I keep hearing a song through muzak at places like riteaid and cvs pharmacy, that sounds like coldplay, but i've listened to every song of their's and its not them. Can someone please recommend a band or solo artist that could easily be mistaken for them... bands such as embrace, keane, or the doves. I do not know the lyrics, but it could be"but i'm running out of time, i'm running out of time.. a repeated chorus, but i looked up those lyrics, and no luck.. just imagine chris martin singing them... any suggestions?

Did this previous answer to your post not help? I've included the lyrics to these in case you weren't able to view the videos.

HOT HOT HEAT- "Running Out Of Time"

Witless, humorous conversatoin
Has filled me up like an old gas station
I'm wallowing in a pool of gasoline

Self appointed sherrif of a popular ghostown
I'm open to bribes but I've arrested no one
I'm galloping to meet my bride to be
She'll woo the saloon then sing us both to sleep

But... I'm running out of time
I'm running out of time
I'm running out of time
I've run out of time

Drop dead gorgeous art history drop out
Thought of her fatherought to pay her to clear the whole shop up
She carries her cameras in hand to complete the look

Screenplay players co-writing screenplay
Cotton candy fot the eyess but cotton balls for the brain
He thinks to himself, "Thank God the bar's not too high"
Just look at his face and then you'll see why

But... I'm running out of time
I'm running out of time
I'm running out of time
I've run out of time

Hollywood waiter with a chip on his shoulder
Only break has been his back and yet he's just getting older
He's washing his clothes in a sink of self pity

Retired ball playerguest hosting a talk show
Earned a trophy and a wife and twice he's won the lotto
I'm running aways but don't know who from or why
Just look in his eyes and then you'll see why

I'm running out of time
I'm running out of time
I'm running out of time
I've run out of time

I'm running out of time
I'm running out of time
I'm running out of time
I've run out of time


SIMPLE PLAN- "Running Out Of Time"

It's just another day,
And it feels like you're still running late
Because the times are going to change,
And you're stuck in your old mentality

You can try to lead us on,
But there's no one else to blame
Won't be left to clean the mess when you're gone

We're running out of time!

We're running out of time,
And you just don't get it
Now you're watching people die,
And you still don't care
We're running out of time,
And you just don't get that this is how I feel
There's a million things I hate about you

It's just another battle,
When you exercise your authority
When the dust is finally settled,
Will you catch up with reality?

You've been waiting way too long
Now it's time for us to pay,
And we won't be looking back when you're gone

We're running out of time!

We're running out of time,
And you just don't get it
Now you're watching people die,

And you still don't care
We're running out of time,
And you just don't get that this is how I feel
There's a million things I hate about you (about you)

About you
About you (about you)
About you

I don't want to hear the same excuses (don't want to hear)
I don't want to here the same excuses (don't want to hear)
I don't want to hear your story

We're running out of time,
And you just don't get it
You're watching people die,
And you still don't care
We're running out of time,
And you just don't get it
If everybody dies,
Will you still don't care?

We're running out of time,
And you just don't get it
Now you're watching people die,
And you still don't care
We're running out of time,
And you just don't get that this is how I feel
I don't want to think about...
This is how I feel

There's a million things I hate about you
There's a million things I hate about you

I don't know the song but Mat Kearney sounds like Chris Martin from Coldplay.
