My first intro to the band: late 2000 at about 3am watching MTV Insomniac.

"Yellow" queues up Certified Fresh, of course, and that was it for me. I was blown away by the visuals and the lyrics. A rosy cheeked Brit didn't hurt either. Literally bought the album the next day and told pretty much anyone who would listen about this new band, Coldplay. 18 years later they have been with me through love, loss, and life. Their music is invaluable to me and I owe them a lot.
