Was their shameless DM rip-off 'Life in technicolor' also a tribute? And what about all their other numerous accounts of plagarism? Coldplay has no credibility left whatsoever.
According to ANton Corbjin the Enjoy the Silence video inspired Viva La Vida song, later Chris Martin asked him to do this as a Tribute for Depeche Mode video.
i love this song and think, like enjoy the silence, that it is timeless. that coldplay made an alternate tribute video to DM is, i think, an exceptional form of flattery and a great allusion to the classic. go coldplay! i already loved you, but this makes me love you more!
Everybody has different ideas about what a song means at a given time, You can take a song from 20 years ago and rework it to represent a current event.
Well. Even though I always knew this was a "tribute" to Enjoy the Silence, I´ve always managed to see beyond that and appreciate this video and song for it´s very own nature and beauty which are very different to the DM track.
Hola Em: gracias por enviarme este bonito video de una gran banda y dedicado a lo mejores : Los DM!! Este Chrsi debe ser una gran persona también!Besotes
It's really cool of them to play homage to such an amazing band, however, I can't help but compare how mediocre this song and anything Cold Play churns out is to Depeche Mode!
@BjGard ... hmmm, but i guess the Coldplay fans are more respectful towards peoples opinions judging from your lackluster uneducated response towards Coldplay. How are the corporate whores? Don't hate. This video is a tribute to DM.
Looking back at previous posts about the DM press conference I don't think Dave was actually upset with this video..I think he was just having fun with it..and Martin made this clear.. it is a great fun tribute that Im sure Anton wouldn't have done without checking with the guys first. Its fun to watch and pays tribute to the great enjoy the silence video..both are great songs..Viva Coldplay ..Viva Depeche :) -tannavae
I liked Chris Martin and Coldplay before, but now after this tribute to Dave Gahan and Depeche Mode (WHOM I LOVE) I like them more than ever. Good job, guys!

This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I always thought coldplay were a bunch of boring wankers that rip off others and this video is taking the piss!! whats the point!! I think i heard somewhere that Depeche Mode didn't think much of this?? wondered why??? Chris Martin is a twat
When David gahan was asked during a press conference in Germany about his opinion on this tribute he didnt comment and seemed pissed-off; he said " Oh no we don't speak about them"- meaning Coldplay....but then Martin Gore interfered saying: " well it was very nice from them to do this..they said they did it out of respect and love for depeche mode and we appreciate it"...Martin always the most polite member of DM:-)
Wikipedia states that Coldplay made this as a tribute to both Depeche Mode and Anton Corbin. Depeche Mode and Lacuna Coil release their new albums on the same day, how awesome is that? :D
Very similar (walking around dressed in a robe & crown hard not too !!) but is it a tribute or has it just been posted here as ?. Can't wait for the new DM !!!!!!!!!! :)
I love that Coldplay did a tribute video to DM. I have a been a DM fan for more than 20 years and have become a fan of Coldplay's as well. So it was nice to see this.
Been a DM fan for almost 25 years and I happen to like Coldplay also. Coldplay themselves said this was their attempt at a video tribute made out of love and respect for Depeche Mode. So let's give these guys a break and try not to compare them against DM because it is obvious DM is in a completely different league altogether. Good song by the way!
What can i say...I've read lots of negative comments not only there.I'm also a hugh fan of DM,but i like the tribute very much (: Coldplay is a good band and it's nice to see their respect for DM (:
i didnt read all comments, i dont drink coldplays water also, opps i mean, dont listen to their song as well. as i understand AC is managing their video like he did for Dm, am i right?
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
The most tasteless tribute ever made.
DM deserves so much more,but i guess that`s all Coldplay can achieve.Pathetic...I pray they never do a thing again that connects their name with the genuises of DM and AC
It's just a video tribute -- showing that Coldplay and Anton are fans of DM, but the songs sound too different to be compared as better or worse. They're both great bands, and both great songs.
Great video, and elegant tribute by Coldplay to both Depeche Mode and Anton Corbijn (video was shot in Holland, Anton's native country). I love both bands, therefore I'm very happy with this video!!
There's some things that are perfect (Enjoy The Silence video is one of these things, so, this video is ugly, I know is a "tribute-cover" video, but come on, the song sucks, Coldplay sucks and lets be honets, Viva la vida album isn't so good as previous Coldplay records.
Coldplay doesn't sucks, neither this song. But I think they are really overrated by the medias. I'm French, and I heard on an advertising :"the brand new album of the best band in the world". Come on, there's no such thing as this ! And if there were a greatest band, that would'nt be Coldplay... but I must admit they're good.
