Coldplay Songs
British rock band Coldplay have recorded over 178 songs throughout their career. They were formed in London by Chris Martin (lead vocals, piano), Jonny Buckland (guitar), Guy Berryman (bass guitar), Will Champion (drums, percussion) and Phil Harvey (creative direction). With exception of the latter, all members are equally credited as songwriters of each track. They explored many music styles as the years went by, developing a sound that is considered alternative rock, alternative pop, pop rock, post-Britpop, soft rock, and pop. The band released two extended plays in the late 1990s, ''Safety'' (1998) and '' The Blue Room'' (1999), with both having characteristics of dream pop that settled them apart from future releases. Their debut album, ''Parachutes'', was then released in July 2000. Berryman described it as "a quiet, polite record", with Scottish band Travis and American singer Jeff Buckley serving as primary influences. It drew comparisons to Oasis and Radiohead as we ...
