Linked Data Principles

1. Use URIs as names for things

2. Use HTTP URIs so that people can look up those names.

3. When someone looks up a URI, provide useful information, using the standards (RDF, SPARQL)

4. Include links to other URIs. so that they can discover more things.

dbpprop:abstract 'Coldplayare a British alternative rock band formed in London, England in 1998. The group comprises vocalist/pianist/guitaristChris Martin, lead guitarist Jonny Buckland, bassist Guy Berryman, and drummer/backing vocalist/multi-instrumentalist WillChampion. Coldplay has sold 50 million albums, and are also known for their hit singles, such as "Yellow", "The Scientist","Clocks", "Speed of Sound", "Fix You" and "Viva la Vida". Coldplay achieved worldwide fame with the release of their single"Yellow", followed by their debut album, Parachutes (2000), which was nominated for the Mercury Prize. Its follow-up, A Rush ofBlood to the Head, won multiple awards such as NMEs Album of the Year. Their next release, X&Y, received a slightly lessenthusiastic yet still generally positive reception. The band's fourth studio album, Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends, wasproduced by Brian Eno and released again to largely favourable reviews, earning several Grammy nominations and wins. All ofColdplay's albums have enjoyed commercial success. Coldplay's early material was compared to acts such as Radiohead, JeffBuckley, U2, and Travis. Since the release of Parachutes, Coldplay have drawn influence from other sources, including Echo andthe Bunnymen, Kate Bush and George Harrison on A Rush of Blood to the Head, Johnny Cash and Kraftwerk for X&Y and Blur,Arcade Fire and My Bloody Valentine on Viva la Vida. Coldplay have been an active supporter of various social and politicalcauses, such as Oxfam's Make Trade Fair campaign and Amnesty International. The group have also performed at various charityprojects such as Band Aid 20, Live 8, Sound Relief, and the Teenage Cancer Trust.Coldplay er et engelsk band, der i genre svinger imellem pop og let/alternativ rock. Coldplay er af mange udråbt som et af devigtigste bands i slutningen af 1990'erne og starten af det nye årtusinde, og nogle sammenligner endda deres status med bådeRadiohead og U2. Bandet består af:*Chris Martin: Forsanger, piano, keyboard, guitar *Jon Buckland: Guitar, harmonika, sang*Guy Berryman: Bas, synthesizer, harmonika, sang *Will Champion: Trommer/percussion, piano, sangColdplay har flere gangeværet i Danmark. Blandt andet var de et af hovednavnene på Roskilde Festivalen i 2003, i forbindelse med udgivelsen af deres tildato, nok mest anerkendte album A Rush of Blood to The Head. Senest de har lagt vejen forbi København var i 2005 på deres

Florence and the Machine is the recording name of Florence Welch and a collaboration of other

artists who provide backing music for her voice. Musically Florence and the Machine's sound is

generally referred to as soul inspired indie. Florence and The Machine's music has received

praise across the British music media, especially from the BBC who have played a large part in

Florence and The Machine's rise to prominence by bringing them into the spotlight as part of BBC

band's debut album, Lungs, was released on 6th July 2009. The band's debut single was "Kiss

with a Fist". The song will be used in the soundtrack of the upcoming film Jennifer's Body. The

follow up single "Dog Days are Over" was recorded with no instruments in a studio the "size of a

the 2009 award by folding clothes.
