Fan-Made Covers for Indefinable Songs

Featured Replies

So, like many Coldplayers, I have some songs which are by Coldplay, yes, but aren't from any specific album. For example, Nappies or the Christmas Messages. I made up the album 'Unreleased Tracks' to put all of these songs in, as they needed to go somewhere, but I wanted an album art. My friend HandyAndy1.36 stepped in at this point with a solution:

He took the original LRLRL album artwork and changed the text to 'Unreleased Tracks' and the hue of the butterfly so that it would not be confused with the actual LRLRL album. I thought this was wonderful, but didn't like the fact it was, ah, pink (also the text didn't centre and it looked too out-of-place). So I made my own:

And then I went nuts, using the concept to make arts for Acoustic Tracks, Covers, General Live, Instrumentals, Interviews, Novelty Tracks and Remixes. If you want to use any of them, they're here, for your convenience:

wow. this is cool. *wants*

I have the X&Y instrumentals but I would really love all the rest! So if someone wants to team up with me to make all these albums real, let me know! :D

heh, wanted to write that too, we want them reeeeaaal :P

But what do you plan actually? If you want I can send you some things that I have but there aren't much of them. Depends what you want too.

I don't know really! :lol:

I guess we can start working on the easiest albums first! :D

Do you wanna try doing the novelty tracks first?

What would that include though?

If I may contribute, I can tell you guys what I had under each of those albums. My Novelty Tracks, for example, contained mostly versions of Coldplay songs which I had reversed. The Scientist was one, of course. It has a really cool sound when you play it backwards. I also had Clocks reversed and 'Life in Technicolor iii', which was Life in Technicolor, Life in Technicolor ii and The Escapist blended into one continuous track. I could tell you the other albums if you want; it'll give you a general idea where to start with what's on it.

What's that? :confused:

"Shrimp and Aubergine" lol- it was great ! i have it, but trying to recall- it was on the Jo Wiley show, right?

Yeah tell us what you had under each one, then I will get them and put them together for a download link which will make all the Coldplay Rarities very easily organized! :wink:

Unreleased Tracks:

Christmas Lights, Christmas Message 2004, Christmas Message 2007, Nappies, A Rush of Blood to the Head [Demo Version], Wedding Bells [Demo Version], Coldplay Dance Anthems 1906 (This is actually a Christmas Message from some year or another, but for a change the video specifies that the song has a name), Talk ii [Demo Version], Death And All His Friends [Demo Version], Harmless [Demo Version One], Harmless [Demo Version Two], Spies [Demo Version]

I think Can't Get You Out Of My Head is also a great cover.

About acoustics I have Politik and Lovers in Japan.

Also I think that VLV Demos CD would be needed too. And some kind of rare song compilation. For example Where is my boy. I think it's a kind of collaboration .
