Sparky

It was sent to US alternative radio stations today. Indications it could be the fourth single! Added a poll too, True Love v Ink, which is your favourite song now? Will be interesting to see considering it was very close during the album release! Coldplaying.com article

Cedarwood Road has grown on me a lot too :) "If the door is open it isn’t theft, you can’t return to where you’ve never left"

Chris will feature in an interview, expected to be broadcast this Friday on HBO + an all purpose Coldplay + Foo Fighters thread with a look back to the Walk video bumper sticker and photos with Dave Grohl! <a href="http://www.coldplaying.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/chris-martin-foo-fighters.png"><img src="http://www.coldplaying.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/chris-martin-foo-fighters.png" alt="Chris Martin - Foo Fighters documentary" width="956" height="478" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-44767" /></a> <strong><em>Sonic Highways</em>, the latest Foo Fighters documentary will air on American TV station, HBO this Friday 17th October. The documentary detailing the making of their forthcoming album, also titled <em>Sonic Highways</em> follows the efforts of Dave Grohl and co as they record each song of the new album in a different city and studio across the US. A pal of frontman, Dave Grohl is our very own Chris Martin and he will be interviewed for the TV series. Infact, it's already being filmed.</strong> <!--more--> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>WE FINALLY KNOW. <a href="https://twitter.com/ColdplayAtlas">@ColdplayAtlas</a> <a href="http://t.co/sgk6nu4CRJ">pic.twitter.com/sgk6nu4CRJ</a></p>— SY (@BeACartoonHeart) <a href="https://twitter.com/BeACartoonHeart/status/521702389364326400">October 13, 2014</a></blockquote> <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> ^ Thanks to @Coldplayatlas on Twitter. Chris Martin appears for a split second at 1:35 during the latest Youtube teaser for the series. <h2> Walk the Talk? </h2> Do you remember the video for <em>Walk</em> by the Foo Fighters in 2011? It featured a 'Coldplay' bumper sticker followed by a shake of the head by Mr Dave Grohl who did state in an interview he likes the 'Coldplay guys' but he likes to make fun of them and the rocker compared it to being married to someone and wanting to make fun of them all the time <a href=" title="Foo Fighters - Coldplay - Dasding" target="_blank">during his interview with Dasding.tv</a>! [video=youtube;4PkcfQtibmU] This gives me a perfect excuse to also post this cool picture of Dave Grohl with Jonny Buckland and Will Champion during the Viva era!

Thank you :) I should be able to make it :D

0 - Intro (ET?) 1 - Big ass Will drum bashing energetic rocking anthem (LP7 song) 2 - Politik (yes, back to that slot, bigger than ever!) 3 - Coldplay's best ever song so far (LP7 song) --- Crowd chanting 4 - Paradise 5 - Violet Hill 6 - Piano ballad (LP7 song) 7 - Shiver 8 - GPASUYF (Techno + 2012 version combined!) 9 - In My Place --------- B-stage 10 - LP7 song 11 - Oceans -------- Main stage again 12 - Clocks 13 - Viva La Vida 14 - New song with Rihanna (LP7 song - the one Chris mentioned in the interview) 15 - LP7 song 16 - Trouble ---------- c-stage 17 - Magic (agree with jackparker) ----- main stage 18 - LP7 song 19 - A Sky Full Of Stars 20 - A Message 21 - Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall ------ encore... 22 - Charlie Brown 23 - LP7 song 24 - LP7 song A mixture of hope and realism :P I don't think we will see Always In My Head again and 100% for sure not as the first song of the show, I think not many Ghost Stories songs will make it when its a stadium based setlist, Fix You is on the way out for a little period like Politik, In My Place will stay around, its Jonny's song :D (Magic is Guy's, the new intro will be Will's ;) ) X&Y will only have one song again sadly, I have feeling A Message will be make a surprise return.

The problems with the logging out and the notifications changing/not updating should be solved now :)

Still working on it, it's a pain. The two issues are the server (its fluctuating at the moment) and the issue with the cookies which causes the logging in problem / the ones posted above.

Logic says the situation will be like U2's in the future because of the size of the band but its a very different and changing music industry so who knows what may happen in 10-20 years!

Nah, its the same in most major countries, the mechanics don't change, the music industry here has been 'Americanized' since 2006. In the film mentioned, Coldplay were mentioned as they were on the same label but with the amount of albums Coldplay sell, they are not subject to the same treatment as smaller artists. Stereophonics formed their own label a few years ago, it did wonders for them. Coldplay don't really have anything to worry about because of their status but I think it could happen one day.

