An Extraordinary band. Lyrically, and Musically, they, to me, are the greatest brit-pop band of all time.
Coldplay is running for 7 awards this year. But leading the award charter is Lil Wayne with 8 nominations.
Nevertheless, Coldplay has done so well in producing, as many like to call it, "the best ever" album, and it only takes 2 song from their Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends to get 7 nomination. The 2 songs i'm talking about is their first single Violet Hill and the ground shaking Viva La Vida.
Lets see which award they will be running for shall we? :p
