Get your glowsticks out! Cheesy but I like it :sneaky: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y3wQZEU_9-Q]Coldplay - Charlie Brown (Dave Audé Remix) - YouTube[/ame]

I dont think its neccessarily getting an ep/single release with a b-side etc., its just being classed as the 3rd single. A lot of artists are going down that route now. Its on Radio 1's playlist, its 24 on the iTunes chart..I agree some kind of release would be nice with a b-side would be nice but doubtful at this point.

I wouldn't be surprised, its a huge show. Florence & The Machine were on a few weeks ago.

It was a TV advertisement in the UK :)

Just saw a new advert for Mylo Xyloto with Paradise, Every Teardrop...and then it said "and Charlie Brown" and it played a small clip. Does this mean its the new single?? :wink3:

Quite rare for an album track to chart that highly without any promo or official release..no doubt the combo of Coldplay & Rihanna alone is enough for people to download!!

Well its #20 on the iTunes chart already so it doesnt really matter when the official release date as a single is..its out there now & will no doubt stay in the charts for the next few months

I loved the majority of the first 2 albums and they had some amazing songs, but they also had a fair bit of filler too, especially Parachutes! X&Y is a more solid album, but the songs in general probably aren't as good (bar Fix You). Viva is the most interesting & experimental but my least favourite. It's hard to judge Mylo so far as its so new, but so far I'd definately say its a better album than Viva. I think it's a great album, a little overproduced and too polished in places, it'll be interesting to see how it stands the test of time.

Live version..with the Glastonbury one being the best :D

Yes, Im also disapointed and it's probably my own fault for listening to the live version so much. Heres what I thought sounded better live... The guitar at the beginning. Its really quiet on the studio version! The way he sings some of the lines especially "I stole a key" His vocals in general, I prefered them on the live version Saying that, its still a great song, and probably my favourite on the album

Guys, there is no difference between the leaked & Japanese iTunes, except its slightly better quality

On the forum where I got the leak, the uploader had actually posted this pic of the CD case and actual CD (which does not look like a promo copy but the real thing)...this is whats making me think it might be the final version... :thinking:

That would be awesome!! :D

Most BBC shows are repeated on the Radio 1 website to stream afterwards if anyone's interested to listen & judge for themselves

Oh hell yeah!! Charlie Brown on the radio is sooo much better. Its definately different & better quality..I noticed a couple of different/new things in the production too

I agree. This is why I try not to listen to live versions before the studio versions because Im usually let down, but with this album I couldn't resist. Hurts Like Heaven is particularly a big let down. Even MX sounded better live!

I actually love this!! Its much better than MX, and sounds a little Sigur-Rosy to me :D

I'd love to believe that. The quality of Charlie Brown at the beginning is not great, and I'm not a huge fan of the production on some of the songs but I fear this actually is the real deal!!

I have absolutely NO idea whats anyone is talking about in this thread... :stunned::D

"Effective 16/10 links not permitted" So does that mean its out there? :\

I just listened to the Letterman performance of Charlie Brown and wasn't that taken with it, it sounds slower, and a little lifeless compared to all the other live versions played at festivals. I really hope I am not going to be disapointed by the studio version of this song :\

So will it be the same track streamed on iTunes which is being streamed on radio, or 2 different ones?

Its not true at all, previews always appear before the albums available, I'm guessing about a week before, possibly two but I don't know for sure! I keep checking! :cool:

I noticed iTunes and Amazon don't have any previews of the Mylo Xyloto tracks..does anyone know roughly how long before an albums release previews/clips appear, or has anyone found any clips on another site? :cool:

I hope you're right but I wouldn't rely on someone in Japan leaking the album personally.
