  • January 24, 2001 GET A LIFE 11 Music Review Coldplay's Parachute Getting You Through Your Day By Hannah Crane Staff Writer To most music fans the ideal album is one that can carry you through a whole day and suite most any mood that comes along. Coldplay's most recent offering, Parachute, is a CD that you can put in first thing in the morning and listen to throughout the day until you succumb to slumber. It is almost guaranteed that at least one song will say what you've been feeling. The British group has a unique way of soothing the ear with their consistently pleasing guitar riffs and thoughtful, smooth vocals. When the alarm clock goes off tearing you away from that weird dream, the first song on the album, "Don't Panic," is an upbeat way to start the day. The chorus tells us that "we live in a beautiful world," and the easy guitar crescendos reinforce the idea. "Shiver" is another song ideal for shaking that sleepy feeling. This song, with its anxious guitar riffs, rocks out the most of any on the album. The speaker is frustrated because he loves a girl who doesn't acknowledge him. He wants to be strong and move on, but he admits that he will always wait for her to change her mind. He adds that whether she chooses him or not, she will always be his Object of desire. Lyrically, neither of these songs strain the brain, which makes them ideal for early morning listening. After a busy day of school or work, a song that helps unwind the frazzled nerves is a welcome thing. Parachute has several numbers to fit the bill. The laid- back "Yellow" is a great song for sitting back and watching the clouds go by. However, if the simplistic guitar chords combined with the happy-in-love lyrics don't make you forget your troubles, then perhaps the bluesy, thoughtful "Everything's Not Lost" is more your flavor. Lead singer Chris Martin's vocal delivery, mixed with the bare piano intro, is a sweet combo ideal f o r unwinding as the sun sets. Finally, Parachute features music for falling asleep. "Sparks" provides hypnotic, mellow background music as you get cozy in your bed. The song is a tad bit on the sad side, but lyrically it is one of the strongest pieces in the collection. Something has gone wrong in the relationship, and there seems to be no easy solution. But the speaker is willing to ride out the confusion because of the sparks he saw; the sparks make him hope that there will once again be a flame. The most intriguing song on the album is perhaps "Trouble". A sensitive piano intro massages the listener as the speaker uses being caught in a spider web as a metaphor for getting caught up in distractions and so ignoring someone important in his life. "Oh no, I see, a spider web, it's tangled up with me. And I lost my head, the thought of all the stupid things I said" begins the dreamlike song. Martin's British accent comes through nicely in the piece. In a first brief encounter, the listener will be tempted to suggest that the lead singer sounds like Dave Matthews. However, further listening disproves that theory, and Chris Martin comes into his own—perhaps he even sounds better than Matthews. Parachute is complete both musically and lyrically. In short, it is a great soundtrack for your day. i0xiOSCb?£5: rOli SlJTHiMlJl'JflJT ?UJi?D5£S UllLV Aries | You may find yourself at a loss for words more than once this week, | which is something very unusual for you. Don't worry. Your wittiness just needs a rest. In the meantime, maybe you could spend more time listening rather than waiting to talk. Libra Love is important to a Libra and affects all areasofLibranlife.A sudden epiphany Pertaining to your love life has put you once again on the right track "nail aspects of your life. Your mental awareness is on the up, | and your energy is high. Congratulations! Taurus An important upcoming event has you anxious and at loose ends about everything. Be careful that you aren't too snippy with friends and co-workers right now. They are there to support you, but they won't be your punching bag. Relax a little. You're feeling very self- critical lately, and it's not uncommon for you to be distracted in class or at work thinking about all of the things you think make you inadequate. One way to solve this, obviously, is to keep busy. Go build something. Gemini While externally you're a happy and whole person, inside you've been feeling lost and alone. This is common of Gemini, as deep down inside your quest for a soul mate grows stronger. Remember that you're young, and time is on your side. Scorpio Sagittarius. Your inability to make promises (and keep them) is what is at the core of a close one's discontent. It's time to be a little more willing to commit to things. The consequences of not doing so may be full of heartache and regret. Cancer A brave new world awaits you, as you've just accomplished something you're incredibly proud of. So what is your new purpose in life? As a goal-oriented Crab, you are constantly seeking a new activity. It'll arrive shortly, and you won't have to worry about boredom for quite a while. While you are fearless when it comes to going after what you want in school, work, and life in general, you are often egotistical about your accomplishments. This may be a key reason you have yet to have a successful relationship. Some1 thing to think about. Leo Friends-they're grrrrrrreat! Remember that before you take advantage of them. Your tendency to take credit that isn't yours and lack of hesitation to step on others to succeed may endanger close friendships. Maybe you should look at what's important to you. Aquarius Lacking a little confidence in the past month? Have no fear. There are no clouds on your horizon this week, and you will be receiving recognition for your many gracious services, hence boosting the old self esteem. Virgo Nerves, nerves, nerves. And all of them are on edge. Your temper is short lately, perhaps because of a letter you are waiting for. Virgo is generally very kind and helpful, but when put on edge you are very dogmatic and critical of everyone. Think before you speak. Pisces Well, look at you! Generally hesitant to go after what you truly want in the love department as a Pisces, you've made a change. And it's about time too! There is no reason to settle for anything in life, and now you aren't. You go Pisces!
