X&Y - lets squash the myth
Hey C0ldplay420, like you, I first fell in love with Coldplay's music through the album X & Y with the song Fix You. From there, I bought the X & Y album and enjoyed it thoroughly and couldn't stop playing it. After that, I bought the albums backwards (AROBTTH, followed by Parachutes) and the songs just kept getting better and better. I don't think people are trying to say that X & Y is not a good album. It's fantastic. But compared to the other works that Coldplay has done previously, there were other albums that were better than it. (: Don't get me wrong, I love X & Y to death and I owe it to my love for this fantastic band, but Parachutes and AROBTTH are very different and less mainstream compared to X & Y, more personal. This may be why other coldplayers love it much more than X & Y? haha... All, in all, i think it's a matter of your own opinion in the end. An analogy... Some people who like rock music won't like folk music and some people who like folk music won't like rock music. It's a personal opinion. (:

HELP! Can you help me make a playlist worth playing with coldplay songs?
Definitely include Sigur Ros in your playlist, their song 'Hoppipola' and most of the songs from the () album. Also, try out the Arcade Fire's Funeral Album. Very good stuff. Radiohead... definitely have 'Paranoid Android', 'Fade Out', and 'Fake Plastic Trees'. Have you tried listening to some Beatles?

Interview from back in May 2008
I'm not very sure, but I don't believe I've seen this here before.. SOURCE: http://cdbaby.org/stories/08/05/27/0879820.html ColdPlay Interview at The Marriot Hotel London. Interview by Just Joe On the 23rd May 2008 at 1:30pm London time, Just Joe (aka Joe Wheeler) went to interview Cold Play about their new album Viva La Vida. The interview went really well and the band felt really happy and excited to be interviewed by HAI Magazine. Just Joe I played your new album last night and was amazed at how different it was to your previous albums. I really enjoyed the listen. Chris & Johnny Thank you Just Joe This is the first time your band have had Brian Eno as a producer. What Influence did he bring to this album? There is a very Eno feel to the tracks. Chris Eno was a great guy to work with. He is the kind of guy who don’t give a sh*t about how many Grammy awards someone has, he would still work with them. While working with us, he would work at all hours trying out different things using different and crazy machines. He would sit and play and we would say ‘damn what the hell is that?’ it would sound awful but when he took it to the studio it would then sound totally amazing! Brian does get bored pretty quickly though, he was never around when the band had to setup the instruments because it took too much time, Brian would show up as soon as the band were all setup. Just Joe Why did you or I should say, why did the band choose ‘Violet Hill’ as the first single? And what made you want to give it away as a free download? Johnny To be honest none of us are quite sure why Violet Hill is the first single taken from the album. I guess it was because it was the one that sounded most different. The band sat down and spent a long time deciding and chose that specific one. In this period you can feel like a whore, forever selling ourselves so we decided to give it away for free. We have to remember though that we are signed to a label and that we just can not give everything away for free as much as we would like to now. Just Joe Yes many bands and musicians have decided to give some of there music away for free. Just Joe This new sound of Coldplay, will you keep elements of the sound for your next album? Chris Well we are left with many unfinished ideas, it is really too early to say. I believe we will look at changing our sound again maybe. Just Joe I heard that you have a new headquarters and studio, called ‘The Bakery’?. Can you tell me more about it? And why did you call it ‘The Bakery’? Johnny Yes the Bakery is our new studio, well it is more like a cottage, it’s a place we are free to try out new ideas, paint, make clothes and so on. It’s a place that holds no ego’s. The place is under Brian Eno’s influence. It used to be a Bakery and then changed to an art gallery. We thought naming it ‘Art Gallery’ would sound sh*t so we chose ‘The Bakery’ which is a place we can go to create expression. Just Joe When are you going to play in Indonesia? You have a really huge fanbase here? Chris I am not aware of when we are doing gigs because the album was only finished 3 weeks ago. I don’t really know what has been confirmed or not. Although I do know we have shows in USA next month. Me and the band would love to come to Indonesia and I am sure it will happen. We love to travel to new places. Just Joe Last year you made an announcement on your website that two songs, Famous Old Painters and Glass of Water had been written and were being considered for this album. What happened to those songs? Chris Glass of Water and Famous Old Painters are still around, but not dead. We will work on some more songs and see if these two fit in with them. Just Joe Many of the big bands out there now like to make big statements and do different things. Would your band ever make big statements or make any radical changes? Johnny Well we are signed to EMI, We have to do everything the classic way. We record and send the master to EMI and get it released on cd and digital download. I would say what we did with Violet Hill was a big statement. We have tried our best to adapt with the way the music scene keeps changing. We made our album a 45 minute piece with different moods, it is more of a soundtrack then an album. I believe that cd’s have too much time on them to use up so this is why I am a big fan of the download market as we can create a recording that is around the 45 minute mark without worrying about leaving out loads of space on a cd. Just Joe So you like to try out new things? I can see this by the sound of your album. Johnny Yes this album was a statement, we boxed ourselves in and really need to get ourselves out of this state. The new album took lots of stamina, while we were on the South American tour we felt a long way off from our perfect sound. We felt like we were short changing people so decided to have a think and change our sound so it was totally different from our previous albums. Just Joe Did you enjoy the making of the music video for Violet Hill? Chris Yes, we all enjoyed the making of the video’s. There was actually two video’s made. One was filmed around Mount Etna in Scilly. We were all running around like mad lunatics having fun in this video, a bit like the way the beatles had fun in their very first video. The second video which is the one we decided to use was made by one of our friends. You see President Bush does so much dancing we just could not avoid using him in the video. Just Joe Which track describes the main idea of the album? Johnny I would have to say, the track that most describes the main idea of the album would be ‘42’. Just Joe When the band rehearses, is there a lot of playing around? Johnny Well messing about was not on, we just played and recorded together. Although at times we got stuck so took breaks. Or Brian would get bored too quickly. Just Joe Why didn’t you put Frida Kahlo’s Viva la Vida painting on your album cover instead of Eugene Delacroix’s? Johnny Well we wanted an album cover that was revolutionary and banging! Like in a palace wrecking everything. This is why we never used Frida’s painting as we did not want to ruin it. Just Joe On Coldplay’s website, you also described taking an accoustic guitar and some recording equipment to churches. What were you guys doing there with those instruments? Johnny Well we actually went to a Nunnery in Barcelona as we thought it would be interesting to sing and chant. We wanted it to sound big so a church fitted perfect for this. We wanted to be like the movie Sister Act!! I guess we were influenced to do this by Barber Shop. Just Joe Well thank you very much for speaking to us at HAI Magazine, we like your new sound very much and we wish you all the best. As the interview ended, I left the room and had a think. I played the album again and the message in the music hit me. It is an album that is lively and upbeat but, almost revolutionary and banging as it is a sound that describes death in the most liveliest of ways. It is almost like the band are saying that once you are dead it is not the end. Vida La Viva is a very big change in the bands sound.

