I was listening to this today, and holy crap I could actually hear this song on the radio and with a video. Fix You and Speed of Sound are the only others I can do that with, so I'd bet that Swallowed in the Sea will be X&Ys third single.

lol total guess then ... i think it could be a single but so could most of the songs on the album .. i think it will be White Shadows and maybe Swallowed In The Sea as the 4th song from the album

I hope White Shadows, but it doesn't seem like a Radio song to me. Square One may be, but other than that... maybe A Message or Low? Low is good. I'd bet that as 4th.

actually yeah A Message would be a really good single .. i don't think Square One will be a single although its a great song

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

i highly doubt swallowed in the sea would be a single

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

 

Adds more echo OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

It will totally ridicule Coldplay's music with those lyrics.

Listening to it the other day, it actually follows the same formula as "Fix You"(start out slow and simple, add an extra instrument or two after the first chorus, after second chorus go all-out, return to simplicity during final verse), which everyone knows is going to be a single, so I doubt the boys would release 'Swallowed' if "Fix You" was already out, but in a not-terribly-parallel universe, I suppose I could see this song in "Fix You"'s place.

 

I think "White Shadows" is a given for #3; "Square One" lacks something, and I love "Low", but the alck of melody should automatically negate it as a single(you can't really hum it; what good's a Coldplay song on the radio if you won't be humming it afterward?), plus the wise order of singles is to alternate between ballads and rockers -- and "Fix You" ain't no rocker.

i don't know which one it'll be, but talk is going to be a single.

 

and the video will be.. better be.. mind boggling.

so many songs could be a single and everyone says when a song is released you get sick of hearing it so much but that doesn't ruin a song forever .....

it could be a classic .. and it is nice to have a video to a song ... so there are advantages to releasing a single for fans who've already heard the song .....

we're just acting like spoilt children :P

i just watched Coldplay X&Y Inside Track on VH2 and they were talking about a few of the songs and how they made them ... nothing that already hasn't been heard but anyway they didn't go through all of the songs on the album and i was thinking the songs they did go through are possible releases ... no Swallowed In The Sea... they were:

 

- Speed Of Sound

- X&Y

- Square One

- A Message

- Talk

- Fix You

 

maybe they are just the songs they could tell stories about but i don't know they sound like potential singles to me :D and we know Speed Of Sound and Fix You are singles already :P

they should realease talk or a message :rolleyes:

i think they could release both ... it'll probably be 4 singles from the album seeing as theres so many great songs to choose from :)

i don't see X&Y being released though so it could be that A Message and Talk are both released :D

I hope A message is released... I like Square One and Talk but not as much as the other songs...

 

They probablt talked about X&Y because it's the Albums title........

I want Talk to be released.

 

It's so good :)

i think the 4ft will be talk.it is good for the radio.

Nooo, Twisted Logic should be. ;)

Most radio jocks in my country seem to like to play White Shadows. I've heard it over 6 times now, and it's not even a single. That's pretty rare.
