MYLO XYLOTO = ZYLO MYLOTO (see this picture) = Under 1 Roof in an unknown language

Featured Replies

Hehe, maybe Mylo Xyloto isn't necessarily a foreign language, but one the guys made up themselves :laugh4:

 

They've been in the studio for so long I wouldn't put it past them!

 

 

 

It probably translates to "Jonny, stop hogging the blanket!"

 

:blank:

 

 

Grammar alert! Grammar alert! Code homophone!

 

Break = to damage, destroy, ruin. Brake = to slow down; lower speed.

 

DON'T EVER READ ANY OF MY POSTS OR YOUR GRAMMAR AGENCY WILL BE A CHAOS!

1. Welcome :smug:

2. What? :confused:

3. No. :)

 

Lotusflower.

It's spelt different and i dont see any relations.

 

Lotus translates to Loto in spanish

So I don't really understand what this is implying? And how do we know it means "under one roof"?

 

Sorry, I'm stupid. Haha :freak:

Its a harmony of farm animals! BAAAAAAAA!

:laugh3:

You're not stupid, you probably just can't see it because it's so small. If you can enlarge the explanation of how to pronounce the title, you'll see what looks like a tent (or more appropriately, a roof), and under that is "under" followed by a big "1" and then "roof".

 

I agree with the others - if history repeats itself and if Coldplay is still the same group of guys, then "under 1 roof" is most likely a charitable organization they're trying to help out.

^"Under 1 Roof" also appears on Chris's piano--I'd wager that it has to do with the music as opposed to a charitable organization. Because Chris put it on the album announcement, it definitely seems like it has more significance than it just being another bit of lyrics or a song title, but at the same time...I don't know if I think it has anything to do with the name Mylo Xyloto. I think we're really going to have to wait and see on that one...I don't know if it's something that can be found out by research.

What if...WHAT IF...Mylo Xyloto isn't a code and it's just random words they made up? Just stop making so many speculations as if it's a code to an unreleased EP or something like that, can't you just wait until the album's release to start talking about it?

I agree that I'm a bit tired of all the endless speculation, but there's little else to do in the meantime on places like this until more music comes out. I really do think it's a "wait for them to tell us" situation.

 

(And Debs said it wasn't made-up)

Ha, this sentence is the perfect standard reply to about 90% of the currently active threads. :lol:

They're not made up words apparently (see: Oracle)

But I agree that we should just wait and see and stop the speculation.

Ha, this sentence is the perfect standard reply to about 90% of the currently active threads. :lol:

 

This :laugh3:

My guess is that each letter means something, and that MYLO is a group of "things" or persons, and XYLOTO is the same.

 

That would make sense, at least.. :p

Ha, this sentence is the perfect standard reply to about 90% of the currently active threads. :lol:

 

Very true :P. I admit that I'm pretty tired of all the speculation about things we can't possibly know about or answer ourselves (tracklisting, meaning of MX, etc), but...what else is there to do in the meantime, I guess? I just prefer to hijack threads and discuss their business/promo decisions because I feel more comfortable with those things vs. creative process things :lol:.

maybe my and zy in my-lo zy-loto are some kind of pronouns or anything that can be replaced by each other,,,

(shit, it won't be that 4 sure!)

May..

My = The boy character of the album.

Xy = The girl character of the album.

Loto = Love? Luck? I don't know

 

The only thing I get when I see the cover is:

 

MYL

OX&YL

OTO

:crown:

They have made their own studio language and Mylo Xyloto means Jonny Boy. :nod: Now you have reasons why it's Under 1 Roof (their studio) and why Chris said Mylo Xyloto at the beggining of Jonny's Fix You solo at one festival. :nod: And Fix You cover art says XY so that's why XY is in the middle of MYL OXYL OTO. :nod: And Up In Flames is the leading song and is described as the new Fix You.

 

There you have it. It's all about FIX YOU! :lol:
