Man Punched For Singing Coldplay Song
According to Yahoo!/NME, a Coldplay fan was beaten up by a “a little hippie girl” following his rendition of “Yellow” in a karaoke bar. As the unnamed man took the stage to sing the song, a woman reportedly declared: “Oh no, not that song. I can’t stand that song!” She then leaped at the would-be singer, shouted expletives at him and told him his singing “sucked,” while expressing the same opinion of the song, according to a Seattle police report. Let’s hope Apple isn’t recreating this scene 20 years from now…

Good.
He had it coming.
Now if she could just punch chris martin for writing it.
i kicked a puppy into a lake for waging his tail when i played
“yellow”. fucking puppy had it coming
That’s the kind of thing police should just ignore. These things should just take their course.
That dude shoulda been singing Torsofuck - Raped By Elephants
derrr
Im from Seattle, and I actually worked with the girl who clocked the guy for singing coldplay! And yes she was a hippy!
Don’t know what the problem is geez. That song makes me happy. Chris is a special person and the world is a better place for him. I’m sure the audience were very disappointed when the selfish girl, who probably hates herself and wears black nail varnish, brought the performance to an abrupt end. I’m sure you can all calm down by going to church and pledging your allegiance to fairy stories instead of real people who are trying to contribute to the world.
Ah, this got stumbled, hence all the new comments. And I add, epic win, hippie girl.
This song, and band (coldplay) is one of the best songs overall in music history, and that hippie girl is a very selfish and hating person to do that? i mean seriously, who would do that??? She needs to go back to smoking her dope. And for all you people who are saying he deserves that, what is wrong with you? no one deserves that, some of you probably have no life and are just trying to suppress this person we all don’t even know.
I live in Seattle and wish I knew which bar this incident occurred in. I would totally make that my regular bar if I knew which one it was. I’d probably ask the hippy girl to marry me too.
Laikaaa, you have bad taste in music. I’m sorry that I had to be the one to tell you this.
Wow dude, you’re a fucking faggot. Beautiful people helping the world? You really think Chris Martin’s awful, horrible, nearly inconcievably bland music is contributing to the world? You’re an idiot.
Also; why would a hippy hate herself and wear black nail polish? Those are characteristics of EMOS, not hippies.
So that’s three categories you’re retarded in: social labels, music, and contributions to the world.
doesn’t it seem a little sad that this woman has so little control of herself and her emotions that she chose to physically attack a person, who by our own social and legal standards can not hit her back? If you ask me, that’s more than a little ridiculous. But then…you didn’t ask me. I’ll just leave on this. If she’s a hippie my question is: What happened to peace love and harmony?
psh
what social standard? if someone hits you thats grounds to hit them back (socially anyway). women want equality right?
and to the person that said this is one of the best songs in music history - your right to make any sort of decision in any aspect of life should be removed. i hope you dont have a drivers license and you should probably start wearing a helmet. maybe you may like the song but when you compare it to other great songs from music history all you can say about it is that it is a mediocre pop song. it is simple, did nothing to advance music, in fact it did nothing significant for music whatsoever. laikaaaaaaaaaa - youre drooling again.
we knoz alot about music, coldplay is crap. huuurz.
Okay, I don’t like the song, but seriously? If you are at a KARAOKE BAR, you should be fully prepared to have your ears raped. Dude likes stupid music, but doesn’t deserve being punched. Booed off, maybe, but assault is a little much.
Anybody who actively participates in karaoke activities of any kind needs to be punched until sanity prevails. Why do people go out of their way to listen to others screech and bleat renditions of songs that were probably horrible to begin with? There is nothing funny about ghastly singing. Karaoke is an illness of the mind, a mental sickness that requires swift intervention and many blows to the head to break the vicious cycle.
Let me just remind everybody that hippies smell like skunks.
Furthermore, Coldplay should be banned from all space and time, and they should be prosecuted on behalf of humanity for the cruel things they’ve done to the impressionable young minds who’ve been forced to cope with having the lamest bunch of fucking pussies ever to touch instruments shoved all up in their acne covered faces by the same sadistic and merciless mass media machine that brought you Nickleback, Creed, 3 Doors down, Vanilla Ice and O-town.
It’s a travesty.
But most of all, none of this even matters because it ain’t like a hippie’s frail bones and flabby gelatin-like arm muscles could coordinate themselves into anything resembling a punch, and thus would be incapable of damaging anything and anybody enough to matter. The guy probably only quit singing because he was laughing so hard. Wait… no, wait… I take that back… I guess this is a Coldplay fan we’re talking about… in retrospect, my money would have been on the hippie chick…
haha a Coldplay fan got his ass kicked by a hippie chick hahahahahahah
WHO IS COLDPLAY WHY IS A HIPPIE IN A KARAOKE BAR DO THEY SERVE POT AND ACID
Man, have hippies changed..
she should punch chris martin.
and the rest of the members.
i agree with signore uugh. that mass media machine never taught us how to spell “nickel”.
