Viva La Vida... demos thread

Featured Replies

I know that i would never put any of these demos elsewhere on the internet.

If somebody did put them on youtube couldn't someone else just report it and get it taken off?

They're quite beautiful, really. Interesting to see how the demos influenced their current works. 'Bloodless Revolution', for example, is almost definitely an early version of 42. You should consider listening, if you have no morals like the rest of us... :uhoh:

 

I don't really want to listen to them and start feeling like I want more, or a finished version, and that's pointless.

Those songs are never going to be complete or released. So I won't bother and let you do your PM plan :P

How about we give it to everyone from 2002-2006.. 'cause we don't know who this the ultimate law is...:P

 

I thinks its an unfair method. I read and post in this thread since it's here through the last days :(

hmm, i agree though that there needs to be a way to 'screen' ppl

Ya know what'd be cruel? If only specific members got the other songs, but everyone else didn't.

 

Agreed. ^

 

It's unfair to refuse these beautiful songs to other Coldplay fans who just don't happen to be online right now, or looking at this thread. Or who are deemed 'not worthy'...

 

ALSO: Hey, hey, hey! No discriminating against the late coldplaying-ers! :(

They probably could. If I had the demos I'd do one of these two options:

 

1. Secretely stash the demos so no one except me would hear them and so only me and the Coldplay boys would hear them. :P

 

2. Burst into the closest news studio and shout loudly and stuff and reveal the songs to the world, awaiting legal prosecution. :lol:

:wink3:

oh i got you :laugh3:

:smug: smart plan!

please tell me you trust me :uhoh:

 

I DEFINATLY trust you!!! :)

however, imo, the join date idea beats the postcount idea...

Even if it was taken off, many people would have already ripped the song during the course of time it was still up.

No matter how hard you try to select people, this is THE INTERNET.

 

It's going to be all or none no matter what you do!

 

And as much as I'd like to hear them, if he said he gave us by far the best of the samples, then I appreciate that and am satisfied. On the other hand, hypocrite that I am, I'll do everything I can to get them if they DO leak, which I sorta hope they don't. :uhoh: Just my 2 cents. ;)

Agreed. ^

It's going to be all or none no matter what you do!

 

QUOTED FOR TRUTH.

I agree too.

I DEFINATLY trust you!!! :)

 

WOOOO :dance:

yeah im with post count also... if we have to decide what select amount of people get it :thinking:

 

Agreed. ^

i myself are a late coldplayer :shame:

im sorry :cry:

i never knew this exsisted till a few months ago and i havent been abel to get off lol

:lol::shame:

Oh, i missed some things i see. The PM solution could definetly work... But question is who's gonna get it and who's not.

 

I'm willing to put my hand on a bible :rolleyes:

I think this is probably the worst idea ever. It's just bad behavior. Even if the demos aren't leaked by "true" Coldplayers, how would the band react to this weird lottery system to get to their illegally-gotten property? :\ And the chances of leaks are pretty much 100%. It's just my 2 cents as someone who rarely posts, but I think this whole thing should be dropped.

I have no avatar cauz i don't need one. And look at my profile. I'm longer here than just 2-3 days.

And if you look in this thread you will find posts of me - for example my Cover i made for everybody here =)

 

I don't want to be excluded - nobody should be excluded =(

*feels excluded* :disappointed:

 

 

 

 

 

 

:p

 

awww :nice:

I was just kidding...:( hence the :P

 

calm down!:P

 

 

Actually, I'm quite upset...when I released Harmless (which some of you don't remember anymore...) I was all happy and willing to share it with every Coldplay fanatic like myself...and now others don't want to share..

 

*takes deep breath*

did you release Harmless :o

^ditto

 

but then again, robmatt himself has around 12 posts and no avy either :laugh3:

 

thats true but you know what i mean :laugh3:

like he proved himself to us by uploading two songs allready :P

i m just trying to be cautious :uhoh:

I completely agree.

 

As much as I'd love to hear these demos, this just reeks of injustice, dodginess and lack of morals. Who are we to judge who's 'worthy' to hear some Coldplay demos?! All or nothing. ^^

i myself are a late coldplayer :shame:

im sorry :cry:

i never knew this exsisted till a few months ago and i havent been abel to get off lol

:lol::shame:

 

Me also. I didnt start liking Coldplay until 2005. BUT I AM ON THIS SITE EVERYDAY!!!!!!
