Bono Comparisons Flatter Chris Martin

Chris Martin tells Radio 1 he’s flattered by comparisons with U2 singer Bono. “Well first of all that description is very nice, but he is on a slightly different level,” the Coldplay frontman said. “If you’re talking about fair trade or Make Trade Fair, we’re just something that’s important to us, we’re not doing it because we want to be spokespeople or because it’s something we feel we should be doing. We see it as an endorsement really, just as if we were sponsoring a soft drink or a pair of shoes.”