Any and all rules, laws or social conventions become null and void where Coldplay “music” is involved. Chris Martin is a spawn of Satan. If you like Coldplay, you have awful taste in music and should stick screwdrivers deep into your ears. You are not entitled to an opinion on any subject ever again, nor may you participate in anything involving any measure of creativity or artistic integrity so long as you live. You probably have no soul either.
If you don’t hate Coldplay with a burning passion, your opinion is wrong.
Fact
Bunch of f-tards. The issue isn’t the band. That girl is psycho.
If I bitch-slapped a girl for singing karaoke in a karaoke bar, I’d be locked up. Same should happen to her. Spoiled arrogant tuna boat.
I agree with Jo. What if someone punched you for singing your favorite song? You’d want them locked up, right?
whats so bad about coldplay? why does everyone in America hate them?
People hate Coldplay because they have taste in music and because Coldplay SUCKS.
Popularity does not necessarily mean a good thing, especially when you understand that the masses are asses.
that chick must have been hammmmmmered.
elephant talk…look it up, great band, coldplay has nothing on the greats, they will fall in the flash of the pan like nickelback, the bay city rollers, and hall and oates, however, hall and oates still tour…lmao
to uugh: Maybe by the time you come of age to drink you’ll have loosened up and might even have friends that invite you out to a bar to kick back and have fun. Getting sloshed and singing karaoke is fun. Ya, most people can’t sing and it sounds terrible, but even though 98% of the people singing karaoke can’t sing, 1% can sing and are having fun, and the other 1% are karaoke all-stars who think it will get them a music career… it’s still a fun bar activity.
I agree with all of the people saying that Coldplay is not a good band. However, I’d much rather hear Coldplay karaoke than say… Dream Theater. Dream Theater is a fucking terrible band. Coldplay is a great band compared to those wanks.
Finally, the hippy chick. Selfish little cunt. You can’t stand a song so much that it makes you run up onstage and punch a stranger? Fuck you. I hope the guy sues you and when you have your wages garnished for the next 30 years you learn to have self control.
I would love to reward that Hippie Chick with an evening of carnal bliss for her actions.These things should not go unrewarded.I’d go down on her even if she has a full bush.Seeing as how most Hippie Chicks are all natural and such.She deserves a good munchin’ for dusting his lame ass off.And I would love to be the one to do it.
I like coldplay!
To Jack:
Whoa now. Dream Theater is an insanely talented band and to say that Coldplay is better than them makes you just as much of an ass clown as Chris Martin himself.
Id rather be punched than hear Coldplay.
I’m surprised some hippie chick got up and cracked him instead of the owner cutting the power and stabbing himself in the eye for owning said establishment. Take a hint from japan, make em buy a room and do it in isolation. At least then the only way a hippie going to knock someone out is when she pulls her hand of the carb of the six foot bong thats being ripped in her room.
The reason why they get so worked-up about Coldplay is because they are so desperate to validate themselves and make out they are special and better than other people. They obviously have never written a song themselves though.
Interesting that the homosexual closet-case calling himself “To Iggy” didn’t object to me saying he believes in fairy stories. He’s probably in church now praying to floor asking for forgiveness for what he’s been indoctrinated to believe is wrong. Interesting that, isn’t that what people are trying to do when they want to shout about hating Coldplay - to try and prove they’re not indoctrinated by the mass media? If they knew anything about writing music and putting creative endeavours in perspective they wouldn’t waste their time with hate. It’s probably because they feel powerless in this world, like the hippy chick.
Hah, my cousin (off duty police) was at the bar when this happened. What they don’t say is that the little hippie girl was hopped up on drugs and it took several bouncers and my cousin to drag her outside and subdue her.
dude, coldplay is the best fucking band in the world, fuck yall.
hahaha at least she gave him a real reason to qq
As a huge fan of music I feel I must interject a bit here. First and foremost this situation is just ridiculous. Guess what hippy bitch, you are in a public place more than likely you are going to see or hear something you don’t agree with. Welcome to life. If you hear a song you don’t like in the grocery store are you going to punch the cashiers too? You either need to lay off the drink so you an maintain self control or lock yourself in a room so us regular people don’t have to deal with you. The other point I’d like to make is to the people who say Coldplay sucks and anyone who likes it sucks. First of all instead of just saying they suck maybe you should act a little intelligent and explain why they suck. What is it you don’t like? just saying they suck makes you sound like a moron with no credibility. Also those saying that they are the such a great band. Sorry but Coldplay is not as amazing as you think. Sure they have some good tunes, but there are a million better bands outside of that “popularity” bubble you live in. I respect any band that actually tries and is not in it primarily for the fame and money. I believe Coldplay deserve a little respect for their efforts. Just because they got popular is never a reason to turn your back on someone who worked hard to get there. On a side note I in fact do not have bad taste in music, I challenge anyone to a duel who says different.
turds dripping anuses and glory holes. thats what coldplay and all of you faggots remind me of. you really think anyone cares about what any of you have to say about this. or about that stupid dready hippie bitch? you can all suck my fart
