Jason has some thoughts about Tuesday’s much maligned Colplay gig for AOLMusic. I’m told the host also made a joke about Apple (no one jokes about Apple!). J notes that Chris Martin rips off Pixies’ “Where Is My Mind” on the “Fix You” verses. I hear it, but of course it’s is the oldest hook in the book. Gwen and Rivers know what I’m talking ’bout. Hear how Divide & Kreate expertly mash the descending vocal scales from their recent hits:

Still need an MP3 of “Fix You” without Seth Cohen in the background! C’mon people, you know where to reach me. (Last night’s O.C. finale … so much drama. Are you paying attention Federlines?)

And speaking of Coldplay, they’ll be on SNL‘s finale this Saturday with host Lindsay Lohan. Mark wants to know why NBC.com is using such an old promo pic (below). Don’t worry about Lindsay though. I’m sure Tina and Amy will fix her.

  1. Does that picture mean that both Karen Carpenter AND Coldplay will be performing?

  2. Looks like something that will be painful to watch… will she be able to last through the whole show? Or will she collapse from malnutrition and exhaustion during the opening monologue? She looks like she needs to be hooked up to an IV or something.

    At least (hopefully) she won’t be attempting to sing, too. The last thing we need is another Ashlee disaster… or, maybe that’s just what SNL needs… an infusion of humorous content.

    Y’know…it’s sad really. I think L.L. had potential, but she decided she’d rather be Paris Hilton than Ann Margaret.

    Once you get the Seth-less “Fix You”, could you please clue the rest of us in on its location? Thanks alot. I wish I was patient enough to wait for the album release, but – I’m not.

    anyone know of a link to White Stripes “get behind me”???

  6. that is the worst mash-up i’ve ever heard. not because of the songs, but did they put any effort into that whatsoever?

  7. That would be a great mash-up if it weren’t so…. tone deaf.

    Thanks all the same.

  8. This promises to be good: L.L. also says she once wanted to marry Tom Cruise. Poor Katie Holmes. What will she do?

  9. Wow, I hadn’t seen a recent photo of LL. That. Poor. Girl. I hope this is just a phase.

  10. Those are Mischa Barton arms, not Lindsay Lohan arms.

  11. I think NBC used the old picture of LL, because her new look is frightening.

    Mischa Barton looks like Roseanne compared to Lindsay. This girl needs help. No wonder she had to rush to the ER room twice in a year. At this speed, she’s gonna end up dead. I mean, those pictures speak for themselves. Forget about feeding third world abies. We should start by raising money to feed poor Hollywood teen actresses with some serious weight issues….

    Oh My God! Topher Grace reads this site? My name is also Christopher but shortened it to Isto… Why shorten it to the first or last part when the middle works too.

    Fuck the new Coldplay. New White Stripes just leaked yesterday! Where’s all the blog talk? There’s no way I could be hearing this before Stereogum!?!?!

    L Ho-han had her breast implants out recently — and butt implants put in. No fooling, heard it from a reliable source Wednesday night. Also heard she’s now being called Lindsey BLOW-han.

    Hollywood is in serious need of a backlash — we need a new starlet with serious T&A to hit the scene. These girls are all going to die!
