Bombadil Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 So do any of you guys have any idea why they chose to make Chinese Sleep Chant a hidden track? Let alone have it in the middle of the album? Also, has any of you found a connection between Yes and Chinese sleep chant? Anyway, I'm glad they decided to make it this way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a2iel Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 yeah i was wondering, cause, i know they have said the whole 2 x 1 price and stuff... but i thought they had done some cool joining of songs.. but one ends and then the other starts, like 2 complete different things..

blackchickintheback Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 They basically wanted to keep the album short and have people get more bang for your buck, basically. I actually don't see why they stuck CSC after Yes but I'm not complaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattypclaret Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 i normally hate it when bands do this. mainly because one of the songs i think is good and the other is shit. all of the ones on this album are great so i dont mind listening to both and somehow it just fits with the album. although i do find it a little bit annoying that if you want to listen to a particular track you have to wizz through one of them. it just would of been more convienent to have them seperate. but it does work. lol :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedi Leo Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 I like the Buy two, Pay for one concept :D I think Chinese Sleep Chant is a hidden track because it is not a fully developed song. It sounds more like Coldplay experimenting with new sounds and Chris going off with some weird repetitive lyrics. I personally love it. It is very hypnotic!

CSC is hidden song because it not quite befits under conception of album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obi Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Am I the only one who found the two tracks in one thing pointless? Just having two seperate tracks would have been fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wangmaster Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 I might be wrong, but I think I read somewhere that Chris said there are conjoined songs on VLV to encourage people to listen to the whole album, and not just skip through to particular songs.

EmmaLouiseSmyth Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 I think i might separate these two songs, i quiet like CSC, but Yes is my least favourite on the album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's important to see albums as cohesive pieces of work but if you find a track unbearable/dislike it you shouldn't have to sit through it if you don't want to.

EmmaLouiseSmyth Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 On itunes, Add the song to the library again so you have 2 copies of yes. Then click on the first one and go to "get info" there click on the Options tab, and enter 4:04 in the ending time. And then on the second track, go to the options on get info and put 4:05 in the starting time. Name that one CSC. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just realised I only have VLV on iTunes. How annoying. I might have to download it again elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
