Isn't that just someone quoting that NME piece and getting none of the irony...

I'm sure Chris is in stitches laughing though.

They may have completely misunderstood the context in which it was said, however, as the old saying goes: Any publicity is good publicity.

talk about poor journalism (if it can be so called). I love the bit about 'left reeling'

It reminds me of when in the early Nineties Melody Maker did a satirical piece of Nelson Mandela supposedly slating the bands playing at his own support concert (something along the lines of "Simple Minds? Pompous Scottish f***wits who would rob Bono's house for an American Top 40 hit") – and then Sun took it for real and made a cover story of it.

Could someone give the full quote from the NME interview, please? Or even better, a link to the interview?

Got it myself, from the other thread - just ignore.

Thy're just trying to put Chris down because he's a genius but not their type of "cool music". As for Coldplay I think Liam Gallagher had them pegged.
