OK so we should be hearing some tracks pretty soon hopefully, but by this point we've gotten a lot of descriptions of tracks on the album. Minus Violet Hill and Viva la Vida as we've heard them, what songs are you most excited to hear?

 

From day 1 I've had a good feeling about Cemeteries of London, it was my favourite title in the original list and by the sounds of it it'll be this albums "White Shadows", my favourite track on X&Y. Though Chinese Sleep Chant also sounds like it'll be great.

Life In Technicolor Sounds Really Cool

Yes! sounds cool because its ' so dark its disturbing'

42 because its the best song maybe

I put "cemeteries of london" because it was the most intriguing song title off the back, and it was a possible first singl. "42" because everything about it seems epic (the one song I absolutely don't want to be dissapointed by) and "the escapist" because coldplay is awesome at ending albums, and it has a neat title.

Im curious about Life In Technicolour ("Baby its a violent world")

 

Cemeteries of London will be incredible no doubt

 

Lost! Ive heard 30 secs, its incredible, a lot like What If

 

42 will be intersting, either great or horrible

 

Lovers In Japan...still confused about this one

 

Reign of Love sounds like a harder rock song but with beautiful lyrics

 

Yes will be maybe the most Coldplay-ish song on the album

 

Chinese Sleep Chant (talk about Coldplay music putting you to sleep) LOL, I kid

 

Strawberry Swing, I hope its better than what the title implies (Im thinking 20's swing music)

 

Death and All His Friends... I heard if you dont like this song, you die!

 

The Escapist could be pretty cool, no idea what it might sound like though

 

 

 

So basically Im looking forward to them all

 

 

 

 

And Famous Old Painters when its released!!!

lost! is like what if?? omgshhh i love that song. where did you manage to hear the clip of it?

I said Death and All His Friends, only because I read it has a piano bit that sounds alot like the Doobie Brothers and I think it will be more upbeat than most people expect. I like Coldplay when they are upbeat.

Lovers In Japan is on Itunes Store France

 

If you pre order the album for 9€99, you'll get the acoustic " LOST " as a bonus when the album is on line

 

AND RIGHT NOW.. You get " Lovers In Japan " acoustic (that they make you pay)

 

So " Lovers In Japan " acoustic should leak pretty soon

'Death and all his friends' sounds like how I feel in life right now!

42.

Life in Technicolour

cemetries of london

lost

Strawberry swings

Reign Of Love

The Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything. 'Nuff said.

 

EDIT: Okay one more thing maybe: Anyone remember the quote where Chris Martin said that his favourite Coldplay song ever was going to be on Viva La Vida? I think it's 42. In fact, I'm pretty damn sure. Besides, pretty much every reviewer so far has said that 42 is the best thing since sliced bread. Possibly even better.

 

EDIT2: You got the album title wrong in the poll btw, it's VLVODAAHF, not VLVODAHHF.

life in tech

 

CD openers become (most likely) concert openers so im excited about this one

 

Lost! Ive heard 30 secs, its incredible, a lot like What If

that 30 seconds was for 'Lost?' which is just the alternate version (or piano version) of 'Lost!'. the album version should be compltely different sounding. but for me life in technicolor (i love album openers), 42 (because of all the hype), and reign of love (just because i've liked the descriptions so far).
