Coldplay

Hello, puny imbeciles! While Roadie #42 is on holiday, Roadie #43 apparently deems himself popular/attractive enough to warrant his own thread in a pathetic attempt to distract everyone from sexy picture threads and whining about the lack of Coldplay-related news! He has come to save us from deathly boredom and arguing with ourselves to death! If you missed Roadie #43's drunken introduction, you may read it all here. New blog coming shortly!

I saw the video for Christmas lights earlier and I think it's one of the most beautiful videos I have seen. This has really made Christmas magic for me again! :)

Hi Folks, Any idea if the new single will appear in solid support or just only as a digital download ? Hugs from freezing Belgium :P

Lhuna WikiColdplay page ------------------------------------------- I SHOULD Be So Lucky . . . well, I was by being the first journalist in the WORLD to hear the new track by mega music combo, KYL-DPLAY. That’s right, Pop royalty KYLIE MINOGUE and COLDPLAY have teamed up to record a charity song together to raise money for AIDS victims. The track, called Lhuna, is brilliant — it combines Kylie’s seriously sexy voice with the haunting tones of CHRIS MARTIN. The results are spectacular. Last night, a music insider told me: “This is the THE duet of the year — you don’t get bigger than Kylie and Coldplay. It’s taken a number of weeks but they finall…

My music player (WMP) lists Will Champion as the composer. I'd thought that this was Chris's song. But Will has some good songwriting talent.

Is there already High-Res artwork available for the single? And by that I mean artwork that is larger than 800x800 ;). I've googled but so far no results... :(

nahh not really but probably it's in the top 5 [/random]

Christmas Lights We are aware that the full track and video have already leaked. Absolutely NO direct download links in any part of the public forum, signature or otherwise. Linking to other sites that have it is not ideal but I can't stop other sites hosting or uploading this material. If they want to risk getting into trouble with EMI that's upto their respective webmasters. Please don't put this site or our relationship with ColdplayHQ in jeopardy through impatience. There are only a few hours to go. Ian :)

Can some one please rip!!!

anybody please!

Christmas lights sounds a little bit like A rush of blood to the head song btw......the ending of christmas lights sounds chilling and amazing

No "Christmas Lights" video on YouTube for Germany I can't believe it:angry: I visited the Coldplay Homepage to watch the video of the new song. When I start the videos it shows me :"Not avaliable in your country" What should/can i do?!?

Hi People: (if you are not interested,please DO NOT COMMENT :D ) This idea has been distributed by some latin fans so: Tomorrow : When the song and video is released: All Coldplay fans that have Twitter accounts.

I'm sure some of you are familiar with my xat, http://xat.com/coldplaying Which we used when the forum was down. Theres a youtube application or tab, where we can all watch it together. By it, I mean Christmas Lights. Eh? Feel free to throw tomatoes at me :sad: If so, then let's plan at what time. EDIT: Hours below. Few things to know about xat, when you go there you should change to your name to your username, by clicking the little green guy on the side bar to right. To change your picture, well that's a whole other deal, but the name is important so we know who you are. EDIT: Oh, okay so I just found out it's going to be at 8 .. Wednesday. BET…

Article up with odds to become Christmas no 1: see: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/music/rockandpopfeatures/8174444/Christmas-singles-2010-What-will-be-Christmas-No.-1.html Coldplay are 20/1 and the bookies favourite is the cover of White Christmas by Bryn Terfel @ 16/1 However, they did not count on the support of Coldplayers! We need a concerted effort by everyone to boost sales in readiness for week commencing 12th December in the UK

Sorry.....Im starting a new thread.....I AM SO EXCITEDABOUT CHRISTMAS LIGHTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I live in Australia, and am English. So at the moment Christmas Lights is EXTREMELY poignant. It's snowing like a mofo in the UK for those of you who dont know...and Im in Australia and it's summer. So, 'Im still waiting for the snow to fall, it doesnt really feel like Christmas at all.....' Ive set my alarm for 0615 Thursday morning so I can be online to download the whole song. SO excited I could pee my pantalones......

Coldplay and the Killers get Christmas started (positive 'Christmas Lights' Telegraph review) For almost a decade, Simon Cowell had the Christmas number one locked down. Even Cliff Richard couldn’t shift his talent show winners from their moment at the top of the festive charts. Novelty songs about Santa, reindeer, elves and baby Jesus fell on deaf ears. Recording studios packed away their sleigh bells. Children’s choirs went out of business. But after the success of last year’s rebel internet campaign that saw Rage Against The Machine grind X Factor winner Joe Mcelderry into the pop dust, it looks like the field is wide open again. Two of rock’s biggest bands ar…

Does anyone know how the Daily Mail got their scoop on the story.... Was it a leak from the authorities with whom Coldplay needed permission to shoot? (I'm guessing they needed permission for a stage on the South Bank and a boat moored in the THames for nearly 3 hours in one place). Or was it just good detective work by a pap?

Is it like that for anyone else?

I wonder how Brian Eno let Chris Martin name songs like 'Hurts like Heaven' and 'Every teardrop is a waterfall'... Honestly they seems very umm... Pop sounding songs, not Rock.. Pop. I hope I am proved wrong on this one.

What are the most underrated Coldplay songs in your opinion? Dunno if there is a thread like this, hope there isn't... Here's my list of the songs that I think that should have been singles/released on an album/played live more often... Only Superstition I Ran Away Crests Of Waves Gravity Ladder To The Sun Spies Politik Warning Sign A Whisper Amsterdam Square One X&Y Cemeteries Of London Yes Death And All His Friends

OFFICIAL IDEA: Ok if we get enough people, the idea would be to send in a festive photo of yourself, your family, etc. that I would gather into a video. You can also request to add some text on your picture or anything else special! :D If you are willing to participate, just check yes above and say your name so I can add it to the list below. We are trying to find an estimate on how many people and it would be good to know by about the 5th of December! :thumbsup: THE DEADLINE FOR PHOTOS IS SUNDAY DECEMBER 12! List of people: Technicolor Liver laga Technicolor Sparks Paulinha coldplay hayleequinn

I just don't understand why they would play all these festivals if they didn't have any new material? Maybe that's just me. :thinking:
