Seriously, a lot of those titles have been mentioned only once, some of them a long time ago. You can keep guessing for fun of course, but really, the real thing will be very different anyway. Golden Arrow, Car Kids, ... will possibly just be the new Left Right Left, etc.

 

And why are people saying they want to hear Car Kids so desperately? We don't know anything except the title, who knows if it's not that good... :shrug:

 

Its because it is just such a great title and I desparately want to see how they done the song. I know you could say this about every song but this one is just different for me :cool:

Mylo Xyloto could be a whole song based off the clip we hear of MX before Hurts like Heaven

 

I'm pretty sure I read that they have something like 50 songs that are in some form of development so most of this album could be songs they haven't even hinted at yet. As long as it includes Charlie Brown and Hurts Like Heaven i'll be a happy camper.

 

Good point, I always thought that 40 seconds was a bit short for an album opener :D

Here is my ever changing tracklist guess:

 

1. Mylo Xyloto

2. Hurts Like Heaven

3. UFO

4. Car Kids/Rex

5. Up With The Birds/Alien Radio

6. Golden Arrow

7. Charlie Brown

8. Princess Of China

9. Us Against The World

10. DLIBYH (I wish we knew what this was called!!!!)

 

What do you all think?

7. Charlie Brown

8. Princess Of China

9. Us Against The World

10. DLIBYH (I wish we knew what this was called!!!!)

 

What do you all think?

 

I think there will be at least a couple more tracks and hopefully they stop combining two songs into one track. Reign of Love deserved it's own spot.

Yeah I hoped that but Guy & Will said on Radio 6 Extra there would be 10-11

Didnt the Oracle or someone say that MX is gonna be tired into Hurts like Heaven rather then being just a quicky song?

In no particular order, I'd go for something like this: -

 

Mylo Xyloto

Hurts Like Heaven

Major Minus

Moving To Mars

Charlie Brown

Great Expectations

A Hopeful Transmission

Paradise

Princess Of China

Tomorrow

U.F.O

Us Against The World

My shot at it:

 

1 Mylo Xyloto/Hurts Like Heaven

2 Alien Radio

3 DLIBYH

4 U.F.O.

5 Charlie Brown

6 Princess of China/Aiko

7 Us Against the World

8 Golden Arrow

9 Up With the Birds

10 ETIAW

I desparately hope we get some hidden tracks and double tracks like Viva

^ I hope so too :wacko:

13-14 tracks would be very satisfying indeed!!!!!

Well X&Y had 13 tracks, and Viva La Vida had 13 tracks if you include hidden tracks, so HOPEFULLY they keep this up, even if it is in hidden tracks

Speaking about Hidden Tracks.

You guys think they will include them?

At least 1 i bet.

hey guys, long time lurker, very infrequent poster here.

 

i did some snooping around on the ASCAP database, and i thought i'd compile a list of songs, broken down and organized for you guys.

 

a lot of this may be fairly repetitive from what we've already seen, but i'm just trying to be helpful!!

 

CONFIRMED (MENTIONED/PERFORMED/RELEASED BY THE BAND DURING THE PRE-LP5 ERA) SONGS THAT HAVE BEEN REGISTERED

 

Charlie Brown

Hurts Like Heaven

Major Minus

Moving to Mars

Mylo Xyloto (Assuming it is in fact MX, which is why it's on this list)

Princess of China

---------

now, i know this is clearly missing a few songs (most notably ETIAW), but here's why.

 

ALL of those songs have the writers listed as:

BERRYMAN GUY RUPERT

BUCKLAND JONATHAN MARK

CHAMPION WILLIAM

ENO BRIAN PETER GEORGE

MARTIN CHRISTOPHER ANTHONY JOH

 

this explains the reason behind ETIAW with its sample and UWTB not showing up on the main list, so we'll ignore those for now.

 

let's look at other songs with those five writers? (i know some of these have been mentioned on the forum, others havent to my best knowledge).

 

--------------

OTHER SONGS REGISTERED WITH THE SAME FIVE WRITERS (MARTIN, BERRYMAN, BUCKLAND, CHAMPION, ENO)

 

A Hopeful Transmission

Great Expectations

Paradise

Tomorrow

U.F.O.

 

--------------

finally, in my search i noticed that there're a couple of songs registered under the pair of Chris Martin and Jon Hopkins, which is listed as:

 

HOPKINS JONATHAN JULIAN

MARTIN CHRISTOPHER ANTHONY JOH

 

 

i don't know if these have been recorded by jon hopkins or if its old news, but i figured i'd go ahead and list them here anyway, cause i recognized the name of the second song.

 

SONGS WRITTEN BY CHRIS MARTIN AND JON HOPKINS

 

Christmas in New York

Sex and Violence

 

 

so there's my contribution to the hunt for LP5, hope it helps, and i'm sorry if i've wasted your time!

^Wow, great find! :o

Looks interesting.

And you dont waste anyones Time here.

Dont worry.

I don't think we'll get THAT many, but I do like the whole song/song thing. I don't think that Up With The Birds or Golden Arrow will be songs though, only mentioned in songs.

So the ones with the five writers...well that's 11 songs. Plus Up With the Birds...so if you take out 1 or 2 of those, that could be the album :O

Wait UFO and Great Expectations have been registered? That surely means they'll be album tracks or b-sides right?

Here's something to do while we wait for the track listing announcement.

:D I think all Coldplayers just took a 2 minute break from the forum.

As it should be :)

All shortforms like UFO, REX etc will be Songs.

And the Stuff with the paintings like Golden Arrow will be Songs as well.

The Lyrics are easy to separate.

"UFO" and "A Hopeful Transmission" sound spacey to me :wink3:

My new guess

 

1. MX/Hurts Like Heaven

2. UFO

3. Princess Of China

4. Major Minus

5. Car Kids

6. Us Against The World

7. Charlie Brown

8. Tomorrow

9. Up With The Birds

10. Arabesque

11. Great Expectations
