That has been Photoshopped (quite well!). I recognize the tiles and graffiti in the background (as the base layer) as, when I was making some bootleg artwork for some of the Coldplay festival shows, I used that on one of them.

 

You're right, Nick... I grabbed it off Google and used layers to build over it.

No it's not Real you can tell by the Letters and i think John made it.

 

"The Alien Radio ... appeared long ago ... full of sound but nothing could be found"

 

I did make this... and I apologize to anyone who felt misled by my artwork postings and lyric submissions. The lyrics are not real - just some I made up on the back of the artwork I made. Nothing more. I hope you all have it in your heart to forgive me. (This is my press conference to apologize)

 

I stand by me hearing snippets of two songs through a celly, however. The rest was, ahem, my imagination.

 

Don't let it be your head....

When can we preorder the album via iTunes? Wasn't it September 12 or something like that? Do you think this is the day the tracklist will be revealed?:)

 

I hope :D

This is mine -

 

Paradise

Great Expectations

Major Minus

Us Against The World

Up In Flames

Car Kids

MX / Hurts Like Heaven

Tomorrow

Charlie Brown

Every Teardrop is a Waterfall

Princess Of China

Up with the Birds

DLIBYH

There are 10 songs I'm inclined to believe will be on the album.

 

1. Mylo Xyloto

2. Hurts Like Heaven

3. Major Minus

4. Paradise

5. Charlie Brown

6. Princess Of China

7. DLIBYH

8. Up In Flames

9. Us Against The World

10. Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall

 

I like to think there'll be at least one surprise on the tracklisting though.

You're right, Nick... I grabbed it off Google and used layers to build over it.

 

Excellent job, I would love it if the actual artwork were like that :)

Why not?

 

Because it's sort of a rule that they release three songs starting with the same letter for every album they make. Chris said it would be 'U' this time.

didn't X&Y have 4 "T's?" i think the T's were Talk, The hardest part, Twisted logic and Till kingdom come...maybe they dont count "the" as a t, but i don't see why the couldn't have 4 U's on the album

My Guess:

 

1) Mylo Xyloto (Instrumental)

2) Hurts Like Heaven

3) Major Minus

4) Princess of China

5) DLIBYH

6) Up In Flames

7) CarKids

8) Charlie Brown

9) Us Against The World

10)Paradise

11)Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall

12)UFO/A Hopeful Transmission (Hidden Instrumental)

I reckon they'll include Mylo Xyloto, Hurts Like Heaven, Major Minus, Paradise, Up In Flames, Princess Of China, Us Against The World, Charlie Brown, DLIBYH and ETIAW if it's a 10-track album. All of those ones have a good reason for being on the album as far as I can see.

 

In case of a 13-track album, I'd hazard a guess at A Hopeful Transmission, Tomorrow and Up With The Birds turning up. But seeing as that's judged on the fact that they're just registered songs and nothing else, I'm less sure of it.

My Guess:

 

1) Mylo Xyloto (Instrumental)

2) Hurts Like Heaven

3) Major Minus

4) Princess of China

5) DLIBYH

6) Up In Flames

7) CarKids

8) Charlie Brown

9) Us Against The World

10)Paradise

11)Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall

12)UFO/A Hopeful Transmission (Hidden Instrumental)[/QUO

There you go folks. This is the most REALISTIC track listing i've seen for MX so far. Probably not in that order but i believe those will be the songs.

I think these songs will definitely be on there (MX, ETIAW, UATW, MM, POC, Up in Flames, DLIBYH and Paradise).

 

THe tracklist as I would have wanted;

 

1. MYLO XYLOTO

2. MAJOR MINUS

3. PARADISE

4. U.F.O.

5. TOMORROW

6. UATW

7. DLIBYH

8. UP IN FLAMES

9. PRINCESS OF CHINA

10.ETIAW

 

I would have been happy with this.

I wish I had photoshop skillz.

 

I used to! Back when I was a journalism student.

 

But seriously it looks really good :D

The album should not start with MX / HLH or ETIAW or POC, it must be CB, Paradise or MM

^ Eno collaborated on this album. There's no way that there's not an intrsumental or ambiance at the beginning of the album. Major Minus, Charlie Brown (or I'm assuming Paradise, haven't heard it yet) would start the album. Ever.

 

I'll bet it's something we haven't heard yet. The album's structure is probably similar to Viva.

Yay! Double post! I love my university's Internet!

 

Maybe it's a sign I should be studying :uhoh:

Do you think Major Minus will be a single?

I don't think so. Maybe later on, but not one of the top singles for sure. If it's a single, I think it will be a really low-key release, kind of like Strawberry Swing. But I doubt it will be.
