    This album was a beauty. It's was more synth-pop, new age and ambient music and it's was haunting to the debut of end. Outside the horrific ''Magic'', this album was a huge beauty and this was the alb

    Same for me. The first time I listened to it, it was a gut-wrenching experience. I remember having difficulties in listening the album from start to finish for the first time. The opener, Always in my

No, i doubt it. At one point, we thought that, but I think the video shoots were for the primetime special.

They always usually do 4 music videos per album and they already have 2 videos and it really feels like ASFoS, Ink, Always in my Head all deserve music videos, that's 5 already and that picture of Chris looking up at the camera above the water is probably for Oceans, right? That's why I thought there was going to be videos for all the songs. Still, actually to be honest it feels like a possibilty

I also thought that picture belonged to Oceans behind the scenes, but now I think it was for Ghost Stories ad.

I guess I would have to see them appearing all in 9 songs :D :D

I would bet money that that scene of Chris looking up above the pool was for the vignettes that will be shown alongside the concert in the TV special..

What interview is that from ?

Tomorrow's interview with Zane Lowe. Excerpts already have started to emerge.

Most important line of the Zane Lowe interview: "...this is not gonna be our last album" :D

I'm kinda already convinced that this is their best album

Hell yeah!

so, by my counts, we've not heard snippets of three songs: Ink, True Love and O (part 2).

did I miss one?

All Your Friends and Ghost Story, but they're on the special edition

well, those two we'll probably have to wait 'til may 19 :uhoh:

Holy shit this album has me hooked. The ambient noises, and both O and Fly On are just overwhelming. Such emotion in 42 minutes, and I don't think I will stop playing this record for a long time.

Well said!! There is so much emotion in these songs and I think everyone can relate, which makes them even better. Ghost Stories is going to be outstanding!!!

Where have people herd 'O' and 'Fly On'?

They showed a good 2 minute snippet.

I'm glad the band I fell in love with is back. After the disappointment that was MX I know this album will blow me away.

Is anyone else just getting an over whelming sense of pride and emotion from what we have heard so far both through the songs and now with some light shed on the lyrics and what they mean to Chris.. Ive never had this much anticipation for an album .. Its like I want to hear his story , we know its something true its not a concept .. I just cant get a lot of these lyrics out of my head.. Its almost haunting me ( theheh ghost stories lol ) It has a lingering impact ..An impact that makes you stop and think how amazing is it for someone to be able to take such hurt/love and strife to be better and try and make it into something amazing . This album is totally for him as a release and that's the song writing that I love. I really think this is going to be their best album .

 

Ill be honest Im a DYE hard CP fan.. Ive loved them as long as I remember and not to sound fan girly but well Ive loved at least thought of who Chris Martin seemed to be .Yet no matter how beautiful the songs have been I never connected to them personally on a high level ( ive connected and they are amazing but they weren't something that could be life changing for me personally ) like Ive connected to say U2 I dunno if its because I knew U2 wore thier heart on their sleeve and were open about it and maybe CP where a little more mysterious? Anyway I guess my point something finally just clicked to 100% for me something connected at 100% I believed every word from ghost stories that Ive heard so far.. Being able to connect to a song to me is almost like being able to connect to the person behind it . I feel like I want the best for him and for him to come out on top of this journey he seems to be on. People will say well you don't know him .. Your right I don't know him or the rest of the band ,we don't know the deep dark secrets we don't know them in day to day life but when you get lyrics that are raw and personal don't we somehow feel like we are all connected.

 

I'm so happy yet sad for this important moment in his life and the message of life and how it is fleeting. That we have to take the bad to sometimes come out on top has really resonated with me and I just wanted to share that with my thoughts about this album.. I think this may be one of my favorite albums.

 

ya know when you watch those great movies about life and they make you think about and question your heart, religion, family, all the wonderful and hard aspects of what make up a human being ... Thats what I'm getting here. I m just really feeling it !! I just really wish him and his family the best ( and I have to say him and not CP because I feel like this is his heart on his sleeve with the love and support of his bandmates )

 

Or have I gone mad? lol

You brought a year to my eye, well done-- I couldn't have said it better. I think anyone who listens to this album will be able to feel how "real" it is.

Regardless of charts and critics, this album will be very special for any Coldplay fan.
