Yeah, 12th June is a Thursday.

I wasn't a fan when X&Y came out - I ordered it off CD WOW for about £6 in November 2005 :P This time I'm looking forwar to going into a shop and buying it :D Then for the buses to be delayed by a few hours, and the trains to all break down. That better hadn't happen.

I LOVE the Magic Dance :D

Losing My Religion is incredible. From the second it starts it takes hold of you and doesn't let go. That mandolin just keeps looping and looping, like a train, until the slight pause near the end. It seems to go at 100mph. I love the lyric, "Consider this, the hint of the century". I don't exactly understand what the hint is, but it's just amazing. Ahhhh (runs off to listen). History seems to get a bit of 'stick' from fans on The Verve forums, I don't know why, I think it's a beautiful song. Inspired by a William Blake poem that we studied in English a couple of years ago called 'London'.

That's interesting David. Do you mean HMV are going to sell it relatively cheap, or are they planning on doing a "Buy Viva La Vida and get another CD free" kind of deal?

I'm sure one of the mods will delete it soon.

Cake is a made-up drug that Channel 4 show Brass Eye got a load of celebrities, including Noel Edmonds and Rolf Harris, to speak out about and warn people how dangerous it is. The celebrities fell for it and thought that it was an ACTUAL drug. The results were hilarious.

Break the rules and you may hit gold.

Anyone ever tried CAKE?

Yay! A Beatles cover on the cards maybe? How exciting :D

Only listened to the album a few times, but stand out tracks are Time To Pretend, The Youth and Kids. Really good band.

Out of bed, and 2 more to go! And so as not to make this a silly 'spammy' post, I'll try to answer the question. People have so many posts because they live, breathe, sleep, eat and drink Coldplaying. Ta-dahh.

AHHHHHHHH MIMI, Coldplay coming to Liverpool???!!! GET IN!!!

I'm trying to get to 1500 before I go to bed :P

No I'm sure not. Try not to worry about it. If you've clicked the link and got the 2nd email then you're good to go. Just cross everything and pray you get picked. If not, then hopefully you'll be able to get to one of there other shows :)

Cool! Jonny's slide guitar sounds great on piano, I was playing that this morning too actually.

Hi Mark! What instrument do you play?

I recognise you from the other forum, you're the pretty pretty girl! How lovely of you to join here also :)

Once you click the verification link then you should get a "Congratulations, you have been entered into the draw" email as well :)

Will Fair Trade still be on the agenda for the Viva La Vida era?

I loved the Eurosport tagline for Euro 2000 - "No sleep till Rotterdam". They had football shows on TV all through the night, highlights, chat, everything - and the final was in Rotterdam. Great memories. The tagline for Euro 2008 has to have Coldplay in it somewhere, suggestions lol?

Thanks for all your help David. Now you mention it, I think there's some way of enabling multi-region DVD playback on the DVD player we have, I'll have to check that... If not then that £20 player would be a good option - it's cheap and it does the job!

Guy (Garvey) sung backing vocals on Snowden by Doves.

No harm in giving it a go :) It'd have to be a proper jobsworth/git that would charge or fine you or send you to jail for busking.

1. Coldplay 2. Coldplay 3. Coldplay 4. Coldplay 5. Coldplay Couldn't help it - they're the only band in my life right now.
