COLDPLAY are going cosmic during their latest album recording sessions. Frontman CHRIS MARTIN stunned his crew this week by asking them to build him a model solar system in the band's new studio.

 

I wonder if he's been enjoying TV starman DOCTOR BRIAN COX's recent series as much as I have? A source said: "Chris likes to create a certain mood when he's in full creative flow. He had a real interest in 18th Century revolutionary politics when he was piecing together Viva La Vida. Now he's really got into the universe. The crew scratched their heads a little when he first came up with the request but they're cracking away now."

 

Sounds intergalactic.

Definitely going to be epic ;) :p

I was also thinking about the whole space-y theme going on in X & Y... You don't think we're going to have an X & Y Pt.2 with LP5, do you? Because, much as I loved it, I think they've definitely moved on - considering how epic Viva was, I think they could make LP5 10 times better (and different) than anything they've done before...

 

On the other hand, intergalactic theme sounds awesome :laugh3: And I suppose 18th century Revolutionary politics sounds like a weird theme for an album but look how incredible VLVODAAHF turned out to be :D Oh well, I'm sure that whatever they do it will be fantastic :D

:3 This is gunna be exciting

Sounds so interesting!!! :dance: I'm excited!! :wacky:

Oh this is cool. I LOVE spacey things :wideeyed:

Wasn't X&Y the spacey album?

Gets interesting and interesting... I'm sure it's gonna be big and once again stunning!

 

But I think it's gonna be a different concept than "spacey" as we know X&Y was, as universe I think it's gonna be somehoe bigger and sot just somehow "space-related"... hard to explain what I mean!

 

But however, Chris' a genious and I can't wait for Christmas (or simply Fall!!!!) to come!

'intergalactic' and 'spacy' doesn't sound 'stripped down'....:dozey:

I'm glad so many other people feel like this whole "solar system" thing is unexpected when all we've heard are phrases like "stripped down." It just seems reminiscent of X & Y and I'm a bit freaked out by it.

 

I totally trust them, because if I had known about their theme for VLVODAAHF, I would've been freaked out too - but look at how amazing that turned out to be. But, just like someone else said, I definitely do not want this to be a continuation of X & Y.

 

I mean, for all we know, he could've asked the crew to build this for Apple's school project or something, right? haha

^ That's called EXTREME QUADRUPLE HELICOPTER PARENTING! :wacky: :freak::freak::freak:

 

And X&Y was the techno album.

Next thing you know, there will be dressed as aliens on stage... And you thought the Viva outfits were bad :dozey:... :P

 

 

A "spacey" album sounds interesting...

^ What and odd thought I had.

^ Chris in an alien costume... I can't decide if that would be cute or disturbing....

^ That's called EXTREME QUADRUPLE HELICOPTER PARENTING! :wacky: :freak::freak::freak:

 

And X&Y was the techno album.

 

As a teacher, I wouldn't put it past extreme quadruple helicopter parents. lol Can you imagine if that's what is really going on??? :laugh3:

Wait, what? Isn't that just The Sun playing on Miller's latest Blog where Chris asked him to build a solar system?! I just figured it was for a child or something, lol, and didn't think much more of it! Mmm...

I'm really not too worried that this could be X & Y part 2 (to me....that would be very worrying), because all the stuff the band has said thus far.

 

A solar system theme or a universe theme or a space theme doesn't have to mean big. Maybe it could be drawn back to how small we all are in comparison to this. I mean...I'm not sure how something like this would work. But I'm praying this is, in no way, another X & Y.
