During my 3rd listen, I shed a tear during up with the birds. Not sure what it was that triggered it. Probably some repressed memory or something #notcrazy ;P

Same here! Last one on the shelf!

Just got back home from giving in to myself and buying my 4th copy of Mylo Xyloto :D I bought it on iTunes, preordered the limited edition, got the download from the preorder and this physical copy is my 4th. The t-shirt looks awesome!

Ufff!! I need this!! But I've spent so much money on Coldplay... the iTunes version, the Limited edition... hmm... well, I do need a physical copy for my car... Ahhhh, I'm such a sucker, I'm totally gonna buy this (once I find 20 bucks to spare).

You can check your local stores. Chances are they have them already. A lot of people got a copy a few days early just by asking a clerk a if they had it in stock.

Thanks! Just wanted to know since this digital copy is actually gonna be a gift for someone (I already bought my own copy) and I didn't want to give a crap quality album :D

Oh boy, I feel like I started an argument :/ I didn't mean to sound like an ass, OP. As Connor!42! said, I was just trying to fill you in.

Still haven't gotten anything. What's in the "sent by" field of the email Is it just "MerchDirect"? Also, to the people who got their download already, what's the bitrate of the songs?

The squeal that came from my mouth once the album start downloading had to be the most terrifying thing for anyone else in the house to hear :P

The iTunes version only has the silver cover. You can get the other one from Coldplay.com in the recording's section. Same size as iTunes covers (600x600)

Looks like these lyrics are mostly correct. There are still some mistakes but that's probably due to translation issues I think. This is the most official we are gonna get until the recordings section is updated but I suspect only a few lines to be different. For example, DLIBYH has a very obvious mistake. One line is repeated.

I have the official instrumental of Paradise from the Promo CD. I'd be happy to share. Just PM me and I'll give you the link.

There's already a lyrics thread which has already deciphered the lyrics thanks to someone who got a lyric book in the japanese version of the album. A few of these lines here are wrong :/

Hurts Like Heaven. "On ever street, every car, every surface an aim. Tonight the streets are ours and were writing and saying..." I always thought it was "every surface are/our names" but one of the keyboards on stage has the lyric and it says "an aim".

I wrote a review of it just a couple hours ago. I'm not very musically inclined so it's more of a track by track overview and my final thoughts/personal experience with the album. Hope you guys enjoy it still :D http://periahdark.tumblr.com/post/11821070110/luminous-and-wired-mylo-xyloto-reviewed

Ahh, right. Finger slipped and I hit the 5 instead of the 4. My bad.

If you pre-ordered it on iTunes, you'll get it at 11 PM tonight. Sure, it's just one hour before the 25th, but it's better than nothing.

Reading this is making me cave and wanting to go out and get a physical copy. I bought it on iTunes and the limited edition. I know the limited edition brings a physical copy (which I need for my car. No aux jack :() but I don't want to wait till December to get it. Looks like I'm spending more monies now haha.

"Tonight the streets are ours" is a lyrics from Hurts Like Heaven, but I can totally see the possibility of Coldplay drawing inspiration from Banksy. Good catch!

Sometimes even printed booklet lyrics are wrong. I've seen it happen before. We will have to wait till Coldplay post the official lyrics on the recordings section of the site.

Looks like it dropped back down to number 2. Let's see if we can get it back up during the week of release.

Hey there! Welcome! I'm from Florida too. Miami (Hialeah to be exact). I've been a fan for a while but I've never been to a concert. I'm hoping to finally go when this tour starts.

"streets are ours" makes so much more sense to me than Streets arise. I used to think it was streets arise but now I'm gonna go with streets are ours.

:laugh3:

Why thank you! :) I just did what I normally do, wing in... er.. no pun intended. I actually had just finished randomly spray painting my idea notebook before I made this so I was in a artsy mood :P This album sure has sparked inspiration in me.
