The Coldplay Messenger

Thanks, Natascha!!

I wonder when I will receive it. :thinking:

 

They're plugging the song A LOT.

Every other sentence / video ends with "buy it now".

:rolleyes:

Which makes it even funnier when they say they didn't do a lot of promotion for it.

Haha, yes, radio interviews left and right and lots of news and media on CP.com.

I don't mind tho! :awesome:

oh wow that is great! that t-shirt is fab!

I have question everyone :\ do you usually get all coldplay messengers ?

 

Cause i have 2 mails, one at hotmail and gmail account, the funny fact is that usually i dont get coldplay messenger at gmail, always only at hotmail, but the last messenger, not the shirt competition, but the one to win a signed setlist i got at my gmail account :| thats weird is not it ?

Weird indeed!

I subscribed with my hotmail account, I always receive it.
