X42Y

See now you get it :3 (I'm new but I'm so glad someone else figured out its not anti-illuminati entirely or other conspiracy nonsense.)

It's about oppressive dystopian society and being watched by CCTV cameras. The Orwellian concept of Big Brother Is Watching You! Things of that messed up nature. (Seriously there are tons of novels dealing with this 1984, Fahrenheit 451, Brave New World, The Giver, even Insurgent and The Hunger Games. There are some great Twilight Zone episodes dealing with it too.) Which stems from history, fascism and totalitarian states. Hell even The Galactic Empire of Star Wars fame takes a page from it. Or even how some percive goverment as evil, unjust and unnecessary in its current incarnation. And that we're at the dawn of a new world order. All in all it ties in with the comic and album quite nicely IMO :)

1. X&Y (Fav songs X&Y, Twisted Logic or Square One) 2. AROBTTH (Fav songs Daylight, AROBTTH, Clocks or Politik) 3. Mylo Xyloto (Fav songs Major Minus, UATW, M.M.I.X/ETIAW or MX/HLH) 4. VLVODAAHF (Fav songs too hard to chose prob Yes/Chinese Sleep Chant or 42?) 5. Parachutes (Fav songs Don't Panic, Spies or High Speed) 6. Ghost Stories (Fav songs hard to say I enjoyed this one immensely xD Always In My Head, Midnight or ASFOS) 7. AHFOD (So far AOAL, Amazing Day or Up&Up and the rest IDK need to listen to it to decide) Yeah I love cheesy stuff :3 It's my weakness xD

Really xD I love the studio version :3 Yellow +Beautiful instrumentation all around (fits the song mood well) love how they always manage to breathe life into each tour and very simple yet pretty music video. -Okay lyrics, the two stories for how it got its title and its way way too overplayed. X&Y

I Bloom Blaum Not gonna lie I've only listened to it twice :p But from what I heard... +Beautiful delicate song love how sparse it is -Terrible title IMO The Blue People in Icelandic xD Always In My Head

Hmm I saw a little of that... Oh I'll be fine it will be great talking to all you wise old timers :3

Its just great to be here among a community who loves this band :D

Hmm I couldn't think of any xD AROBTTH +Perfect title track, love the edgy nervous feel to it and live it's amazing especially Jonny's guitar work. -The studio version lacks the punch and definition of the live one and lacks the soloish thing J does live. Up With The Birds

I remember listening to Viva La Vida (song) when it was first played on the radio in 2008. And I'll be honest it wasn't love at first sight xD I hated the band at first. But then I listened to Yellow, Clocks and Speed of Sound in beginning of 2009 and instantly loved those songs. Saw the Strawberry Swing music video next and was hooked :D Spent the greater part of 2010 listening to and immersing my self in AROBTTH. By time MX was out I was caught up with their back catalogue and was made a lifelong fan. Still love X&Y the most though :)

Hi! It's nice to meet you Diogo :)

Swallowed In The Sea + Beautiful guitar work by Jonny and lovely, inspiring lyrics by Chris. -The bass riff is okay :p (Needed more energy and emotion) Major Minus
