting it together.

[@nidhivavekar4281]

The ghost stories seems like a really good time they spent in Guy's house. Everytime they talk about that album it just feels like home🤍

[@alexandraduricova6179]

In an interview on Ghost Stories, Zane Lowe told Chris that the album sounded like Chris was being hugged and held tight by all the band members. It almost made Chris cry. Ghost Stories is Chris's therapy and I think the album has the potential to help a lot of people who find themselves in a similar dark place as Chris once was.

[@nidhivavekar4281]

@@alexandraduricova6179 indeed it is a very personal album, also thank you for commenting and reminding me to play this gem of an album on loop🩵

[@Blue_Lugia]

Jonny sounded almost emotional when he talked about not be alble to tour again. ❤

[@andjames]

Well done Ian and Ellen! Applause all around. Love seeing this interview referenced in media all around the world.

[@mariale2999]

Anybody got the reference from the Grahan Norton show “whelmed” 😂💛

[@headfullofmusic422]

i did!

[@luukd]

I wish one time in my live I get the chance to talk to them. Even for a minute I would be so grateful. Thanks for existing and giving us so much good moments❤️

[@hariniboraluwa3375]

THANK YOU guys!!! This interview is heart-warming, nerdy, uplifting and I LOVE it!!! So lovely to see Chris and Johnny super relaxed and allowing us to see just how much love and appreciation they have for themselves and the fans

[@ColdplayXtraTV]

💜

[@EpicnessOosprklzz]

I love Coldplay and I'm so proud of them for going green and taking responsibility that way big venues need to be doing that for concerts etc, it's good to take care of our environment and planet.

[@karants]

Such a great interview, one among the best with Chris and Jonny. Hope to see one with Will and Guy in the future; Thanks ColdplayXtra! :)

[@abhinavdixit6773]

Holy shit this looks so good in 4K 😍

[@terryramos7126]

Love love Coldplay!!❤🙌 their songs are transcendental!! They take it to another level Of music unlike any other!! Coldplay is extraordinary Just Genius music 🎶💙💯

[@lisaa3231]

I love that interview, I think I saw it a hundred times

[@anniewatson9423]

Awww! As an introvert, this interview gave me energy! It’s an actual conversation, insightful and fun! Thank you! I’m nerding out! 😂

[@mhpatterson]

Me too, great comment!

[@applehead7942]

love this interview!! u can tell how much chris and johnny enjoyed it.

[@miguesalazar1955]

The best Coldplay interview so far. Awesome job, guys!

[@DylanTrisko]

For my first coldplay concert back in June I told my friend I’m not gonna record a thing it’s gonna be so memorable that it will stay with me and I want to soak in every moment. He did the same and at the end he goes, dude that was so enjoyable and just way better not even recording a thing. You feel so free not holding your phone up to capture something it’s even more memorable I love it

[@PienFranssen]

I had the same plan one week ago at their show in Düsseldorf, and I really tried and succeeded to some extend, but there were so many beautiful moments which I wanted to capture, to always look back at them. And yes, I will hold the memory in my heart and brain forever, but looking back at the small footage I did record, makes me to be able to re-live it a little bit. There is enough footage online taken by others, which is absolutely wonderful and I watch it all the time, but watching my own footage, taken from my point of view, is valuable too and brings back the feeling of being there... But being completely in the moment, yeah... must have been amazing too. I wish I had known about the post-concert down feelings though.... so so so happy and grateful I went, but soooo down it is over. 😅Just a matter of looking out for the next opportunity I guess...Love from The Netherlands ❤

[@baltazar514]

Great job friends! Really appreciate you both and the team. Huge appreciation for Chris and Jonny for sharing their time this way.

[@RafaeiVentura]

Best interview ever!!!

[@shevonrodrigo7677]

As a die hard fan this was so much fun to watch :)... Thank u coldplay n coldplayxtra!!

[@MaryEllenUveges-nn7kv]

Chris is a remarkable person❤❤

[@zonahfalak4261]

Loved that you made them feel so relaxed. And ofc m not ready for this buckin bromance, the world is not ready for this buckin bromance. Its just too overwhelming and too pure for this world, specially when Chris mentioned about his fall and Jonny said sorry. And yes, we are waiting for Will and Guy next please

[@saeidehmoslemizadeh1463]

Incredible 💫. I live in Iran and it's a little hard for me to be in Coldplay's concert. I hope someday I can be in the concert

[@adhiantos]

Thank you ColdplayXtra and team!!

[@aliciamathura7760]

I love that they spoke about song choices. I didn't expect them to play 'Fly On' at their Wembley show and i cried my eyes out because I love that song so much! I really wish they played Magic and Ink but you that's just me. Love this band so much !

[@debs1969]

Loved this , I think they would have liked to have more time , "fans" questions are always different from media ones and you were really just starting to get somewhere and have them open up a little more .. However they are delightful and I'm happy for you and us that you had this opportunity ...

[@swezzbenn7271]

As a fan, these are the questions I was wondering as well. Great job guys! So fortunate you met Chris and Johny

[@realtrini2007]

Thank you so much for this interview. This was for the nerdy hardcore Coldplayers. I need more.

[@cntry_macc]

I wish they heard X+Y the way I hear it... this was the album that made me a coldplay fan

[@nvlogs6207]

This was super cool that you guys got to interview Chris and Jonny as actual Fans. It was awesome to get more insight on Coldplay and what they’re up to. It was great to hear Jonny’s voice haha I think the Last answer and question we’re definitely my favorite 💚

You Guys are amazing love all the music from the band ....sad as ive not got ticket to ur show in copenhagen 😢😢💜💜
