Coldplay ranked "Top band that help Britons get off to sleep"

"Oh, what's Coldplay whining about now?" asked my friend David, when he heard Coldplay playing in my apartment a few years back. Ever since then I haven't been able to listen to Coldplay. All I hear now is whining!

It appears that Coldplay brings entirely different sensations to Britons though. According to a Travelodge-conducted survey, the top bands/singers that help Britons get off to sleep in a hotel are:

  1. Coldplay
  2. James Blunt
  3. Snow Patrol
  4. Take That
  5. Norah Jones

I don't really know much about the music business, I am guessing it is not really a compliment to be the band that puts people to sleep?

Thanks, Rory Boland, for the tip!
