Their video for Speed of Sound was nominated for a video award.

AND THEY'RE JUST SITTING IN FRONT OF A SWIRLY RAINBOW THING IN A VIDEO SCREEN FOR THE WHOLE THING. :o

Even then, it's not even original. It's just U2's City of Blinding Lights video with a slightly different light wall and minus the audience.

I don't like Coldplay. I don't like Jessica. So neither.

Funny you should say that...there are three "light wall" videos out there. Linkin Park with "Faint" first, then Coldplay, then U2 (that video came about 2 weeks after Coldplay). So both technically copied the former. :P

I figured that would come up.
The lightwall featured in the U2 video is the same they've used through the entire Vertigo tour.
They also used a very similar lightwall during their PopMart tour in 1997.

Yeah, and U2 weren't the first people to use a light wall. Big whoop.

Coldplay better than Jessica Simpson, but they both get on the bus of doom for rubbish abnds and artists. Blergh.

This was an easy one...Coldplay
Jessica Simpson is a good singer and has some good songs but Coldplay naturally talented...her songs are written by other song writers.

I vote for Jessica Simpson because I only like one song from Coldplay.
