MX has lots of song titles that start with a U or an M. I'm guessing it's A this time around.

 

 

For example "Ass Against The World" (Coldplay feat. Kanye West)

What Vinny said up there about those background synths breaking off onto their own for a short while got me thinking, maybe those synths or Johnny's guitar riff in that song will be the musical theme of the album that they revisit from time to time? The snippet has a very apparent Indian influence, and from what we've seen so far, particularly with the album artwork, this album seems to be very influenced by Indian culture as a whole.

 

 

- Think about it for a second, on Ghost Stories it was the introduction ambience on AIMH, which was revisited and developed as a secret track on O.

- On MX the Mylo Xyloto intro theme was revisited on A Hopeful Transmission and the chord structure of the theme could be heard throughout the album in patches, particularly at the end of U.F.O with the guitar chords.

- On Viva La Vida the Life in Technicolor theme was revisited at the end of Death and All His Friend's secret track The Escapist.

 

 

Coldplay are pretty big on musical theme ideas it would seem, so maybe this guitar riff or synth pattern will be the theme for AHFOD?

If not this song though, I can't want to here what the theme will be!! Or perhaps there won't even be one. Who knows.

They said on the BBC radio recording that we would be listening [to their 'secret'] from dawn to dusk... Do they mean that they are just gonna keep playing the song over and over, or are we gonna get more? :o . I'm probably interpreting what they're saying wrong but I'm just throwing it out there, haha.

What time?

Also has anyone noticed that the artwork for AHFOD is like a combo of all the eras? Circles like Parachutes, intricated and detailed like AROBTTH and Ghost Stories, historically symbolic like Viva, colorful like Mylo Xyloto, but still simple like X & Y. Crazy, right?!

What time?

 

http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b06mbhnn heres the link and they say it around 2:20:17 or something- they play Yellow before they say the stuff.

i caught that too. i think coldplay will be on full promo mode friday, giving multiple interviews. also, bbc will play the song many times given the relationship coldplay has with bbc.

Ok thanks I see what you mean. Well well well coldplayers......

Same time tomorrow?

I hope they can get an interview with Zane Lowe again. I'm sure, given his closeness with the band, he's probably already heard the song.

Zane lowe probably already heard the entire album. Lucky guy.

I love that the song actually sounds like stuff I've been into lately.. Especially with the synth vocal effect on the background. I've repeated it multiple times.. And yeah pretty sure what the bbc means is the tune is out Friday and they'll obviously be playing it through the day

I know this is totally off topic but Sparky, when you die, can you give me the Coldplaying site?:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

 

Sure, i'll put it in my will!

Can't wait until Friday !!!

Something tells me that's a subtle hint that the word "awake" appears in the song title.

I was just thinking guys.. we are finally here, the light is coming in pushing all the darkness away. Finally we can see a light at the end of the tunel. Finally things are happening \0/

Sure, i'll put it in my will!

Awakening of a Lifetime

I hope coldplaying is ready for the huge influx of people that will be visiting the site!:laugh3: I remember how busy this place got right before MX was released!

Ass or Another Lie

What if they release the single/video on thursday, and the big announcement on friday it's a concert or tour in UK/Europe? :)

I dont know if I could handle that haha....i have told myself to save the craziness until friday, but if it drops tomorrow, I would be too excited

I don't think so, BBC1 stated they will be playing the surprise from dusk till dawn. Doesn't sound like a tour announcement to me, sounds like a song.

I think Friday is the latest that they could announce any tour dates that will take place before Christmas. Attendees need time to adjust their schedules and the band needs time to rehearse/get everything ready. Remember, they're using a brand new stage and performing in larger venues for the first time in 3 years. I think the AHFOD tour will be pretty big like the Viva and MX tours were.

I think we'll get the tracklist and be able to preorder AHFOD tomorrow.

I'll be honest and say when the sound first came on I was annoyed cause its just gonna be MX part two when I was hoping for the old Coldplay to come back but then I heard Wills drums and I got excited!

Riff sounds ok too.
