what i don't understand is why has coldplay not advertised about the single properly. like there is no pre order and we havent seen the offial artwork yet, and its coming out on monday. something is fishy

It's not fishy. They did the same with Christmas Lights, went to Radio 1 played it, then released it immediately afterwards.

 

They're not the type to promote singles within an inch of their lives to secure a number 1 the way other artists do. Like Chris said himself in Billboard "we're not a singles band"

7.50am? damn that's a bit early for me. might just sleep through it and then listen to it on the official site and after this site has probably crashed. Then again it's not everyday Coldplay release a song lol.

7:50 AM UK time means 8:50 here in Holland. Too bad I'm at school at 8:50. I either hope it leaks before that time or that my German teacher catches the flu or something.

I'll be on my way to work so won't be listening until I get in...which might be for the best. Can guage the reaction so I know what to expect going in.

14:50... at that time, I will be in class. :(

Perfect timing for me,I usually get out of the bed half an hour earlier and I'd hate to wait for noon or evening in order to hear a new song.

That's the only thing I really dislike about Coldplay. Their damn butterflies. WTF?

 

 

 

I love the butterflies. :wacky:

This thread belongs in the Paradise section :)

This song is gonna do well in charts whether they want it or not LOL

Well, this represents music's last stand for survival in my eyes, Coldplay and One Direction are releasing a single in the same week. If One Direction charts higher than Paradise, i will lose all faith in the music industry and people who buy music. I'm not hopeful that Coldplay will be #1 but they will definitely have released the highest quality song

Don't worry ,doesn't matter if paradise does bad in charts, the album still will be huge!

Is there any way to listen to Radio1 live in a BlackBerry if you're not in the UK??

One Direction will get to number 1, its no doubt, im an expert on the UK charts and they will get around 100-150k first week sales, it doesn't indicate much, no one really talk's about or cares about number 1 anymore like in 2005 for example with the Crazy Frog v Speed of Sound thing. They are products of a reality TV show and they will be forgotten about eventually.

 

If Coldplay cared about the chart peak for Paradise, there would of been no on air/on sale release. Instead they will peak a places lower than usually but have better all round sales, how radio recieves it will show more. ETIAW peaked at number 1 for one week, it has been a commercial success in the same way Talk and Violet Hill were another two top 10 singles.

 

Paradise is released on Monday morning, which gives it less time for sales rather than at Saturday/Sunday midnight but will be really hoping for a top 5 placing, but we should expect top 10 at least which is great as Coldplay's top 10 hit list is growing and growing :D

i dunno if it's available on the blackberry but get the app TuneIn Radio app. If you've an iTouch get it for that and you can listen on that :)

No because it will be 1:50am here. But if had to I would, big expectations for this thing (has to beat the ETIAW first hearing letdown)

Its 8.50 in Europe, so I'll give my best to be awake.

I´ll be up, bright and ready with a cup of tea and my breakfast, my best pair of earphones and you guys/girls to keep me company on the thread :) I can´t wait!!
