laxwatcher Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 The notes from Chris's Notebook in the Pop-Up has a lot of info. This is what I got: 1. A Hopeful Transmission was a full song with vocals and lyrics. Update: On one of the pages (I forget) it includes an entry back in 2010 with "A Hopeful Transmission" Chris Martin vocal takes. Just more proof it was a full song. 2. Car Kids and Love in a Lethal Dose were new songs on the list for Glastonbury but weren't played. 3. Car Kids was one of the last tracks cut from the album list, so it must be a great song. It also says Car Kids is a heavy classical/landscape type song with strings, synths, claps, and tambourines. Update: It apparently starts with Will "clumsy" drum playing and claps, then adds tambourine, real strings, synths to back 15 intro. Chris wanted it to be organic and scenery music. (Sounds good :D) 4. There's a list of songs made on 16th June 2010 which includes G.E. (Great Expectations), C.B. (Charlie Brown), P. (Paradise), W. (Wilderness?), HLH (Hurts Like Heaven), MMIX, MMinus (Major Minus), MTM (Moving to Mars), CK (Car Kids), AHT (A Hopeful Transmission), and ETIAW (Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall). The list made later on includes unreleased songs CK (Car Kids), and Rescue Street 5. There are other words, but we don't know if they are songs yet, like Aiko, 1000K, Rex. 6. Moving to Mars was supposed to sound like a mix of "Bullet the Blue Sky", "Drive", and "42". 7. On the Up in Flames artwork page, there is notes that includes a preliminary track-listing for the album as MX, HLH, POC, CB, P, UATW, MM, UWTB, UFO, ETIAW. It also includes some songs being considered: Tomorrow? MTM? AHT? Possible New Songs (isn't that what all of us want :P): Car Kids Love in a Lethal Dose Tomorrow Wilderness (?) Rescue Street Mylo Xyloto/Great Expectations (full song or new song) A Hopeful Transmission (full song) Some of the lyrics: A Hopeful Transmission: Guide me stranger Shepherd me through danger Though I might No I won't When I'm Guide me, guide me to If I fall in hot water / peril Or jump in Mylo Xyloto/ Great Expectations: In my head, in my brain In my head, all these (things?) I just can't explain Left to right Tip to toes We're in flight And we're going Where nobody knows The streets are paved with gold Under the ocean By a whale swallowed whole Swallowed me / us whole Pure poetry in motion We're both down here Losing control Sellotaping my soul It's alright Greet the light Greet the sky So we ride So we rise So let fly, your blutterfly. The cover of MX: The two of us we drove A speeding ghost, and a shadow The road to the sea We swam from the shallows To battle lightning's glow Where we're gonna run, God only knows Take you . . . Silencia/A Man Who Swears/Major Minus: There's a man who swears he's God But I'm pretty sure he's not There's a man who walks around Like he owns the f*ckin lot Takes his time A playing with your mind Crocodile clock You must It's just work It's not easy / hard All the while Tell you that you're climbing Pulling the ladder apart Saw the boss hogg If anyone finds anything else, they should share it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juanif94 Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 It sounds like there must be an EP with all these songs that were left out! I'm not expecting it in a near future though maybe by the end of 2012, who knows.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're really toying with us over the whole Car Kids thing! :nod: I understand that some people get annoyed with this whole Car Kids thing, but the fact is that it's EVERYWHERE!

myloxyloto:) Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Thanks, makes my hopes for Car Kids to be better :) Yeah, I've seen mentioned ALOT. I found at least 5 references to Car Kids just in the CD's booklet thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toddbluezoo Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 The amount of references to Car Kids is infuriating! Why can't they just release it??! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carefulwhereyoustand Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I've got it too. If you look at the bottom of the page with pics of Chris' notebook theres a page that's mostly covered with another page that's yellow (Possible cover up of something very important???) you can still see the top of the page which says Up On a Wire. It's capitilized like a song so it must be another b-side. Also The Man Who Swears was considered for the album. There's only a few other things I could make out because Chris' handwriting is TERRIBLE!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrk Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I also found a drawing of a radio tower similar to the AHT one with "no power to the tower" written next to it and also Aiko (which was on the 2009 interview list) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marchez94 Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 They were writing such a great album before Parapara... I can say that the words on the cover end with "Where we're gonna run, God only knows Now take your arrow and shoot me". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laga Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 The amount of references to Car Kids is infuriating! Why can't they just release it??! :laugh3: it's true!
