Going through something difficult in your life, music, for me, is always a friend and something that helps you to figure things out.

This person loves tangerines, This person loves raspberries - and my son won't even look at berries. Isn't that amazing? And so I have to apply that to music; otherwise, I would always hide in a hole because of all the people that don't like Coldplay.

I don't mind not being cool.

We aren't cool and never will be.

There's stuff going on in the world right now, which you can't imagine why is this happening; it's crazy. I don't know what the answer is, but if you didn't have faith in the universe that somehow something great would arrive at the end, then we'd all give up, and that would be a waste of everyone's time.

I've never been cool and I don't really care about being cool. It's just an awful lot of time and hair gel wasted.
