Features Backing Vocals Juanita Stein?
Yeah, I don't get what the fuss is either. It's not very noticeable and it actually makes the song sound a lot better. I've got no complaints for it. Just be glad it isn't another Rihanna like duet. ;)
-
Why the hate?
Maybe because it's too pop for a Coldplay song and it has a pop singer in it. Personally, I like it. One of my favourite song on the album. However, I wished it didn't have Rihanna on it. If they wanted her so badly, they should have re-release the song as a single with her in it. I hate anyone else singing on a Coldplay album. :P
-
Best ending track?
Does The Escapist count? If it does, I'll go for that. :P But with the poll, I went with Up With the Birds.
-
Which transition do you think completes the next song the best?
MMIX to Every Teardrop. But I want to vote for AHT to DLIBYH 'cause AHT is my favourite instrumental. :P

Features Backing Vocals Juanita Stein?
People thought it was Will? Lol. Surely he doesn't sound like a girl! It was quite obvious that it wasn't Will to me. *shrug*

Kasabian
Oh thanks! :D Sadly, I can't go for the Kasabian concert in S'pore. :( They are coming to NZ as well but I'm moving during that time (to the other end of the country) and it would be extremely difficult and expensive to go for it. Hopefully the next time.

Florence + The Machine
Just listened to the album and nothing stood out for me yet. It took me a few listens to get into Lungs and fall in love with it so I'll give my final verdict on Ceremonials after a few listens. The only tracks that stood out for me on the first listen were Only If For a Night and All This and Heaven Too.

So who else thinks this is by far Coldplay's weakest album yet?
I still think X&Y is their weakest album. MX would be if most of the songs were like ETIAW. Thankfully it's not. MX is not their strongest album but I do enjoy it a lot and don't think it was their weakest moment.
-
Your choice of X&Y tracklisting?
1) Square One 2) Things I Don't Understand 3) White Shadows 4) Talk (can't decide whether to put in the album version or the original advance version) 5) The World Turned Upside Down 6) How You See The World (1 or 2) 7) A Message 8) Low 9) Sleeping Sun 10) Swallowed In The Sea 11) Twisted Logic 12) 'Til Kingdom Come 13) Fix You Singles: Square One (b-sides: X&Y, Speed of Sound) Talk (b-sides: What If, Proof, Talk [advanced version or the other one; depending on which went into the album]) Fix You (b-sides: Gravity, Pour Me) Scrape The Hardest Part
-
Favorite album opener/closer?
Opener: Politik...or Square One Closer: Up With the Birds
-
Favourite B-sides?
Oh this is too hard! In no particular order because it's even harder: 1) Things I Don't Understand 2) For You 3) I Ran Away 4) A Spell A Rebel Yell 5) Sleeping Sun I feel The World Turned Upside Down and Moses should be up there as well.

MX Era Music Videos
This! :D So Will's going to sing Rihanna's parts?
-
A hidden Track at the end the end of UFO?
Nah, it was still added in as it's been credited in the album.

Anyone want Chris Martin's watch?
It's called a Chris Martin watch now? :dozey: Lol. I like that you point out who Jonny is. :laugh3:
-
Princess of China and the similarity between a song of Vietnam !?
It's interesting that Coldplay would credit/acknowledge Sigur Ros for using Takk as a sample in the song but not this chick. So it goes to show that they didn't know about it and it's just some really weird coincidence.
-
This is not a Coldplay song.
I actually like it. Though I feel it's more suited during the VLV era than this era. It has Spell A Rebel Yell feel to it. Though I wished Rihanna wasn't part of it. I don't like anyone singing on a Coldplay album. They should have recorded it without Rihanna and put that in the album and then release a single with Rihanna on it.

A Note On Chris' Voice
The one that bothers me the most is Major Minus. The rest sounds ok. Not that I like it - they could do without it of course - but the others like HLH doesn't bother me as much as Chris' voice in Major Minus.
-
Mystery Lyrics..
That's what I thought. So there's hope that there might be an EP. :wink3:
-
Florence + The Machine
Really? It's one of my favs. :P But Blinding is my all time favourite.
-
Do you like Princess of China?
Yup. If I'm not wrong, it's heard quite well during the transition from UFO to PoC. The sample is from Sigur Ros Takk.
