i think chris was jus messing around...and as far as i know they're playing viva la vida...the were going to be playing violet hill but it changed to viva la vida (unless its changed again)

Maybe they're doing Viva la Vida and Violet Hill, but one of them is that "surprise duet" thing with someone they've never worked with before.

 

I think it would be cool if it was like the Foo Fighters or someone like that. I doubt it, though. This could be something totally unexpected with someone totally awesome, though, so I hope so.

I'm a little worried about how they will perform live. What I noticed with "How we saw the world" (post X&Y) was that Chris chose showmanship over vocals, in that he's running around everywhere but as a result doesn't sing that well.

 

i.e.

I hope it'll be a good performance.

I have just watched an early coldplay concert on youtube,just after parachutes was realeased, and I am fascinated with it,it's coldplay I love.X&y was their industrial money making,good lyrics album, but there is not soul in it, there is no sincerity,art?So, I think that this album could get them where they were on the right road, but viva la vida is their worst song, and in fact it's not created by them, it's david rossi and his song, and fine, sweet chris voice, that's viva la vida, it is not coldplay people, they haven't created it!!!!!!!!!!!!!But, I think yes! would be the best song since parachutes.

OP.. who gives a shiz if other people laugh and make fun of you for liking them.

 

They're awesome..end of.
