Coldplay

I'm sure everyone knows about this band, more probably through radio and then people have their CDs because they are amazing and from my poit of view the are one of the best band in the word. I heard them on the radio a lot time ago, and I liked them very much, every song are special and beatiful.
But, did you ever wondered about them? They are an alternative rock band formed in London in 1997. The members are: Chris Martin (vocalist and guitarist), Jon Buckland (lead guitarist), Guy Berryman (bassist) and Will Champion (drummer, backing vocalist, and multi-instrumentalist, completing the lineup).
For me, their songs are very special, like I've just said it, and they are also very nice. My favourite are: "Violet hill", "Shiver", "The hardest part", "Lovers in Japan", "Lost"...and a lot more like "Trouble", "Clocks" and so on.

Martin spoke out against the U.S. invasion of Iraq in  2003, and endorsed the United States Democratic presidencial candidates John Kerry and Barack Obama in 2004 and 2008.
In June 2009, Coldplay began supporting Meat Free Monday, a food campaign started by Paul McCartney, which tries to help climate change by having at least one meat free day a week
They donate and help vulnerable children and young people in London, so they try to be helpful as they can.
