Jedi Leo Posted September 9, 2011 Author Share Posted September 9, 2011 Exactly. Figures Coldplay would be the one to break that glass ceiling of gayness. :P Some terrible track names for sure, and ETIAW into Major Minus has to be the album transition from hell (at least I can skip it in one chunk), but at least the latter half of the album is stacked with thus-far unheard material. Funny...I thought the original post referred to gay as an adjective, meaning foolish or stupid. But when you started mentioning homosexuals you seriously lost me there.

Jedi Leo Posted September 9, 2011 Author Share Posted September 9, 2011 No, I'm with you. I mean I've heard the song, most of the people on here have heard the song. What else do you want? Would putting the song on the album make it sound better? Does it make it sound worse? I agree. I always thought of MTM as a b-side, a beautiful b-side but a b-side nonetheless :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danmets21 Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Before anyone else posts this I might as well do it :P The symbols each represent each song (obviously) MX= Mylo Xyloto (that's a given) Swirl= HLH (no idea) Butterfly= Paradise. It's on the flippin single art work Flower= Charlie Brown. Bright red rose CK= Us against the world. I'm thinking Car Kids became UATW and it's just a reference M.M.I.X= Wand type thing. I think we'll understand why it's represented by that when we hear the song Tear= Every TEARDROP is a waterfall, again a given. Eye= Major Minus. One eye on the road and one on you. Spaceship= U.F.O, given Crown= Princess of China, given Flame= Up in Flames, given Antenna= A hopeful transmission, a antenna transmits information, audio, etc. Broken Heart= Don't let it break your heart, given Bird= Up with the birds, given. Let's try to find out the wand type thing and the swirl ^.^ I think the swirl represents confusion, maybe confusion of what one's role is. "I struggle with the feeling that my life isn't mine."

Blue Nails Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 I am so happy with this, we could not have wished for more. I'm also happy that ETIAW is not the final track, because that would always be a small anticlimax for me, even though I like it. The only thing is, I'm afraid it will be too long.... Ah whatever. Edit: oh and I love the symbols Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

periahdark Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 The only thing is, I'm afraid it will be too long.... Ah whatever. Edit: oh and I love the symbols For me, a Coldplay album will never be long enough! Hahaha. I love that X&Y was pretty lengthy and I wish they would do more >10 track albums.

Jedi Leo Posted September 9, 2011 Author Share Posted September 9, 2011 I think the symbols are adorable! I hope they are going to be in the booklet as well. Do you think we will have lyrics included in the booklet? At least in the limited edition? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DukeNewcomb Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Why is CK under Us Against The World? Shouldn't it be swapped around with the flower? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far too EXCITED! :) I think ETIAW stands in contrast with MM. Maybe it will function as an album divider, where the positive part is the first one and it culminates with ETIAW and then the "dark" part begins, starting with MM, going through Up In Flames, etc. Hopefully it will all have a happy ending though with Up With The Birds. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jc90 Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Then that goes for etiaw, hlh, Charlie brown, us against the world, poc...:dizzy2: HLH, CB, UATW and POC weren't on the ETIAW EP. I am saying since MTM was on ETIAW I don't mind either way of it's role in the main LP. If those songs didn't make MX, then i'd see more of a reason to bitch about it. Plus, wasn't everyone annoyed with paying for ETIAW multiple times? Why then are some people complaining that they aren't gonna pay for MTM twice?

strawberryswinger Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 ETIAW in the damn middle? well that was unexpected! here's me hoping there are some instrumentals, cause otherwise it'd be far too long and cause i can't picture songtitles like UFO or MMIX having even decent lyrics.. tracklist! songs! lots of songs! all of them! yea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Leo Posted September 9, 2011 Author Share Posted September 9, 2011 With the japanesse edition, maybe we gonna have 2 bonus tracks !!! Yeah it´s so crazy right? That would be 16 songs!

But I think people might be upset MTM is not on the album, because it loses its status as an A-song and apparently that´s how a lot of people see the song, while the band clearly disagrees as they left it only as a b-side.
