May 19, 201412 yr If anyone gets their copy from Amazon uk which was shipped Saturday, please let me know so i can get through my working day! I got an email from Amazon yesterday saying Ghost Stories had been dispatched and would be delivered on Tuesday, an email today saying it'll be delivered today and not long ago it came through my front door! :D x

May 19, 201412 yr Did you pay for first class post or the dearer postal option? I chose the free post option which can take a few days. I ordered it on Tuesday just gone. I just checked the order confirmation email which said the estimated delivery date could be this Thursday or this Saturday! I'm so glad it came today and hope yours is waiting for you when you get home from work! x

I never seem to have luck when it comes to ordering pre releases from amazon,even when I pay for first class post! Edit: Well, for the first time ever, Amazon have delivered a pre order on time! :)

Edit: Well, for the first time ever, Amazon have delivered a pre order on time! :) You're welcome! I've never ordered an album online before lol and was wondering how pre-ordering worked in terms of if we would get Ghost Stories on the actual release date. I was really doubting it! Please let me/us know if you get/got your copy today, I'm curious! Actually, by your Edit, does that mean you now have your copy from Amazon? :D x

It's a miracle!
May 19, 201412 yr I ordered mine a few hours ago on Amazon so my physical copy will be in my hands soon :dance: But I also got the dowloadable version (autorip thing) and my first impression is that it's very airy except for ASFOS because it's more on the dancing electro side. I think I will listen to that record a lot :D
May 20, 201412 yr I also think so-- there has been a vocal minority of negativity on here but I think this is their finest work. I disagree. While a GOOD album, in my opinion, this is not their best work. Lyrically, composition-wise, no Ghost Story but the watered down Sky Full of Stars, too many modern fads.

May 20, 201412 yr Eh. Maybe in some areas. But in others this album just doesn't satisfy. There is a large discrepancy between the good side and bad side Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

June 11, 201412 yr I didn't know exactly where to post this, but here it goes. This is a part of Cemeteries of London: So we rode down to the river where the toiling ghosts strain for their curses to be broken… We’d go underneath the arches where the witches are in there saying there are ghost towns in the ocean… The ocean… Ghosts and oceans!

May 20, 20188 yr I don't know if this picture is old or not, but this was supposed to be the tracklist of GS: There's no ASFOS nor Magic. I bet that the record company forced them to make some 'pop songs' to increase the sales. When sales wasn't (at all) the point of GS...
May 20, 20188 yr I don't think Coldplay get told what to do anymore. They are Parlophone's biggest act by far, and no matter what they release they always sell big. World Without You sounds like a song with a similar meaning to A Sky Full of Stas judging by the title and its place on the album, I just assume that new songs came about.
May 20, 20188 yr No ink either on that? The Race perhaps would’ve replaced it if it was on the tracklist
May 22, 20188 yr If you think about it this whole album is the opposite of Moses In what way do you mean ?
May 22, 20188 yr In what way do you mean ? Since Moses was about falling in love with Gwyneth and Ghost Stories was about getting divorced from her
May 22, 20188 yr ...and Ghost Stories was about getting divorced from her It's not about that. It's about something that happened a really, really long time ago. A total car crash. It's about someone who is asleep somewhere and still haunts someones dreams. Perhaps it's even about someone waking up and meeting someone again. Who can say. Perhaps it's about someone who dreams of someone who is sleeping and someone else who awakes only to find everyone is asleep. It's something like that. love Freya
October 2, 20214 yr Still there best album, they where really experimenting with sounds and atmospheres.
March 20, 20224 yr 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 album who Chris deployed all his emotions in his voice in the album, to debut of end, you hear all the pain, the madness, the sadness and the drama of his voice (including in ''A Sky Full of Stars''). He cited thier most personal album and all the emotions that Chris have after the separation with Gwyneth, he put all of the table. I didn't hear a personal album like that before for the group since thier debut depist it's have few personals songs before (like ''Fix You''). For me, this album was a therapy for Chris and helped him to starting a new chapter of his life after her relation with Gwyneth ending and for the good for his two childrens. The next album was a way to he passed a another chapter and wanted to amusing after the depressed mood of this album. This album, like A Rush of Blood to the Head was a masterpiece and a album who i wanted to listen every time and many wasn't expected who Coldplay released a very dark album. Midnight was my favorite song of the album.
