All I have to say about this album is that it's a masterpiece. I bought it this morning and every time I stop listening to it, I want to hear it again! I realize that everyone has an opinion but it's another thing to denounce such beautiful music. Great Job guys!!

After listening to Viva La Vida numerous times I truly feel this album is a masterpiece, and not just because the music is beautifully composed, but because I've never listened to an album that gave me goosebumps, there are just so many elements to this album that express sadness and tranquility, then explode into an array of color and excitement for the listener. I appreciate that they have stayed true to their sound and agree that this is Coldplay's "The Unforgettable Fire" not only because it's also their fourth major studio album but because there is such a change in direction. I read that U2 felt "TUF" was like a sketch and when I listen to this album I can paint a picture with the sound. When I as in college I used to take long road trips home and to see my girlfriend many hours away. I would always play Coldplay and just transport into another world. I would drive into a storm listening to Daylight or Politik, play High Speed and Low driving on lonely highways at midnight, and blast Speed of Sound, Talk, and Square One when I was getting close to home and I could see the lights of the Chicago Skyline. So whenever I hear these songs I'm aken to another place and time. Hopefully I can have these memories with Viva La Vida. Maybe I'm looking into the music too much but that's just what music does to me. What do you think? BTW, Viva La Vida is a great song but Cemeteries and 42 are classics! : )
