Yeah, maybe they are holding on to it because it's crummy. This preview leaves me yawning. The band has so many poor music videos (In My Place, Clocks, GPASUYF, and so on). Why is every video just them performing? They do know videos can have other things, right? Violet Hill is full of awesome lyrical imagery that could be put to far better use than this. Unless the rest of the video is brilliant.

And people said Violet Hill is different then past material. This is completely different, and awesome. I love it. The ending is so cool. I think Violet Hill and Viva La Vida are great songs, but I definitely think Viva la Vida is more original and far more experimental.

Thank you EMI!

It's iTunes Plus. There is no DRM. The file can be listened to by anyone as is.

I have resorted to playing the 30-sec preview over and over and pressing the buy button over and over.

Err. Why does Apple insist on updating the iTunes Store this way.

The UK store shows Viva La Vida as being for sale as single track as well as with the preorder.

I don't hear any preview. What country store are you in?
