Coldplay like songs by Lady GaGa and Jay-Z

Coldplay frontman Chris Martin revealed names of songs he likes so much he feels "jealous" to their authors. The list features such artists as Lady GaGa, Adele, Jay-Z and others.

"When I hear Kings of Leon's Use Somebody or Adele's Someone Like You or Lady GaGa's Bad Romance, it's like: "That's good, I've got to try and do something better than that". It's constant competition but born out of love", claimed he.

Martin added: "Or Jay-Z's Empire State Of Mind".

Earlier Coldplay frontman Chris Martin revealed that he and his bandmates do not care about staying "relevant" any more. Singer explained it by pointing that there is no way to measure how popular they are – so there is no reason to worry about it.

Chris Martin said: "You can't take anything for granted any more. It doesn't matter if you used to be big or used to be famous, you've got to prove yourself all over again. We don't have any immediate touring plans. We've just got to wait and see if anyone is interested in listening to our album".

Coldplay are set to release new album Mylo Xyloto next month.
