This is definitely growing on me. It was not what I expected from the title. :P Would give it a 7.5 right now but it would definitely increase after time. :) And I agree with those who said it was too short. It really is!

Glad it wasn't on the album. Don't think it would have fit. Would have slowed the momentum down in my opinion. (Kinda why I don't like Up In Flames). Happy that it stayed as a b-side.

I have to admit hearing the song live kinda ruined the magic of this song on the album. It fell flat for me when I listened to the studio version. Or maybe because the live version was much better than the studio version. :P

Same. DAAHF was weird as it sounds quite disjointed. It's more like two different songs being smashed together and hope it becomes one good song. Though UWTB have the same feel, it flows better than DAAHF, in my opinion.

It would have been Viva is the radios didn't overplayed it. Such a great song ruined by overplay. So picking CB. I'm really hoping CB won't become a single because of this reason.

Agreed! If the b-sides were on the actual album, X&Y would have been a much better album.

Damn. HLH sounds amazing! Hate Rihanna with a passion but that cover was <3

To many threads on the board; it needs to be heard.

Been avoiding this since it leaked! Was suppose to be out in stores today but when I went to look for it, they told me that it hasn't arrived yet. Probably tomorrow afternoon. Grrrr... Guess I have to wait another day longer. :veryangry2:

Don't think it will be released as a single this early. Too soon since Paradise and MX.

I wouldn't say worst to be honest as none was very bad. Weakest would be a better word. :P Would go with X&Y. Don't get me wrong, it's a great awesome but compared with the rest, it's the weakest album from the boys.

I saw the MX poster in my music store today. Not as good as this Mylo Xyloto one though. I might see if I can get it when I go and buy the new Florence and the Machine album. :D

Yes. Next time, I'm going to heard new songs once or not at all. It ruined the surprise for me. That's why I prefer the second half of the album better than the first. Mostly because I've heard the first half so many times, it's been there and done that. When I first played the album, I was itching to skip through all the live songs so I can get to those I haven't heard yet. Didn't though as I forced to keep my hands to myself. Next time would be a big no-no!

Wasn't there mystery lyrics on VLV as well that didn't turn up in the songs? I can't remember what they were or if they turned up in Prospekt's March EP but I recall something similar. I could be wrong though. Whatever it is, I really hope for another EP a la Prospekt's March. :D

It's a female, not Will. The boys have said that there was another singer (female) singing on one of their songs so I'm guessing this is it. 'Cause I don't hear any other female on the record beside PoC and here. It's quite clear when you have earphones on and the volume turned up. Very obvious it isn't Will.

Mine...(in no particular order) GREAT: Up With the Birds Princess of China Paradise Charlie Brown UFO GOOD: Major Minus Us Against the World Don't Let it Break Your Heart Hurts Like Heaven MEH: Every Teardrop is a Waterfall Up In Flames

Sweet! Would love to have a poster like that!

It's obvious this should be single. One of the biggest female pop singers on the same song as one of the biggest band around? It screams single. Just don't think it would happen anytime soon though with Paradise and MX just being released.

Any Singaporean Kasabian fans here? Heard that they'll be performing on the 8th of Jan @ Fort Canning. I'll be back in S'pore for holiday but leaving 4 days earlier! Grrr! Might try to change my flight for it. This is one concert I MUST see. :D

I'm curious. For those who hated the name Mylo Xyloto before it was confirmed, do you guys still hate or have you changed your mind?

Yup! There's already a thread for it here: http://coldplaying.com/forum/showthread.php?t=89914 ;)

On the XFM Playback interview, the boys said that this piece of sound/music is as sample of a Queen song. Interesting.

To be honest, it's a very Coldplay song to me. :smug:

Not really. I hear Glass of Water to be honest.
