Ok I would tell you thank you with all my heart, it's fantastic to play/show in France and I'm sorry I'm alone, my friends are to the beach... they're eating ice cream!"

[DanM25456]

[MaxiCosi07]

mira las histericas

[Kaynos]

in 2008 Coldplay is the musical group that sold the most cd's in the world. Their last album, Viva la Vida sold over 500,000 copies in France.

There's more than 40 millions peoples worldwide that own a Coldplay album.

Coldplay is one of the rarest rock group to have been able to reconcialite criticisism and public.

This year as we celebrate the 10th anniversary of the MMA, it's also been 10 years since Chris Martin and it's friends formed Coldplay.

This is why we give them this award.

[bigjokk]

thank you for the kind translation

[rachelkleinsman315]

He actually says -

'My french is like a broken car, it's very slow and very difficult to listen to'

[OdeToTravis]

rather "to hear" :)

[homerkent]

Chris, do you like ice cream.?..x

[fakdeusernejm]

Chris fidgets a lot x)! He is gorgeous. ^^

[TCall2004]

He's adorable in two languages.

[Mimosyce]

Mon Dieu, Chris Martin parle francais...oh, que je suis fiere!!!!

[Tiffyyoo]

Congrats coldplay!

[lucapila]

Die Chris martin is ook echt een kooooning

[lucapila]

Well, maybe you shouldn't be so stupid by directly commenting what you think I was saying. Apparently you are not so smart.

It's Dutch for: Chris Martin is such a king, which is a very positive sentence in Holland to say.

So next time you think being smart, thirst put it in a translator or something..

you prick

[Tiffyyoo]

Ι donnot μιλήστε αγγλικό πολύ καλά αλλά τόσο πολύ όσο μπορώ να καταλάβω το σχόλιό ότι σας φάνηκε negitive πολύ θλιβερό

[TCall2004]

You have to excuse some people. They can barely speak English, much less a foreign language.

And I agree with you. He is a king!
