Chris Martin Continues To Act Upon His Love For The Word "Apple" thumbnail: Chris Martin Continues To Act Upon His Love For The Word "Apple" Apparently and allegedly this premiered during the David vs. David American Idol showdown that we know about thanks to media coverage of how American Idol 's ratings are in the crapper. (We'll watch tonight though! Maybe.)

Coldplay’s iTunes Commercial for “Viva la Vida”
The Modern Age —
Tonight when I was watching my eyeliner-wearing boo, David Cook, win American Idol, I found myself staring at an obvious iTunes commercial.
But who–who–was the band in the commercial? “Uh, is this Depeche Mode?” I thought, until I saw Jonny Buckland’s profile and subsequently squealed, “OMG, it’s Coldplay. Oh man!”

Coldplay’s new “Viva la Vida” iTunes commercial
Pop Critics —
I’m not sure how many of you like Coldplay, but I love them. Give me a round of The Killers, Snow Patrol and Coldplay and that’s an ideal set of music for me.
Well, Coldplay has a new album hitting shelves on June 17th called Viva la Vida (or Death and all his Friends). Unless you haven’t been watching TV lately, you undoubtedly have seen their new music video of the song Viva la Vida on an iTunes commercial.
Yeah, it’s a commercial, but I really love it. Not sure what it is about it…probably the ...

At least by months, we’re officially halfway through 2008. And because I am a blogger and enjoy both creating arbitrary segments of time for my own writing purposes and the compilation of shamelessly subjective lists, I have (another) one of the latter for one of the former. This one’s about music.
