LelieJens Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 I still haven't decided if I want to wait until the 22nd and hear the live versions first, or listen to the leak and hear the studio versions first Yeah I have the same thought. I would really like someone to convince me to listen to it before or just wait until the live performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danirl87 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Yeah I have the same thought. I would really like someone to convince me to listen to it before or just wait until the live performance. Listen now. It's very good. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LelieJens Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Listen now. It's very good. Ahhhh but I think it would ruin the live performance surprise, wouldn't it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coeurli Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 I still haven't decided if I want to wait until the 22nd and hear the live versions first, or listen to the leak and hear the studio versions first My plan : listen to the album just once as soon as it's released (hopefully midnight that day), then the live versions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Crieff Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 I was just thinking how are we going to resist the urge during the hours between the two performances anyway........... hmmm. Might as well cave now then (not literally now, it's a quarter past midnight) hmmmmmmmm still not sure 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LelieJens Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 My plan : listen to the album just once as soon as it's released (hopefully midnight that day), then the live versions That's a good one actually. Okay I've decided: I'm going to wait until both of the live performances are finished, and only then I'm going to listen through the album 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ran away Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Interesting that the band is using a Mellotron for this album, I don't think they've used one since In My Place have they? Or was that even a Mellotron in the first place? More importantly, who cares? :joy: Where ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coeurli Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 My ultimate argument for anyone who's undecided about whether or not to look for a leak right now : they won't tour this album, and while there are signs that the next one is coming soon, we don't know exactly when, we don't know for sure how long we are going to have to wait for new Coldplay music. One way to make this era feel just a little bit longer is to wait those few days that separate us from official album release... 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LelieJens Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Or download the leak but don't listen to the files until the album's official release day. ^^ Maybe I will do it this way, as I don't pre-order things and I'm very sure I can't get the CD and double-LP on release day, the time when I order them.

andrewsky Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Spotify? Of course. But I prefer high quality audio. :p 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Adversary Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 I think if you have every intention of buying the album it’s okay to listen to the leaks. The above argument is a bit strange, we don’t know how long we’ll have to wait for new Coldplay because this album is not being toured, so we should wait even longer to listen to Coldplay when a leak of the whole album is already out there? I don’t see the logic in that if I’m honest. If you’re still dead set against listening now I’d advise you to stay away from any Coldplay sites because, if you’re anything like me, you wouldn’t be able to wait after reading what people have been saying. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t see the logic in that if I’m honest. My point is : we only have a week and a half to wait for new Coldplay music, we know that, but we don't know how much we are going to have to wait after that, and it definitely won't be just 10 days haha and in the meantime we already have some content to keep us waiting. Once they're done promoting (which tbh could happen very very fast), it's completely over. So yeah if you wait until official release date, you do have a longer time enjoying the era and the experiences as they are meant to be experienced. Btw i do not personally have a strong stance on leaks, the only thing that matters to me is that everyone buys the album. I'm just here for emotional support to whoever is unsure or looking for arguments not to hear it lol AND OFFICIALLY : As a Coldplaying moderator I am here to remind you that we do not encourage leaks as they are, well, illegal and disrespectful to the band and their crew and jeopardize their campaign. The latest posts in this thread have been encouraging leaks and listening to leaks a lot and that's just not in line with Coldplaying's official stance on the matter. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eskapist Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 I listened to it but i agree with Coeurli anyway. I'd never have listened to it if i wasn't sure to buy the album DAY ONE ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParadiseLost Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Interesting discussion - I already caved though. :joy: Have ordered my copy so hope its okay :D The boys always have great live performances. But if I take the example of Everyday Life (the song), I didn't hear the song before the performance and while I still enjoyed it, I only appreciated it's beauty after hearing the studio version... Dunno, for me I think, the studio version sets a kind of expectation of the song and the live version shatters it and it feels great. But the other way round takes away from both the things -- the performance seems alien and the album then will feel weird. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shred Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Well introducing most of MX songs on tour ruin the album for me so I think I’ll listen to the studio version first before the live stream. That is if the album is up on Spotify before the live performance. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's quite rough to wait another week knowing that the album is out there, but I think I can handle it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone else sticking it out til 22nd Nov? I'm doing my best to persist in waiting till 22 November even though I've already heard snippets of few songs from the leaked album that my friends sent me and read countless reviews because I'm keen on the idea of hyping myself up for next week haha. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