Discarded songs titles' ?
I already said those that I bolded and italicised were those that i'm not sure were previous B-sides from previous albums??? i wrote that just under the whole list of titles? Haha. Yea, my B-side knowledge isnt that great =P sorry if I confused anyone EDIT: Oh... hahaha. I see. The italicised ones don't look italicised. Really sorry.
-
Discarded songs titles' ?
Just in case people are confused, like i was haha, here's the list of songs... The bolded ones are the unreleased cuts for Viva la Vida. - 1.36 - 2000 miles - 42 - A Ghost - A Message - Amsterdam - Animals - A Rush Of Blood To The Head - A Spell A Rebel Yell - A Whisper - Bigger Stronger - Brothers & Sisters - Bucket For A Crown - Careful Where you Stand - Cemeteries Of London - Chinese Sleep Chant - Clocks - Crest Of Waves - Daylight - Death & All His Friends - Don't Panic - Easy To Please - Everything's Not Lost - Famous Old Painters - Fix You - For You - Glass Of Water - God Put A Smile Upon Your Face - Gold In Them Hills - Gravity - Green Eyes - Harmless - Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas - Help Is Round The Corner - High Speed - How you see the World (Version 1 & 2) - Hunting High and Low - Idiot - If All Else - I Bloom Blaum - In My Place - I Ran Away - I Shall Be released - Ladder to the Sun - LeftRightLeftRightLeft - Life In Technicolour - Life is For Living - Lips Like Sugar - Live Forever - Lost! - Lost Highway -Lovers In Japan - Low - Lukas - Marianne - Mining On the Moon - Moses - Murder - No more keeping my feet on the ground - Now my feet won't touch the ground - Ode To Deoderant - One I love - Only Supersition - Panic - Parachutes - Politik - Poppy Fields - Postcards from Far Away - Pour Me - Proof - Prospekts March - Rainy Day - Reign Of Love - See You Soon - Shiver - Sleeping Sun - Solid Ground - Song for the Escapist - So Sad - Sparks - Speed Of Sound - Spies - Square One - Strawberry Swing - Such A Rush - Swallowed In the Sea - Talk - Thins I don't Understand - 'Til Kingdom Come - The Fall Of Man - The Goldrush - The Hardest Part - The Scientist - The World Turned Upside Down - Trouble - Twisted Logic - Violet Hill - Vitamins - Viva La Vida - We Never Change - What If - What's Going On? - What The World Needs Now - Where Is My Boy - White Shadows - X & Y - Yellow - Yes! - You Only Live Twice - Your Love means everything -- Those that I italicised in bold are those that I'm not very sure of if they have already appeared as B-sides for the previous albums. There are a few more songs from the Viva cut not included in the list: - School - The Butterfly --- What we know: Songs that have been heard, but not released: - Bucket For A Crown - Mining On The Moon These two songs were found back in 2006 ( I think). Bucket For A Crown was played in a small crowd and recorded.. I believe someone has the Mp3 file of it uploaded not too long ago. It was written and composed with David, the violnist from Goldfrapp and their Viva La Vida album. Mining On the moon was discarded because it sounded too much like an already existing song. It was once played in some talk show ( I think)... I've been trying to look for it for ages! Haha. - Postcards from Far Away Recently, we found a piano score on the Coldplay webiste's widget section containing the riff to this song. It's not complete, and no lyrics yet though. -- Songs Related to those we've heard: - School - Rainy Day Both songs were infused into the song Death And All His Friends. The lyrics of the beginning was adapted from School, and the piano riff from Rainy Day. It's been stated that the song 'If Death Will Ever Conquer Me' sung by Will Champion may be The Goldrush. It's not confirmed though. Could be an entirely different song. But it's rumoured that Coldplay may release this song (The Goldrush) to every ticket purchaser in a Mp3 format.

More to come with Live Shows?
Definitely. There are supposed to be some acrobatics, if I am not wrong, by the band... something to do with trampolines. (It was in an article someplace.. I can't exactly remember where) I believe Chris also said something along the lines that the first few shows were free, which meant that not the full production would be shown. They would be using the full production for the actual tour.
