August 12, 201114 yr Down at the bottom in black: 'A speeding ghost And a shadow Luminous the road to the Sea we swam from the shallows/shadows In battle/white lightnings glow [. . .] We're gonna [. . .] only Shows(?) to the/taste' "the Two of u, we drove, a speeding Ghost and a shadow, Luminous the Road to the Sea, we swam from the shallows to battle .... glow where, we´re gonna run (Cod?) only Now take you" Pretty hard to decipher.
August 12, 201114 yr ^ I dont think this is a coincidence. What is it with them and 42 It's a referance to the song 42 in the album Viva La Vida or Death and all his Friends
August 12, 201114 yr I think it says "every siren is a sympony" From the Every Teardrop is A Waterfall lyrics
August 12, 201114 yr There's quite a bit to find in amongst all that graffiti, I love it. The colours are wonderful. And I love the use of the grey on the alternate side of the album cover -- certainly fits in with the whole concrete canvas/graffiti thing. Pretty sure this is going to be incredibly brilliant.
August 12, 201114 yr "the Two of u, we drove, a speeding Ghost and a shadow, Luminous the Road to the Sea, we swam from the shallows to battle .... glow where, we´re gonna run (Cod?) only Now take you" Pretty hard to decipher. the two of us we drove a speeding ghost and a shadow luminous the road to the sea we swam from the shallows to bottle lightnings glow where we're gonna run god only knows take you(r??)... sounds like a really cool song! maybe it's the title track? who knows haha
August 12, 201114 yr Far lower righthand corner: Under 1 Roof With a roof drawn above it :D Oh and their message on the website says the same thing: Look at the thingy at the right.. Under 1 Roof. Am I late to the party with this info? Wow, I hadn't noticed the U1R! :O I need to pay more attention >:( In black spray paint, I reckon it might say "Leaf" towards the bottom right... Maybe "Leaf over"?

August 12, 201114 yr My world is shining because Major Minus is on the album. The End Hopefully with a new mix of the song.
August 12, 201114 yr @rafaelchampion I think we understand that you like Major Minus by now. No need to constantly keep saying how much you love it in every thread. It's verging on being annoying now.
August 12, 201114 yr Hopefully with a new mix of the song. I like it the way it is I think we understand that you like Major Minus now. No need to constantly keep saying how much you love it. It's verging on being annoying now. Thank you. I LOVE MAJOR MINUS :saw:
August 12, 201114 yr as for how you say it... I know its My-lo Zy-letoe so that would sound like what, my low zye lee toe or my low zye lie toe
August 12, 201114 yr You forget Paradise, it's the next single ;) Oops. I just wrote down the titles I found from the album cover. I didn't see Paradise on that. :rolleyes:
August 12, 201114 yr Finally, the official announcement! Damn still quite a wait.. But the guessing is over, kind of. But it's great hearing a new song title straight away, can't wait to hear Paradise!
August 12, 201114 yr as for how you say it... I know its My-lo Zy-letoe so that would sound like what, my low zye lee toe or my low zye lie toe My Low - Zy la toe
August 12, 201114 yr Mylo - the UK street artist Xyloto - Mylo's version of a camera or a variation on the word xylo (meaning wood, and perhaps the precursor to modern day street art which initally used wood, but now can be found in all forms, and popularly as graffiti paint (spray can soul, so to speak from hurts like heaven).
August 12, 201114 yr Yeah - coldplay's obsession or reference to the number 42 is taken from the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy by Douglas Adams. A classic sci fi novel. one of the themes or subplots of the story is the Ultimate Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, The Universe, and Everything. The answer was 42 which led to so many theories by fans of the book, but in the end Douglas Adams said it was just an arbitrary answer - my guess is that his point was that it's something different for everybody, our purpose, our goals, and our experiences which shape our journey in this so called life. Thus coldplay's fascination with the 42 (Those that are dead, are not dead, there just living in my head - perhaps the question of whether people are ever really dead, or always alive in one's mind and memories. Hence it's inclusion in Viva La Vida and Death and All of his friends. It's a brilliant track, and i hope they develop an arc to that song, perhaps a trilogy of sorts. Wow :shocked2:, I like that one Originally Posted by piyush.exquisite;4921133 Hurts like Heaven Charlie Brown MX XyloBrytes Up with the birds Charlie Brown Car Kids ETIAW Major Minus Us Against the world UFO/Luminous? Charlie Brown's written twice.. and as someone said before, Up in Flames and Paradise are missing :) I can't wait!! I'm certainly very excited about all this, and also a bit scared. I fear that the boys can't do any better than this album, since they say they've given all what they had.Please do not hit me :(
August 12, 201114 yr I think it's so insanely exciting that we got all this news and EMI came through for us in delivering what they said. NOW. All we need is the tracklist! (; :P Also. I noticed of lack of anything relating to UFO's. Kind of disappointed about that. But it's still the coolest album artwork I've ever seen. I can't help but be bogged down and I'm surprised no one else mentioned this. Chris seems, just, "missing the mark" in the interview. Maybe it's all the intense pressure and frustration getting everything done but he said it could be their last album? But he always says that doesn't he? I remember after X&Y they were supposed to talk off like 2 or 3 years completely away from making music. And I think there's definitely a lot more directions out there they could go. I feel really bad though. I can't imagine how exhausted the guys are and it's all for us. But I don't see that they should break up- they're four best friends. They definitely deserve time off with their families and to do with they please though. I think if they're going to do a tour it should be a short one in Europe (as much as I would like to see them) and take a year or two to relax and have some family time. I never get tired of new Coldplay music but, if there's any band out there who deserves it, it's them. I really hope Chris feels better and gets his spirits up again. :\ He partially doesn't seem himself. And I know this probably isn't the place for it and really random but. I wish there would be an 'introspective' mood. I feel that one pretty much more than any other.
