If someone thinks I'm a dickhead, fine, listen to someone else's record, then. We're not a totalitarian regime no one's forced to listen to Coldplay. It's actually quite a compliment if you're something that people can stand against.

I've had tinnitus for about ten years, and since I started protecting my ears it hasn't got any worse - touch wood.

I think that the fact that a relationship becomes public is a bit of a bummer. Because it can distract from the real reason why you're together, which is that you just like each other.

There's a reason why people who've had bad relationships with their parents listen to angry stuff.

I've either got an acute case of hypochondria or I'm falling apart at the age of twenty-three.

Cool to me is following what you believe in.

Before our albums are released I feel like we still own it, that we have control over our music. But once it's out there in the world it's no longer ours.

Although it's painful at the time, most of the things that people have said about us negatively - some of them are true and you can work on them, and the ones that you don't agree with, you don't work on.
