Did anyone notice how the stuff in the screen during PoC was the artwork?

I like it but currently I fail to see how this song fits into a "concept" like album. One moment your singing about grafitti on a bridge and the next your talking about fairy tale stories! Excellent song though!

Princess Of China fits in with that same theme expressed in Major Minus, being careful and trying to escape the all-seeing eye or what have you.

 

There's the self-expressionist theme with graffiti, said theme of surveillance, and then that alien/spacial theme. This album is actually going to be pretty interesting.

yep. The Oracle is Debs Wild, their public relations manager.

 

Is that true?

Better not be left off MX!!!! I love this song so much I made it my username! LOL :)

oh yes!! :) so excited :)

Well, iam pretty sure it will be on Mylo Xyloto. The oracle is excited about it,we are, Phil mentioned it on his recent tweet. Its my favourite because its totally different to all songs theyve written so far and i cant get it out of my mind !

 

Personally, iam sure its also one of their three fav songs in this era and they just wanted to find out how it works live at Rock im Park. This song will be a great anthem on their upcoming tour,like CB...for sure !

Some news about the mysterious on ? On or scrapped ?! :)

I agree that this is a very nice song, and there's been a lot of talk about it too across the internet. It and Hurts Like Heaven seem to be getting the most attention from what I can see. This is just a thought, but, could Spanish Rain be a B-side to Princess of China?

 

By the way, here's a better sounding version (and a cool made-up cover)

So tell that princess, she'll never be lonely again.

Yeah,it makes sense because of the lyrics(in a way) :) Otherwise it would mean that PoC is going to be released as a Single FROM Mylo Xyloto...and that would be a greeeeat fact !!!:laugh3::laugh3::laugh3:
