4. Formation and first years
Chris Martin and Jonny Buckland first met during their orientation week at University College London (UCL) in September The pair spent the rest of the university year planning a band, ultimately forming a group called Pectoralz. Guy Berryman, a classmate of Martin and Buckland, later joined the group. By 1997, the group, who had renamed themselves Starfish, performed gigs for local Camden promoters at small clubs. Martin also had recruited his longtime school friend Phil Harvey, who was studying classics at the University of Oxford, to be the band's manager. Coldplay have since accepted Harvey as the fifth member of the group. The band's line-up was completed when Will Champion joined to take up percussion duties. Champion had grown up playing piano, guitar, bass, and tin whistle; he quickly learned the drums (despite having no previous experience). The band finally settled on the name "Coldplay" which was suggested by Tim Crompton, a local student who had been using the name for his group.

Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry You don't know how lovely you are
I had to find you Tell you I need you Tell you I set you apart
Tell me your secrets And ask me your questions Oh, let's go back to the start
Running in circles Coming up tails Heads on a science apart

Nobody said it was easy It's such a shame for us to part Nobody said it was easy No one ever said it would be this hard
Oh, take me back to the start
I was just guessing At numbers and figures Pulling the puzzles apart
Questions of science Science and progress Do not speak as loud as my heart

Tell me you love me Come back and haunt me Oh, and I rush to the start
Running in circles Chasing our tails Coming back as we are
Nobody said it was easy Oh, it's such a shame for us to part Nobody said it was easy No one ever said it would be so hard
I'm going back to the start
