Chris Martin talks about Coldplay albums
“We are only going to do 12 proper albums, and that’s real…less is more. And for some of our critics, even less would be even more. It’s really important that we have that limit. There’s only 12 and a half Beatles albums. There’s about the same Bob Marley, so all of our heroes. and also having that limit means that the quality control is so high right now, and for a song to make it, it’s almost impossible, which is great.”
He added, “I don’t know where the songs come from. I don’t know where the ideas come from, but that’s just been coming to me for about four or five years now. Like, ‘You have to finish like this,’ and I trust that just like I trust the songs. So if we do something together after that creatively beyond touring, then it’ll be something different, or it’ll be a side thing, or it’ll be a compilation of things we hadn’t finished.”
A reason for Chris’ decision to retire from making albums is that, to make a “great” project, “it’s such a lot of wrangling of people,” he added, “and I want to give the others some of their life for themselves.”
