I don't think there's another one on Amazon.fr, so I think we're all buying the same :)

Does anyone know if the copies from the US and Euorope are absolutely identical?

I think so but someone from the US can compare:

Yep. That's exactly what my copy looks like.

Coldplay – Up With The Birds

 

What’s this?

Coldplay are, of course, a band who need no introduction. “Up With The Birds” is their offering for Record Store Day 2012, and is the fifth track released from their platinum selling album, Mylo Xyloto.

 

And what’s it sound like?

The expansive keys, sumptuous strings and backing melodies of ‘Up With The Birds’ mark a much needed change from Coldplay’s recent output; ’Paradise’ represented their pitch for pop ubiquity, and ‘Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall’ symbolised their U2 moment. This track brings the band back to their roots, to the heights of ‘Yellow’ and ‘Clocks, reminding us why they have become Britain’s biggest band.

 

As Mylo Xyloto’s closing track, it is an excellent, serene ending to the album. However, it doesn’t work as well as a standalone single. Without the rest of the album for company, it falls flat.

 

What’s the verdict?

Referencing Leonard Cohen’s ‘Anthem’, and recalling a happier version of Radiohead’s ‘Pyramid Song’, ‘Up With The Birds’ is one of Coldplay’s better recent efforts, but not their crowning glory.

I only had time to go to one record store yesterday since I had to be at work at 11:00 and I didn't get the Flaming Lips and Heady Fwends since my store didn't get any in. I was calling around to record stores in the area today and every single one of them is sold out. And several of the people I talked to said that it was the most popular item they sold yesterday and that they've had several people asking about it today like myself. I'm considering looking at eBay, but I don't want to get ripped off.

^ What about this one?

The only weird thing is that the seller has so many of them.

That is weird! I've already bid on another one that was in the U.S., but thanks!

well I can't get it from amazon so it'd be awesome if someone here gets an extra copy, I can pay for it + shipping price using paypal :)

You're second on the list, fingers crossed! :kiss:

I ordered two from Amazon. If they actually turn up, you can have the other one!

If Amazon sends out any copies, I think a lot of people here willl have spares, so don't give up just yet

cool! thanks guys you all are very nice :)

Ordered on Amazon.fr

 

Delivery date: May, 7th - May 13th

Got mine in Portland and I was thrilled. :)

Oh god!

One of my mum's bosses knows I like Coldplay and he knew I wanted to buy the RSD release. This morning he told my mum how nice it was that I managed to buy it. My mum was totally flabbergasted, how did he find out about that? Well, he also went to the record store on Saturday (there's only one record store in my town) and they told him that there was a very dedicated girl that started queuing way before the store opened and that she bought the Coldplay single. He immediately knew they were talking about me. Aaargh!

Haha that is one freaky boss :p
