That's too bad.

HappyHarryHardOn: Neil will get you laid

Surprising, but true.

Furthermore, Neil Diamond and Neil Finn back-to-back on a mix tape will get you shagged into the next county.

Coldplay was never more than Radiohead Lite™ for me....

So this is how Coldplay plans on defending their next lawsuit. "No really, it was a tribute song. ."

Could be an interesting compilation.

You can laugh at his campy swagger all you want, but the dude is a good songwriter.

Coldplay is like diet U2, and U2 is like New U2 (which sucks).

One time I had a song running through my head, but it didn't quite sound right.

After about half an hour later, I realized that my brain had conjured up Neil Diamond singing "I Wanna Be Sedated".

"I am," I said
To no one there

Not even the chair

Damn Coldplay, Stupid immigrants stealing the jobs of good white hard-working Middle America men. The Republicans were right all along.

I'm now convinced that there are FarkBOT's that automatically post one of three randomly picked Coldplay meme's whenever a topic is greenlighted.

Neil's lyrics are often awful.

You're now convinced that there are FarkBOT's that automatically post one of three randomly picked Coldplay meme's whenever a topic is greenlighted. Is this correct?

"Leave me out of this, man..."
"No --- I will leave you IN!!!"

A couple years back I worked at a Neil Diamond concert. Going in I expected it to be crap. The man blew me away.

I couldn't believe how many awesome songs he had written. I had no idea.

Neil is now one of my few "worthy of outrageous ticket prices" acts. If he comes back, I'm there.

This latest tour was his best in years. I've never seen him do a bad show, but I was knocked out by this latest one. He's the consummate performer. No one does a better live show.
