Unreleased songs from "Mylo Xyloto"

[TheLostColdplayer]

Hi guys, is there anyone among you that knows where I can find a photo of the famous whiteboard with the titles of the songs from the Mylo Xyloto sessions? I was interested in the unreleased songs written for Mylo Xyloto. For example here there are some photos but it's impossible to read anything.

I believe this is what you're looking for. It's a book with a lot of handwritten notes from chris during the Mylo era.

That's really interesting, thanks!

Actually I was looking for a source for the titles of unreleased songs like "Spanish Rain", "Gardeners on the Frontline", "1000 - 1 (Ballad Of...)". On Wikipedia it says that they were all written on a whiteboard, but I can't find any image of this whiteboard! ?

Anyway, thanks a lot for your link!!

A few tv shows filmed Coldplay in one of their studios and the whiteboard was in the background. The photos are screenshot from those shows. 

I did find them online at some point, but can't remember where. I'll let you know if I come across them again though.

Hi driftaguy! Thanks for answering.

I actually found something similar in the Coldplay episode of the South Bank Show (2009). That is a wonderful documentary, really detailed and well crafted with interviews to Coldplay, the magical Brian Eno, Bono and others. A shortened HD version of that episode is available in the Downloads section, but I would really love to find the full length HD version! I sincerely hope someone has it...

Anyway, the board is shown towards the end, while Chris is singing "Wedding Bells"!
