Seemingly another unnecessary release by a record label in order to simply cash in; 'Prospekt's March' does little to dissuade from this statement with three of it's eight tracks having featured on the 'Viva La Vida..' album albeit in a slightly different guise, report Altsounds.
Firstly we get 'Life In Technicolor ii' which is simply the lead track on the latest album which was instrumental but this time we get Chris Martin crooning over the top 'I can hear it coming/I can hear the siren sound/now my feet won't touch the ground' I don't quite know what he's on about but then who ever does? It's intriguing, however; to wonder did the music or the lyrics come first because I can't see any reason for this not being on 'Viva La Vida..' in place of the instrumental version... very odd.
Secondly we get 'Lost' but with added Jay-Z because that is clearly what all Coldplay tracks have been missing - someone to rap about Tupac and Biggie over them! And lastly we get the Osaka Sun Mis of 'Lovers In Japan' now this was a highlight of 'Viva La Vida..' for me personally but I just cannot see what is so different here to be honest it's simply just filler.
