RadioMad Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 That's a bit poor innit? They could've at least added a live b-side or A Spell A Rebel Yell... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outrune Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 ...or even LiJ acoustic! I mean, there's practically zero incentive to spend money on this physical single release when: a) Viva la Vida became available to download almost 3 months ago b) The b-side can be officially downloaded for free c) VLV topped the charts ages ago without it and is now old news :\ Don't understand what's really going on with Coldplay and their single releases this time round. Also, two singles but only one b-side track so far (ASARY), compared to about 2 or 3 per single previously! :stunned: But looking at wikipedia, I am reassured to note that there is always 3-4 months in between each single for their previous albums (compared to a couple of weeks in between VH and VLV!!). So hopefully they get it right with the next one soon :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So hopefully they get it right with the next one soon :D The thing is that in EU the promo track 4 the album was Violet Hill. Was released on May 5th for free download and on May 9th on physical single with as B-Side: "Lost? (Acoustical)" It Seems that "Viva La Vida" was the promotion song in the USA (maybe in Ausie too, I don't know). To my opinion, it seems less strange to have now viva la vida on single in EU.

anniea89 Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 I was really pissed off that this wasn't available in Australia. It peaked ages ago, at number 2 but it may have gotten t number 1 with a physical release. Plus, how are people like me who don't download singles supposed to support the band?
