for some reason i get the feeling from this new prospekt post that they are definately reading the forums here. just the way he said the ACTUAL title of the album is.... AND WHY ARE THEY IN PORTLAND MAINE?

EDIT: sorry about making the poll, ian...i was debating waiting for you to do it :confused:

no no thankyou, we need a forum poll too! I was watching the football :D

I like viva la vida more... DAAHF seems a little out there for a Coldplay album and it will make even more people think all of Coldplays music is depressing and about death.

I'm 99% sure the album is double-titled... but i hope they choose just DAOHF

if it's double-titled then i'm DEFINITELY smacking my forehead and rolling my eyes.

I'm glad you're not expldoing anymore, but now I'm worried about that nasty concussion you'll give yourself!!:laugh3::laugh3:

 

This morning I didn't like VLV because I felt it went against the song titles, but you know? It's growing on me. The contrast occured to me as intentional, even ironic...very Coldplay if you think about it. I'd still prefer DAAHF, but VLV is making more sense. Chris just lost a much-loved Uncle,and maybe he's trying to say that in the midst of death we have to celebrate life. I likie now.

^i never hated VLV, but i don't think it's my favorite album title out there. from sheer sound POV, i like DAAHF much better, but if they decide that VLV fits better and they like it better, then i'm all for that as well.

I like the fact that "viva la vida" is so different, and that it contrasts the fact that all their songs are dark and all. It's got more depth to it than if they just named it "death and all his friends" and make it all so obvious.. and so my chemical romance

I think Death and All His Friends sounds kind of stupid.

 

Anyway, if you have a track by that name, Viva la Vida is kind of funny.

I'm just so tired about all this... I just want to friggin HEAR something!!!!!!!! Bring on Violet Hill! Even a throw away track!

So if they call it DAAHF, we can all go and post on the MCR forum about how dark and emo we Coldplay fans are,lolol. (Of course, most of us will have to use someone else's computer since we're IP banned!:lol:)

 

I'm the one who's always saying if something pleases the band, we fans should be happy for them, so I guess I have to accept any title.:)

Yep.

I still like the meaning of VlV . . .

But DAAHF has a meaning too.

And for the moment we don't really know.

Now I'm hesitating . . . :thinking:

I prefer DAAHF, but like the contrast of VlV . . .

But I stop now !

I'm waiting for more info . . .

Turns out it's both! Nitram spotted that Prospekt changed the entry again.

Coldpatrix says: 'Nonsense and his all friends!'

there shouldve been a 'both' in the poll

Now that's a longass title!!!! But whatever, works for me! Hell, it could be called 'This Is A Piece of Shit, Don't Listen To This' and I wouldn't care.

I prefer Viva la Vida just because im Mexican, but if im honest ive got to say that I like much more DAAHF

hahah soooo true!!But it woul be great if it was both of the names ! Viva la Vida or Death and all his freinds! Sounds cool because they are contrasting one another.

wow... he put quotes around the whole thing so it looks like it really is going to be "Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends" I actually kinda like it.... a lot. THIS IS MORE PROOF THAT THEY ARE READING COLDPLAYING.COM... they saw we misinterpreted the post so they changed it!

 

i guess VLVODAAHF isn't too ridiculous after all!

DAAHF is a bit cold. What's wrong with Viva La Vida?:) (sure, I know - everyone wants the dark, mysterious title - so OK.:whip::dead::nice:)

Maybe, just maybe, it's all in our heads..:P

I like both. That works for the contrast and irony.

 

Yep! This is a good kind of crazy!!!:D

:):)

i like better Death and All His Friends
