Which is better?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coldplay_discography#Music_videos Lists Mat Whitecross as director too? Any truth in there being a video in the works, or is this just assuming that Whitecross that will be directing given that he's done the last 4?

Think the boys could be in trouble after this. What do you think? [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bzNp0N3b1bo]Bloody Stardust - Life Is a Temple [Official Video] - YouTube[/ame]

Hi guys, could someone fix an instrumental to this song, and post it here? That would be awesome. Thank you :D

Coldplay just uploaded it with some artwork, brilliant! [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDj3sorWXbE]Coldplay & Rihanna - Princess Of China (Official) - YouTube[/ame]

Rihanna & Coldplay Laxative & sleeping pills Water parks & iPods Chalk & cheese Just to name a few..

I honestly think this is the worst song ever to make it on a Coldplay album. It doesn't sound like Coldplay. If they make another album, I really hope they don't Ft. anyone other than the band themselves on any of the songs.

Any other suggestions? Imagine if you were Will Champion here. EDIT: Oh yeah, I spelled Welch wrong. Mods?

According to Billboard magazine, Princess Of China is the next Coldplay single and it will be officially released on October 25th. http://www.billboard.com/#/news/coldplay-s-paradise-video-stars-globe-trotting-1005422552.story Coldplay's just-released video for "Paradise," the second single off "Mylo Xyloto," is a pachyderm-filled romp involving a fugitive elephant on a worldwide quest to form a like-species rock band. We guess. Let's see, it starts with "Chris Martin" busting out of a London zoo and stowing away on a flight to South Africa. There, the ambitious elephant gets himself a unicycle and rides out to find three bros already practicing some deep cuts. "Ch…

I really, really like this song! It's brilliant and unique and I love the cultural references (both lyrically as musically). Here's what I've got so far: Princess of China Once upon a time in some other world Somebody had a wedding, (safe?) Fasten their hand, I got to go/on pots of gold I got to go Once upon a time we fell apart You hol…

Which duet do you prefer?

In terms of the story line(i cant believe i just wrote that), in U.F.O they just kinda found each other again and he's hopeful. But then in POC, the next song, THEY BREAK UP? OVER FAME? isn't there like a war going on, how is she famous? I dont know, Am I interpreting it right? Am I the only one who doesn't get it.

I think it's a fantastic song. Most people that say they don't like it are probably just butt hurt because it features a pop singer. The melody is fantastic and the lyrics aren't that bad either.

Because he's like this badass underground indie rocker who has songwriting respect from everyone who knows REAL music but hes not afraid to work with people that are totally stupid like Rihanna and cover Beyonce songs, he probably watches the X-Factor hes just like you and me.

Not only because of Rhinna (she adds to the mess) but its got to be one of the worst Coldplay around (along with ETIAW and Paradise) POC just sounds like a syrupy over produced mess.

Wat?

Hm?

Quite rare for an album track to chart that highly without any promo or official release..no doubt the combo of Coldplay & Rihanna alone is enough for people to download!!

http://www.coldplay.com/oracledetail_pop.php?id=2346&page=0&iframe=true It might get a release later on, but in this case, Billboard just screwed up and nearly all of us fell for it. I knew there was never a PoC Single, otherwise why do you think Coldplay had said NOTHING about a single release until now?

Why song about Princess? King with Queen, no Princess, yes?

Or is it all synths? It sounds like guitar with a reverb effect. Idk. What you think?

if Mylo Xyloto wants to sell more copies in the US they need to promote this song in US radios now, so far MX doesnt have a radio smash and it will definitely hurt its sales... (we live in a singles world now) :cry:

I think it will. He can sing Rihanna's part saying "you" instead of "I." That might work.

When i shouldn't. It is pretty much everything I hate about modern music. needless collaborations, over synthesized beats etc. But I do like the song for some reason. Perhaps its solely Chris Martin (Rihanna doesn't sound too bad though). I think this may have been the same problem long time Coldplay fans had with VLV. 'Viva la Vida...' was the first Coldplay album I bought and only later did I discover their earlier albums. Going into VLV then, I viewed the band as a white blank page. I had no idea what this band would sound like, and I liked it. Having listened to ROBTTH over and over in the build up to MX, I felt confused at first listen. But as soon as I forgot about …
