For the BILLIONTH time, xylobrytes was just made up by some guy lying for attention. It's not even a different word for xylophone, it's a freakin' bug.

 

Actually the word xylobrytes was one of the images captured on the screen when Coldplay played Princess of China so it's not some guy lying to get some attention.

 

:D

 

More convinced? :lol::P

 

Yeah and they have those on their jackets as well :D

 

Great thread.:kiss:

That might just be the agreed split amoungst all material. It's not uncommon. In my band the PRS is split equally (even though I write all the songs) even if the song is played on acoustic guitar and no other members are involved they'll still get the same royalty as me, just because we've all came to that agreement. Each band is different though, you should see Radioheads royalty split lol.

Really? Is it bad?

Really? Is it bad?

 

I guess it's fair. It's just each song is different, seems to me like they've sat around and debated "I made up that part" etc because it's down to the last point, which I can understand but seems to defeat the music/creativity group side of things. Each Radiohead song has a different split. Same with U2.

When new songs are registered with PRS it can take a few weeks for ammendments to be made (i.e Universal to register themselves with the song). PRS gets back-dated so Universal still get their money wither they register today or when the album comes out), I imagine the ammendments will be made soon though.

 

So the registry is for just one song? Or could it be an entire album?

I don't know what MYLO is.

terribly bad .. totally kills team spirit, doesn't it?! :S

Look at Coldplay.

No it doesnt kill it.

Yeah, maybe it is just the bureaucratic part. Who can say they don't split the money?

i'm sorry, i've lead us all off topic :(

Damn sure

 

I am really sure this is the title of the album. Chris has said that it starts with M (two words) and it's hard to spell. Seems like this is it.

Whether I agree or disagree with that, people keep saying he said it was hard to spell, and then saying that Mylo Xyloto or M Xylobrytes isnt hard to spell, but he said it was hard to pronounce, theres a difference. Both are hard to pronounce in the sense that you have to read it a couple times to remember what it says.

Yea true.

Although i didnt had any problems with the Words from the first time.

that guy off facebook is up to his old tricks again

We should denounce him --'

we should

I feel bad that i kinda believed him.

Believed in that Way i said it could be true because it makes sense.

But now...

His Pic is from BBC Radio like Years ago, even the Haircut is different.

He should be banned from internet.

Totally agreed. This guy seems to have some kind of disease. He needs attention all the time, he needs to be recognized. If I could talk to him face to face I would say: "Please, find a doctor as soon as you can! You have a serious problem"...

HAHAHA this man has made himself some real enemies

I feel like it may just be the intro song spelled out, but if not that's great!

 

People read into the titles too much, that's for sure. It's Coldplay, so I'm going to love whatever they put out, regardless.

 

I can't wait to play the crap out of the album -- Lord knows I'm already listening to LP5 releases way too much.

Man?

Its a kid.

Probably 14-16 Years Old.

I agree with whoever said it might be MX

I really like to Troll him back.

Like:

I answer him as some Coldplay Lawyer and get him to be scared as ****.

Look at Coldplay.

No it doesnt kill it.

 

yeah , i know .. they do have team spirit .. but they also have at least agreement for one-era-period ( imho Chris deserves his *bigger* part absolutely) and aren't discussing it after every single song is written .. do u get what i mean?! i guess discussing the topic who worked harder that time and contributed more to one specific song, will create unpleasant environment in a group. or not :\ :) and i am totally pissed by the fact that publishers are getting soo much 50% ..

it's a bit off topic .. srry :D:shy:

Here's some of the song titles I came across (that have never been released by Coldplay, or played live to my knowledge) :

 

NOTE : Some songs use samples of Coldplay songs, others are just songs Chris has co-written with other people. Before anyone asks it's definetly Chris Martin from Coldplay (registered as Christopher Anthony John Martin) I know this because there's only one Christopher Anthony John Martin registered with PRS. I'll write 'Chris Martin' for short -
