lets discuss the possible length of the album

 

1. mylo xyloto 3:30 (still up for debate though if that's accurate)

2. hurts like heaven 4:00 (based on live performance)

3. paradise 4:30 roughly (confirmed)

4. charlie brown 4:30 (based on live performance and includes piano outro)

5. us against the world 3:30 (based on live performance)

6. mmix (unknown)

7. every teardrop is a waterfall 4:00 roughly (confirmed)

8. major minus 3:30 roughly (confirmed)

9. ufo (unknown)

10. princess of china 3:30 (again based off live performance)

11. up in flames (might find out friday at acl)

12. a hopeful transmission (i expect an instrumental but unknown)

13. dont let it break your heart (might find out at acl)

14. up with the birds (unknown)

 

so that leaves us with this:

6 songs that are still up in the air

8 songs that add up to about 30 minutes

if each of the other songs is about 3 minutes average thats 48 minutes

 

it will be interesting to see how my calculations add up
