"Also when you pre-order, the title track will begin to download immediatley" :shocked2: :shocked2: :shocked2: SOMEONE! PRE-ORDER NOW!!!!!!!!!!!

So it's been The 7th of May for ages over here - how long until the Brits wake up and get thier magazines?

It seems Lost? is merly Lost! acoustic version, so no big hip-hop beat by the looks of it then...

Chwwwwwwhat???? Pity I have no iTunes credit! :\ Saving mah pennies for the physical formats! http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPreorder?id=279996614&s=143460

http://www.commonsensemedia.org/music-reviews/Violet-Hill-CD-single.html I had no idea sites like that even existed! :laugh3:

amazon.de is cheaper... I think

But are you 'Lost?'

The German CD of Violet Hill will have Lost? as a b-side, as will the Japanese Edition of Viva La Vida as a bonus track. Lost? is an alternative version of the album track Lost! I'm guessing that Lost? will have that "big hip-hop beat" that was apparently dropped for the album version.

I may not be able to buy this though, I'm saving up for a new carpet for Ian.

YES! I would but it'll take at least 2 and a half weeks to reach me.

In that one post is shows you've completely missed the point of this thread.

Yeah, I'm not overly impressed with this song either. But lets face it - it's a b-side for a vinyl which will only be availible for one week and wasn't featured on any lists of songs that would potentially make the album (unless it's been renamed, but it's not on the album anyway)

Haven't actually gotten a proper chance to listen yet though on first glimpse Letting You is brilliant.

Trent's done it again! Another Radiohead that is. This time it's "The Slip" - a proper album this time. And it's 100% free! Downloading now. :D

u cerial?

Yeah, it looks like it'll also be on the Japanese edition of VLV. Don't suppose some kind soul will let us hear this in the multimedia section? (when it's out of course)

Well we don't know that for sure, though it's highly possible due to the Japanese edition of VLV having a different version of Lost as a bonus track. I guess when the Germans get this CD and there's a big hip-hop beat we'll know. :P

Yeah, it will be released as a CD in Germany but nowhere else to my current knowledge. Certainly not the UK.

First I'd like to defend and say that both Speed Of Sound and Fix You are AMAZING and underrated. But I agree. The first single never has the habit of being strongest, it's usually 2nd or even 3rd which defines the brilliance of the album. Which is why I'm not worried by Violet Hill. In fact I'm really excited!

Thanks for the post, though we'd known this for ages already. But you wernt to know.

Interesting observation!

If Prospekt is Locust then who is Locust? :laugh3:

Not sure about it myself, but it's only a b-side after all. And all Coldplay is good Coldplay!

Thanks heaps locust! :D Though the news about the leak isn't good, but still...

With the combined songs, what are the transistions between song a and song b like? And what about Cemeteries of London? I'm certain I've heard that was considered as a single.
