Coldplay love-hate relationship

Coldplay frontman Chris Martin has admitted that the band have split up on numerous occasions but, thankfully for their huge fan base, Britain’s biggest pop group always get back together again. “We have split up on this tour,” says Chris speaking from London where the band is performing. “Every time we do, we get back together about 20 minutes later – we don’t even have time to announce it! How many times has it happened this tour? Probably six or seven. Each time we say, ‘This is it! This is the last show!’ But then you have a fun show and everyone shuts up. The last time it happened… well, even our publicist wouldn’t have found out about it. “To be honest, whenever we have any bad news, I always quit for about 10 minutes. “I get depressed about something – a gig didn’t go well or that person said something terrible. But then the rest of the band will say, ‘It’s oK, we’ll carry on’.

“I’m trying to think when the last bit of bad news was. Well, putting things into perspective, there hasn’t been anything that bad for a while. I’m supposed to be getting divorced, we’re supposed to be getting sued… but those things aren’t happening so don’t really count as bad news. If my publicist calls me then I know it’s bad news!”
