Can't wait to hear the full song.

That instrumental version sounds very repetitive. I really hope the song is not like that or that the lyrics make the difference.

Coldplay and Coldplaying

Can May 19 come already? Can't really wait for this one. Such a precious jewel.

A brilliant song. From the snippet we heard. It's going to be very high up in my chart of favorite Coldplay songs. Probably right next to Fix You.

Hell yeah!

I do really think that calling Avicii in was a bit too much. I would have included an acoustic version of the song in the album and then call Avicii to make the remix. Having said that, I am SO grateful with the boys for this record that I will eat my hat and enjoy the song (even though I think it does not sound as Coldplay at all). They have never disappointed and maybe when I hear the full song I will be convinced. For now, not liking at all this little experiment. The rest of the album is BRILLIANT, though. Especially, "O".

Please bear in mind I only heard snippets of some songs: 1. O 2. Always In My Head 3. Magic 4. Oceans 5. Midnight 6. Another's Arms 7. A Sky Full of Stars (I think that bringing Avicii was too much)

Hopefully only Coldplay!

Grids, what time is where you are? Maybe that means that all iTunes store will release the song once it is April 29 in the respective countries?

3 hours to go for the Zane Lowe interview. Go to BBC Radio 1 to hear.

Still no upload of the song?

But is is true because the song has already some popularity in the iTunes Indonesia store.

How come it hasn't leak yet? Unbelievable!

Are you sure?

Let me guess the 9 countries participating: Canada, United States, Germany, the Netherlands, Germany, Japan, France, Spain and Australia.

Ghost Stories lyrics hidden in libraries worldwide 28 April 2014 1:20 pm Fans asked to help unveil handwritten lyrics Good afternoon. The band have decided to reveal the lyrics for all nine songs from the upcoming Ghost Stories album by hiding Chris’s handwritten lyric sheets in libraries worldwide. The lyrics will be hidden in ghost story books in libraries in nine countries, located across the planet. Clues to the exact locations of the lyrics will be posted from today on the band’s Twitter account - twitter.com/coldplay - using the hashtag #lyricshunt. Fans will be encouraged to help solve the clues and visit their local library to see if they can find an envelope containing one of the unique lyrics sheets. As each one is discovered, a photo of that particular lyric sheet will be posted, for everyone to see. One of the hidden envelopes also contains a special Golden Ticket, giving the finder (and a guest) a free trip to London to see Coldplay perform at the Royal Albert Hall on 1 July.

I am very happy for this interview, don't get me wrong. But it would have been RAD if it would have included also Jonny, Guy and Will!

I concur. Or Midnight. But no ASFOS.

I'll listen live and then watch the video. Anyways, I will see the interview multiple times over the next days!

TODAY is the day! What a treat!

I highly doubt they will release a song this week. I guess we will have to wait until next week for ASFOS.

Tomorrow's interview with Zane Lowe. Excerpts already have started to emerge.

"'Life throws these colorful challenges at you … what we decided to do on Ghost Stories was to really be honest about it and say, this is what’s been happening." Chris Martin.

"So what Ghost Stories means to me is like you've got to open yourself up to love and if you really do, of course it will be painful at times, but then it will be great at some point." Chris Martin.
