ColdplayFanatic16 Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Maybe the reason why Rihanna's coice is so dominant is because the song was originally written for her but Chris LOVED singing the first verse.. And they all agreed it should be on the album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
admnistramation Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 This is a dumb question but i am dumb.......What's the point of releasing a song off the album as a 'single'?? Other than to just release b-sides and to make it able for non-iTunes/computer people to buy just one song? Are there any other reasons? For radio play, mostly.

kiwiboy527 Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 I'm getting tired of seeing how much they seem to be trying to sell more and more and stopped worrying about the music. I like PoC, I enjoy it but also think that they just picked it because it will probably give them another #1 single ''another #1'' they've only ever had 1 number one, and that was a pop song. Nothing wrong with pop if it's done well and it's not cheesy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwiboy527 Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 I'm sorry but, isn't that the point of releasing singles ? your best songs from the album that you hope will do well in the charts ?????? = more people buying album?

kiwiboy527 Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 ------------------------------------------------- Thank you so much! I'm sorry but these people who are complaining about Princess of China being a single make no sense. blah blah blah Oh Coldplay's just gotten so poppy and mainstream, blah blah blah, they're just doing this because it will do well on the charts! No Way! Shut up.... A band trying to be successful and do well in the charts?! Shame on Coldplay... man... they really sold out... (no really, they sell out pretty much everywhere they play, so yea, I guess you could say they've "sold out") Princess of China will be a great single and will get Coldplay some exposure in a different market where people aren't used to hearing them. And for those of you who hate on this album for being poppy and mainstream... I'm pretty sure Coldplay, being one of the biggest bands in the world, is already pretty mainstream... hate to ruin it for you. They're not the hidden band you discovered that you're telling all your friends about it. Good for Coldplay doing well on the charts, and good for Princess of China being the next single. Bring it on! I think i love you :') THIS ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freezingcoldplay Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Princess of China is awesome. I've been listening to it non-stop since finding it on youtube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

admnistramation Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 Talk sucks live but it's definitely one of the best on X&Y. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldplaymom Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 but it'd show everyone that the album isn't that bad! You mean it'll show the minority that the album isn't that bad. Most critics already like the album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonnyIanni Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 This was expected. To assure fans, I'm positive that Charlie Brown will be a single at some point. It is a standout on the album + a fan favorite live. If released, it should do well on the charts. I'm still wondering why they chose Paradise as the second single. There is nothing special to that song... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
getithom Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 You really think it was that bad? (unless you're being sarcastic here too) I'm sure that was a serious comment. I love Talk. It's one of my favorite songs from Coldplay, and, I don't hear it bad live like others do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chechoouu Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 I like the song, but not as the new single :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damiian Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 Any idea if it's going to contain any b-sides? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnymax865 Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 I think it's ok to have another single, maybe it's gonna be a kind of double single Paradise/PoC for autumn 2011... with viva la vida promotion, lost! and lovers in japan were also released very closed! maybe we will have a video for PoC at the end of november my idea for the next singles is: winter 2012 - Charlie Brown (surprised it's not yet released...) spring 2012 - Us Against The World OR Up In Flames (as slow single) summer 2012 - Don't Let It Break Your Heart OR Hurts Like Heaven (I really hope in a 6th single, unless they don't release an EP...)

ihaveabono Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 is it really confirmed to be the next single?? :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[email protected]. Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Billboard wrote: "That song will be released as a single on Oct. 25." So we will know whether it s true or not tomorrow I guess. Strange that Coldplay didn't announce it yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheese Nip 2 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 B Side would be awesome! But since this isn't varified by the band and it's supposed to come out tommarrow I don't know if I trust it. Besides, if the album is already out, what would be the point of releaseing it as a download only single when it is already #15 on itunes. Well, I don't know anything about that sales stuff, but hopefully we get a physical release!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is nothing special to that song... They mentioned in an interview (can't remember where) that Paradise was the song that every other song was built around... it's weird, but they explain it best. It would be nice if someone knew which interview I'm talking about, it's fairly recent... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shred Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 If this is a single, I would really like them to include a b-side of the song without Rhianna. Even though she didn't destroy the song for me (surprise surprise), I really want PoC with just all Chris in it. I want to see the difference.

Mackplay Posted October 25, 2011 Author Share Posted October 25, 2011 I agree that it's kind of weird that Coldplay.com didn't make an announcement (and we know how much they love sending those newsletters) However. POC is now #13 on the US Itunes and still climbing. It's a definite 3rd single. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shred Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I think it would be dumb of them NOT to release this as a single. You have one of the biggest pop singers on it. It's just crying out to be released as a single. :lol: It will definitely help with record sales in my opinion and when awards season come around.

admnistramation Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 It might be announced on the 25th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuneZore Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 come to think of it, we only got 2 new song b-sides from the vlv-era single : a spell a rebel yell and death will never conquer. lack of b-sides usually lead to an EP. i hope sooo...:wink3: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bedtime83 Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 Well its #20 on the iTunes chart already so it doesnt really matter when the official release date as a single is..its out there now & will no doubt stay in the charts for the next few months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
