October 17, 201114 yr I've just listened to the iTunes streaming versions and they sound a bit more clear but not much difference really... Btw, am I the only one who thinks some tracks don't come to full glory because they're too short? (for example, DLIBYH and UFO, even PoC would be much better if the chorus was sung twice!).
October 17, 201114 yr IT IS THE FINAL VERSION. Listening to the radio HLH one and POC stream.. they are the same! Yeah I agree sorry for the guys that are disappointed
October 17, 201114 yr Damn... well, now I have to like the f*cking song! :laugh3: :sneaky: :laugh3: Yeah I usually end up liking some songs I dislike after I listen to it a few more times :D
October 17, 201114 yr Maybe the leaked version and the final versions are different? Well I am tired of everyone saying the same. Why don't we just wait until the official release so we can put this issue to rest I still stand by my opinion. EMI is worried the leak will cut into their sales which is why they said it isn't the final version.
October 17, 201114 yr Author I love UFO, but I'm saying it doesn't fade out, it just ends. It cuts off the guitar. Oh you're right! I just noticed that!
October 17, 201114 yr Author Is it just me, or does EMI in Central America always say stupid shit? THIS! Forget about the other stuff guys, it seems like we have the final version. I was hoping a better version of HLH, but the other new stuff is great. So... Enjoy!
October 17, 201114 yr I don't think so? Maybe we have different leaked versions :smug: I can barely hear Chris :cry:
October 17, 201114 yr I bet they're just saying that cause they think that we won't buy the album come next week... so naive :p
October 18, 201114 yr this all reminds me a little of radioheads king of limbs and the whole controversy that arose about whether the 8 songs on that album were real, or were part 1 of a double album, or all this stuff. granted, the case that they were releasing more material and that indeed this was part 1 of part 2 was way more convincing in the radiohead case, but still the reaction from each fan base is very similar. people convinced this couldnt be it, the final product. to me, the promo cd theory falls flat on multiple levels. i cant think of many albums in the last 4 or 5 years that have had unfinished versions of them leaked only to find on the albums actual release date that the leak was unfinished and the final product was on shelves. i can think of very few examples of that. Think of the major albums released in the last few years, Radiohead's last two records, Eminem's albums, Kanye's, i never saw an unifinished album released prior to the real leak. never. If the band is as perfectionist as people are making it sound like, why would they release an album, unfinished, mistakes and all, and give that to people like the BBC and whoever else. what band, further what artist in any medium would give unfinished product to the press to review? would Martin Scorsese allow the press and others to see an unfinished and unedited film? would Damien Hurst allow the press to see a painting that was unfinished? Its a pretty insane idea, and one few artists in any medium, film, music, painting, would go along with. What artist would want an unfinished product judged by anyone? given that the BBC version and the leak we have differ so little, beyond volume and overall quality of sound, you'd have to believe that Coldplay let the BBC play an unfinished, not ready, mistake filled album to millions of listeners worldwide, and or, that the BBC was duped, and that Coldplay decided that they wanted to unveil a few songs, unfinished, mistake filled, not ready songs to an audience of millions and failed to tell the BBC that the album was unfinished and not final. Seems to me the facts of the issue are leaning heavily towards this is the final product, but that we will have a higher quality rip by tomorrow, but that the mistakes and production that people are complaining about will be intact.
October 18, 201114 yr I'm pretty sure it's the final version now. Plus, I have the .FLAC leak which is supposedly the best quality out there. It's uncompressed and it sounds amazing to me. The only problem I hear is Chris' vocals on DLIBYH. They are way too low. :cry:

The only problem I hear is Chris' vocals on DLIBYH. They are way too low. :cry: additionally, the fact that its been well known that chris doesnt allow gwenyth to hear the albums until close to the release date. gwenyth herself tweeted a photo of the album just the other day meaning she finally got a copy and listened to it. the fact that she got a copy, and then it leaked i think are not a coincidence. im not suggesting she leaked it, but i am suggesting that the band sent out copies, final copies of the album to people, their family, the press, just the other day and that the leak we have is a result of someone in that group leaking it. additionally, i cant remember if it was chris and the guys, or if it was solely gwenyth, but one or the other was saying how they only hear the finished product, they dont hear it in any other form. chris and the other guys dont like to let others hear unfinished songs, they only want them to hear the final finished product. That in and of itself sort of rules out the idea they'd even make a promo or an unifnished album. if they wont let people hear unfinished product, and that fact has made it into press reports, meaning its well known, why would they release or record an album, unfinished and full of mistakes. ive maintained for awhile, i think the mistakes are intentional. what other explanation is there? Why would someone like chris who has publicly said he's shy and worried about how the product sounds, and only lets people hear a finished song, why would he and the band agree to play the unfinished songs on the BBC? Thats sort of why i really didnt get the argument earlier today.
October 18, 201114 yr hahaha, the thread title typo makes me wanna say ,"Im Ron Burgandy?" hahahaha "Go fuck yourself, San Diego."
October 18, 201114 yr "Go fuck yourself, San Diego." "Good evening, im ron burgandy, and this is tits mcgee" :lol::lol::lol:
October 18, 201114 yr Even if this isn't the real deal, the real one is probably similar and we will hear it in a week (some will hear it in less time) so it doesn't matter. What does matter is that we have new Coldplay songs :heart:

What does matter is that we have new Coldplay songs :heart: I think it's mainly volume level, and the fact that none of these are 328, or higher.
October 18, 201114 yr i iTunes version of HLH sounds more clear and crisp...I like it can you pm me it?
October 18, 201114 yr "Good evening, im ron burgandy, and this is tits mcgee" :lol::lol::lol: :lol: "Where'd you get your clothes at? The toilet store?".
