I added a few seconds of silence here and there, but this is what I've done: Mylo Xyloto Hurts Like Heaven Paradise Charlie Brown Us Against The World Moving To Mars M.M.I.X. Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall Major Minus U.F.O. Princess Of China Christmas Lights Up In Flames A Hopeful Transmission Don't Let It Break Your Heart Up With The Birds Adding Moving To Mars where I have gives a nice contemplative four minutes between Us Against The World and Every Teardrop. I enjoy it anyway. I've also added Christmas Lights just because I like it and it was obviously recorded in the same sessions as the album proper. It feels, to me, like a small piece of a larger picture painted by Coldplay. But whatever makes you happy on your own playlists is what I say!

If you need Lovers In Japan without Reign Of Love, why not just edit them? I did so because it was nonsense to fast forward through Lovers to get to Reign. If you want, I could upload them.

For those that don't want to wait for a CD in the mail, here's the lossless rip: http://www.demonoid.com/files/details/1925176/4651332/

"The buildings that you put up, or Japan and Las Vegas all lit up..." :)

During Chinese Sleep Chant, Chris sings, obviously. At certain points Guy does as well. Guy's voice is processed through what sounds like a vocoder to make it sound more robotic. It sounds fantastic. It was just a real subtle but brillant addition. That whole song impressed me, actually.

Oh yeah, definitely. I'm just tired. It was 117 here today and I was out on the strip for most of it. I think Will's drums sounded better when I saw them back in Dallas during the X&Y tour, but I'm just nitpicking. Oh, how has no one mentioned Guy's robot vocoder voice during Chinese Sleep Chant? That was awesome.

There wasn't anything that incredibly different about this show from the previous ones. Chris made some Vegas references. Said Lost! wasn't supposed to be gambling advice. Sang Green Eyes better than the album, I thought. Wonderful performance that. Viva La Vida was way better live than I was lead to believe on television. Uhm, the Bill O'Reilly thing was funny. Guy was on the casino floor taking pictures during the day. No one really seems to notice him all that much. Chinese Sleep Chant was pretty cool with the lasers and stuff. What I was most impressed with was that they were able to fire up a (mostly) Vegas crowd. Crowds here are usually pretty shit.

Life In Technicolor (intro) Violet Hill Clocks In My Place Viva La Vida Yes 42 The Scientist Strawberry Swing Chinese Sleep Chant God Put A Smile Upon Your Face Speed Of Sound Yellow Lost! Green Eyes Death Will Never Conquer ----- Politik Lovers In Japan Fix You --- Death And All His Friends The Escapist (outro) Green Eyes and Death Will Never Conquer were done from the back section. Yellow was the electric version. Fabulous show.

Aye.

I can't believe they left is as an instrumental track. The reason being that the build in that song is incredible, and dare I say it, better than Where The Streets Have No Name. When the drums start bubbling in, you just sit there waiting for it to explode.

Swallowed In The Sea might have been better. White Shadows is a nice balls-to-the-wall rock song, though.