Watch the film 'artifact' by 30 Seconds to Mars, a real big eye opener into the workings of record labels. They would do their utmost not to upset Coldplay though as they are important to them but other smaller and mid sized artists, its another story. That's a lot of songs to be aired during the coverage. I wish it was for the premier league instead :P

If you live in the US, YOU can claim :laugh3: ------------------------------ Austrian manufacturer loses US lawsuit and agrees to pay out to anyone who drank Red Bull in America in the last 12 years 2930 Shares Share Tweet +1 Email Red Bull DOESN'T give you wings – who knew? The famous energy drink slogan has been found to be false after a US lawsuit. And the Austrian manufacturer has agreed to cough up a bank-busting $13million (£8.1m) to settle over false advertising. It means anyone who glugged a can of Red Bull stateside in the last 12 years could soon have a cash windfall winging their way. And they don't even need a proof of purchase. They shouldn't moon the boss, cancel the milk and book round-the-world flights just yet though. Because the company – which admitted no wrongdoing – has only agreed to fork out $10 (£6.17) cash or $15 (£9.26) worth of Red Bull products per person up to the cap of $13m. A website - energydrinksettlement.com - set up by Red Bull to process claims crashed after a flood of traffic this week. Getty / asasinz2 / Youtube Can you believe it? Red Bull has lost a lawsuit over the 'gives you wings' claimsThere’s a deadline of March 2015 to submit an application. The false ad lawsuit was kicked off in 2013 by a US consumer, Benjamin Careathers. He argued the Red Bull slogan clearly doesn't mean the drink will give you wings. But he claimed it is generally accepted the drink should give a higher energy boost than an average cup of coffee. At a hearing in August, a judge agreed with him. "Even though there is a lack of genuine scientific support for a claim that Red Bull branded energy drinks provide any more benefit to a consumer than a cup of coffee, the Red Bull defendants persistently and pervasively market their product as a superior source of 'energy' worthy of a premium price over a cup of coffee or other sources of caffeine," the suit says. The firm has agreed to amend future marketing campaigns. Red Bull is the biggest selling energy drink in the world, with 5.4 billion cans sold in 2013. http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/weird-news/red-bull-doesnt-give-you-4414075#ixzz3FluwWyzo

2nd single, new video which is very VHS era inspired :D [video=youtube;2tKLCCNByHo]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2tKLCCNByHo I like the album, it's a bit top heavy though, the first half of it is strong imo.

The Troubles reminds me a bit of recent Stereophonics songs. Loving the album still, it's a lot more consistent than NLOTH!

Guys, the quote from the newspaper is incorrect and there are further developments expected along the way.

Such a shame but Chris is open to it in the future so i'm sure you'll be running the social page still Mike and there will be another push along the way surely :) Maybe some charity work and a few gigs are planned!

That's planned next :)

To add, there will be one point for a sign up on this year's Secret Santa ;)

Awesome! Maybe one day, you never know! Like this :lol: [video=youtube;4wcm3LM3vwY]

Perfect interview, great job! Is that part referring to the 3rd Dec non public show or just information for when it opens to the public from the 4th?

Chad Kroeger-esque :laugh3:

This is awesome, loved Chris' part during Talihina Sky :D KoL are in my top 20 bands, it's great to see Chris is such a fan :)

This month, the Coldplaying contributor contest will be decided largely by you! We have a general theme for this month, with any post of quality having a chance to earn you points. The top 20 posts for each week will score 1 point each! You can view these posts by clicking on 'top posts' on the navigation bar underneath the forum banner. There will also be a chance to earn a few extra points. The scoring system is as follows : Feature in the top 20 thumbs up for the week - 1 point each feature Introduce yourself as a new member - 1 point Welcome a new member - 1 point Upload media on the multimedia forum - 1 point Coldplay lyric pic (Challenge/game) - 1 point each song Signing up to Secret Santa 2014 - 1 point You can have multiple points for uploading media then being in the top 20 thumbs up for the week for example :) Its two prizes for the top Coldplayer this month, member of the month and a set of Ghost Stories buttons. Top 3 get an honorable shoutout :) Good luck and remember to make use of the thumbs up button when you see a great post!

It's very odd, I think its either going to be used in a Christmas 'deal' by the record company (a DVD) to boost Ghost Stories sales or its going to remain a TV special, if its the former, wouldn't expect us to hear anything LP7 related until after the new year.

I find that strange too, doesn't transition into O very well imo. Chris has talked about ASFOS like its the last track and hasn't mentioned O and its role on the album and they have not given it much attention live.
