Can it be Viva La Vida? All the album are kinda mirrored, and the main song in which the word "mirror" is cited is VLV

Interesting idea but no. Look at clue 1 again. It's a pattern that all albums have !

Well when you say that, I think it has to do with your first and last reference. Maybe something all share about what

Order those songs are in...

Does clue #1 include EPs, and lives?

Fellow hunters: Here are the theories about clue 1 that I have ruled out so far. Maybe we can solve this thing together by saving each other time going down the wrong rabbit holes: It is NOT: the number or position of the instrumentals, the number of songs that begin with the letter " A", the order of ballads vs stadium "anthems"/upbeat songs, the first and last song being one of those or the other, the number of songs, etc. Since some albums are so short, it can't be a pattern that ends the same, and it isn't the position of songs with videos and / or that later became B sides, or the order of their release. Check me on those last couple though.

that sounds like a good hunch to me

 

Only studio LPs fulfill the rule, the EP's don't.

Thanks. So we are looking at the first and last songs only?

Ok so I've looked at every first and last song on each album and it's NOT that one is instrumental. That's only true of MX. Not true that all mention the album title in one of the songs. Not true that one raises a problem and the other solves it. I'm truly stumped.

Oh sorry, no. That must have been a misunderstanding.

Take a closer look at the songs in between.

Another theory I had is that there's always a rather upbeat/faster song following up a slow song. But this isn't really true for Mylo Xyloto...

This is a pattern that notably holds up for X&Y, but not all albums...

But but, if it is something that is in every album how can we find the one we need? [emoji1]

Combine it with clue 2 I guess...

 

@iamsue, I also had the idea that every album has the title song, except Ghost Stories.

Should look into that

But but, if it is something that is in every album how can we find the one we need?

Once you find out what is in every album, find a Coldplay song in which that principle is circumscribed.

Clue 1 and 2 are independent but converge on the same principle.

Hmm, on every album there are several songs beginning with the same letter.

Like in

Parachutes: S

AROBTTH: A

X&Y: T

VLV: L

MX: U or M

GS: A

AHFOD: A

Could it be Atlas?

 

With the first letters that are repeated on the albums you can form ATLAS

nope

You can't imagine how many similarities I have found between the albums.

But there is always 1 that conflicts. [emoji48]

 

Delivers great ideas for future riddles though. [emoji1]

I think I have found something interesting :)

 

Every album has a song that mentions a colour or some reference to it (like GS & AHFOD)

 

Yellow - Green - White - Violet - Brown - Ink (blue) - Colour

 

Square One --> Are they bleeding all your colours into one?

 

Or

all the colours are bleeding into the Colour spectrum of AHFOD

Nope, thats not it

 

I am currently a bit baffled how I can give further hints without giving it away.

And does the sound in Clue 2 not sound familiar ?

Join the club. [emoji1]

 

I'm terrible in recognising sounds...

So I hope someone else has better ideas.

Is it maybe about Til kingdom come? "The drummer begins to drum"

obviously Will begins to drum at some point in every album[emoji16]

Or has it maybe something to do with cover art? I don't have a particular song in my mind though...

Is the sound fragment from 00:50 until around 1:03?

 

Does make me think of Twisted Logic on speed. [emoji1]
