Coldplay Earns First Billboard 200 No. 1 By Margo Whitmire, L.A. Coldplay's third studio album becomes the band's first career chart-topper and leads a pack of highly anticipated summer sets arriving on this week's Billboard 200. With U.S. sales of 737,000 copies, according to Nielsen SoundScan, the U.K. act's "X&Y" (Capitol) greatly distanced itself from new releases from the Black Eyed Peas, the White Stripes and Shakira, all of whom nonetheless saw career-best sales. The U.S. start for "X&Y" comes on the heels of Coldplay notching the second-highest first week sales in British chart history after its June 6 Parlophone release. "X&Y" post…

If the 3 albums were girls... Parachutes - would be the skinny little indie girl. Apparently boring and depressing but once you got to know her, you would see that she had soul and warmth. AROBTTH - would be the teenage girl starting to develop a certain elegance and style whilst retaining some of the caring qualities of her little sister X&Y - would be the superficial girl. The kind with plastic boobs and a fake smile - there just to please a large crowd. Very little personality but lots of friends.

exclusive album track on TOTP in the next 20 minutes! record!

Tonight at 11 o'clock (English time) you can listen to the Cologne concert on the website of a German radio channel. Just have a look here... http://www.einslive.de/ It's called " Konzertmitschnitt" In German.

Don't forget everybody - the guys are on "Later With Jools Holland" tonight, BBC 2 11.35. I should be back from the concert by then, so I might even catch it myself! :)

For those of you like me who enjoy the Chris and Gwen gossip : ) --- The USA Star Magazine showed pictures of the movers moving them out of their New York 4-story brownstone on (around) May 26th. No pictures of Chris or Gwen, but it said they were there and overseeing it all (Chris was in NY for MTV/VH1). The brownstone sold for 7.5 million.

I have slaved over this DVD for some time now, but it is now finhsed and complete! This unreleased Coldplay DVD hosts the MTV Live UK gig, Manchester MEN gig and all the coldplay videos released thus far. It has look me yonks but finaly it is all finaslied and ready. All recording where taken via Sky Plus+ so they are top notch. If you would like a copy then post here, i acept Pay Pal only and this is a mere £5 to any UK residant, and £7 overseas. i have the pictures of the various menus, and no, the red lines are not in the final version. reply here if you are interested.

Sorry if this has been spoken of before but on the amazon.com there is an interesting take on the X&Y album sequence. X&Y = TWISTED LOGIC, June 12, 2005 Reviewer: Math101 (Ann Arbor, MI) - See all my reviews I'm wondering, has anyone considered that mathematical organization of the album? If you recall the graphing coordinates (X,Y), the x-axis and y-axis, this is the result: (Square One, Speed of Sound) = (X1,Y1) (What If, A Message) = (X2, Y2) (White Shadows, Low) = (X3, Y3) (Fix You, The Hardest Part) = (X4, Y4) (Talk, Swallowed in the Sea) = (X5, Y5) (X&Y, Twisted Logic) = (X6, Y6) I'm wondering if there is some sort of hidden me…

im going to the crystal palace gig on the 27th (...i think) and i badly want to record the show. i have a recorder built into my mp3, but it is two-bob. do you know any really good recording equipement? cheers.

hey i have 2 tickets for Coldplay's gig on Friday 1st July which are going to waste. Dont want to put them on ebay (bastards!) so just looking for face value or best offers. Let me no if your interested. My email address is [email protected] Dave

I've been keeping track of this in a Coldplay thread in a different message board I frequent. I am thinking since this is an all-Coldplay board, that you all would be interested. I am sure some articles have been posted here before, but this is the complete list I have. Enjoy!

Hi. Does anyone know if there is a CD with the song "Ladder to the Sun?" ...Or any other song, for that matter, that isn't found on the Parachutes, Rush, or X&Y.

PLEASE HELP me . i cant find the early version of talk : The new one in xandy it one of my favourite song it is realy great like the other songs

The Hardest Part is X&Y's Warning Sign. Swallowed in the Sea is X&Y's A rush of Blood to your Head. A Message is X&Y's Green Eyes. And somehow Square One is X&Y's Politik, not just cause its the opening track but it ends with the most beautiful ending in both songs. Don't you think? Anyelse you think are comparable?

I know this question is better suited in the gear section but does anyone know the make and model of the Keyboard that Chris is using in the group shot of them playing in their rehearsal space within the X&Y sleeve? I am dying to know. Thanks!

Hey, doesn't it look almost like a PsP??? hehe, I know this is spam but I just HAD to point this out :-p
