June 16, 200323 yr I wanna know if Sparks was ever a single. The Independent gave away a free 4-track "Acoustic" Coldplay CD, and then an almost identical Sparks EP appeared. As you can see the covers are virtually the same, as is the audio content. This information would be useful since this would make Sparks their 5th single off one album. Could mean a 5th single to come from AROBTTH...
June 17, 200323 yr Uk releases, then i don't believe it was released as a single...these are what i have Clocks CD Single 2003 Clocks Vinyl 2003 Clocks DVD Single 2003 The Scientist CD Single 2002 The Scientist Vinyl 2002 The Scientist DVD Single 2002 In My Place CD Single 2002 In My Place Vinyl 2002 In My Place Cassette 2002 Don't Panic CD Single 2001 (europe not uk) Trouble CD Single 2000 Trouble Vinyl 2000 Trouble Cassette 2000 Yellow CD Single 2000 Yellow Vinyl 2000 Yellow Cassette 2000 Shiver CD Single 2000 Shiver Vinyl 2000 The Blue Room Vinyl 1999 Brothers + Sisters CD Single 1999 Brothers + Sisters Vinyl 1999 how-ever other countries, i don't know As for a 5th single Of AROBTTH i doubt it, it's possible, but...most, if not all, bands have this belief that 5 singles is too much off one album to release as singles, but it has happened before...but my guess is they would release something new after the 4th single, to help keep fans interested, 5 singles all from one album...some might say that creativity is running out. :shrug:
June 17, 200323 yr Author In that case, when Don't Panic came out people must have thought they were milking Parachutes.. but then along came AROBTTH.. It'd be interesting if another single came off AROBTTH. Warning Sign, Daylight and Politik are all candidates. Warning Sign - it is rumoured Chris once said they'd never release this as it is his least favourite song on AROBTTH. Daylight would make a good single, possibly even a good video..but it's not a great song. Politik has been played a lot, Grammy's etc.. With the amount of politikal controversy Chris could throw into a video, this one would be an interesting single. Alternatively, there are rumours that Moses or Ladder To The Sun will be released sometime this winter to keep fans interested...but that would mean a new album early next year.. and that simply wont happen. Unfortunately :(
June 17, 200323 yr my guess is they'll take a short break at the end of the year, get together some personal time, tour again for a bit, then do some studio stuff, for a new album at the end of 2004, early 2005?
June 17, 200323 yr Author Yeah, and its the 2 year gap that makes me think a lot of people will lose interest.
June 17, 200323 yr well....possibly.... however most bands take a 2 year gap between albums, they had a gap between parachutes and AROBTTH so they needn't fear losing fans besides, it's more than possible they can do a radiohead. It's not like they're going to be out of the news, what with cry baby oscar girl, and the tours.. who knows
June 17, 200323 yr Author With the rate of new songs coming from Chris at the mo, they'd be fools or just lazy to wait 2 years before releasing another album.
June 17, 200323 yr some of those new songs will undoubtadly be B-sides to new singles, and some for album releases, some for single releases. I agree though, the amount of new songs they have, is vastly superior ro most other bands who have released an album not that long ago... thinking about it though, it could only be another 12 or so months until the next album... they may do a christmas single... :lol:
June 17, 200323 yr Author Seriously, that was an official release.. sort of a thank you to fans around Xmas 2002.
June 17, 200323 yr Rrrright..oook. So new album....How many of the new songs will be B-sides, how many will make the album, reckon any are just for the live circuit
June 17, 200323 yr Author I doubt Idiot will ever make it to an album, its been played live for too long now. Still, Animals hung around and made it to a b-side so who knows.. PErsonally I think Moses, Ladder To The Sun, Solid Ground, Marianne, Poor Me and World Turns Upside Down would make great album tracks, with Gravity and A Ghost maaaybbe getting on there...
June 17, 200323 yr I think i would agree with your songs there i'd also say Harmless will be on the next album
June 17, 200323 yr Author If they ever finish it.. Its been hanging around as a 2-line demo for ages now
June 17, 200323 yr i am aware of that, but it does have some potential, and when they take some time off (as i'm sure they will) they'll finish off songs, write new ones etc...if anything they need some time off to get new songs written and practise them
June 17, 200323 yr no no, not two years. i'd guess another album within the next 12 months thinking about it...when did AROBTTH come out? it's gotta be about a year?
June 17, 200323 yr hmmm...so mid 2004 i would say the 3rd album. gives time for wedding, honeymoon, new songs, touring
June 17, 200323 yr Well he was hardly yours now was he....and be prepared to fight off the girls here for making such a statement....
