Alternate X&Y cover?

Hey guys,

 

It seems like the lucky folk in Japan have done it again, they've got some new X&Y cover. Instead of the baudot code with the dark blue background, it's instead white. Does anyone know why it's like that, and if there's anything extra included in it or what not? There's still the original Japanese X&Y CD with the 2 bonus tracks, but I'm confused as to what this new one's about. It apparently came out on September 30th.

 

To get an idea...

^ It looks pretty with the white background..

I think we have a larger fans group here in China.......

and it says the hidden track is not how you see the world...it should be out by now..anyone have it?

japan gets flippin everything.

wow...I wish I could be a japanese girl to have it... :P

japan gets flippin everything.

 

Yeah...why is that?? :/

yeah i want extra things here! :( oh well, if we were in japan we would have to learn english to get the coldplay-ness anyway

Why does Japan have always different versions?

 

Its so that the Japanese don't just buy cheaper import copies from the rest of Aisa, I do believe.

but why did they add new songs then?

very sharp - much better than the blue background

but why did they add new songs then?

 

 

Japanese businesses can import CDs from abroad, the same ones that you or I have, for cheaper than a Japanese produced CD, so to encourage the buying of the Japanese product, they often have a unique addition, such as different artwork or an extra song or two.

It's actually not How You See The World, that's the first Japanese release, the second one has Poor Me on it, recorded live at the Hollywood Bowl (the same one that was one of the b-sides on the Fix You single), yeah, the one with the crazy monkey screaming lol.
