Done!

BBC Political broadcasters Jeremy Vine and Jon Sopel just tweeted these...

It's really good, a lot like the original. I think I'd like it more if Bigfoot wasn't so scary looking though!

No problem! Enjoy the programme!

It's now available in the official shop http://coldplay.fanfire.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/Store.woa/wa/product?sourceCode=COLWEBUKWGBP&sku=COL53532

That's a good point. What's the likelihood that the CB video will feature a crowd with the glowbands? They might have chosen the song for the first glowbands video for a reason. :wink3:

Wow what an amazing moment when the glowbands come on at the start of MX! Brilliant little video. Also, notice how they've spelt the album name wrong (Mylo Xylo) on the lyrics book!

The venue looks fantastic, like the way the stadium goes all the way around the back of the stage as well (unlike the 02 arena). Think the 360 stage is a good idea, and at least it's still at one end rather than U2 who had it dead in the middle.

Nice t-shirt, thanks for the photo's. Really like the way the tour dates are written on the back. Don't think it needs the big Coldplay Mylo Xyloto writing on the front but I'll still get one!

Anyone buy a t-shirt or get a picture of the merchandise stands? £30 seems a bit steep but was wondering what the designs were, if they had any new ones, or if the tour dates were on the back.

How can so many people be on their camera's when they're near the front row and Charlie Brown is on?! Love the wristbands though! Hope they do them at Emirates...

Emile Sande in the big picture at the back!

Like a lot of other people, if they do Charlie Brown I'll be happy; It's a quality song and needs to be heard by the masses. But if they do Paradise or ETIAW I won't be.

It certainly seems that none of the contestants would match Coldplay well. Just found this...This is what the UK X Factor is missing! [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rZKgzQnfYjc]ROCHELLE - Clocks [ Coldplay ] { de meest constante factor in X-factor 2011 - YouTube[/ame]

Fed up of seeing Coldplay being criticised by NME. Let's all give MX 10 stars! (and all the rest 1!) http://www.nme.com/ratemy/251892/albums-of-the-year-2011#76

The CB one looks legit to be honest. Expect an announcement soon I think... :P

The singing isn't great but I love the guitars, reminds me a bit of a Travis song some of it. Wish the instrumentals in the real one was more like this!

Round 1: Don't Panic / Politik / Square One / Life In Technicolor / Hurts Like Heaven Round 2: Shiver / In My Place / What If / Cemeteries of London / Paradise Round 3: Spies / God Put A Smile Upon Your Face / White Shadows / Lost! / Charlie Brown Round 4: Sparks / The Scientist / Fix You / 42 / Us Against The World Round 5: Yellow / Clocks / Talk / Lovers In Japan / M.M.I.X. + Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall Round 6: Trouble / Daylight / X&Y / Yes / Major Minus Round 7: Parachutes / Green Eyes / Speed of Sound / Viva la Vida / U.F.O. Round 8: High Speed / Warning Sign / A Message / Violet Hill / Princess of China Round 9: We Never Change / A Whisper / Low / Strawberry Swing / Up In Flames Round 10: Everything's Not Lost / A Rush of Blood To The Head / The Hardest Part / Death And All His Friends / A Hopeful Transmission + Don't Let It Break Your Heart Round 11: Life Is For Living / Amsterdam / Swallowed In The Sea / Reign of Love / Up With The Birds Round 12: (See You Soon) / (I Ran Away) / Twisted Logic / Chinese Sleep Chant / (Moving to Mars) Round 13: (Such a Rush) / (Crests of Waves) / Til Kingdom Come / The Escapist / Mylo Xyloto So hard to separate some of them. Especially round 3 and round 6. Overall then; Parachutes 6, AROBTTH 9, X&Y 2, VLV 2, MX 2

AROBTTH wins them all for me. Guess that puts MX in its place! Really hard to separate God Put and Charlie Brown though! And Daylight or Major Minus was a close one.

This is getting big! Great stuff :D

I'd answer MX to all of the apart from artwork. I think the music is better, actually more coldplayish. Prefer CB (which still should be the big single) to VLV. The clothing is usually better for MX, altho I don't like the over colourful stuff that Chris sometimes wears. I was never a big fan of the VLV clothing, especially the brighter coloured jackets! Darker ones looked OK as a big of a change. Concerts are definitely better in MX era. All coldplay concerts are incredible but the MX songs are better live than the VLV ones generally. MM, CB, HLH all incredible live. Think there are more lasers this time which are good, less confetti as well. Plus GPASUYF is amazing at the moment! But the VLV artwork is better. MX artwork is a bit messy, altho I like the grey MX cover. The VLV painting was such an iconic choice for the cover and the single covers were a bit more interesting than walls of graffiti every time.

I guess like Wembley in 09 they'll go for a mix of pop and alternative rock. Rihanna possibly, would be very similar to Jay Z. As for the more rock stuff, bands like Snow Patrol (doubtful), Keane, Athlete, Editors, Feeder, Franz Ferdinand etc. would love any of these. Or a curveball. How about David Gray? Travis comeback? R.E.M. reunion?! (got a bit excited there..)

I think you're referring to the addition which Chris makes to Life is for Living. As far as I know it's not another song, but just extra lyrics which were never included on the studio version.

Just got 4 tickets! The site was crashing due to traffic at 9am but obviously it wasn't enough to sell out straight away, although I've just seen the general admission priority tickets have sold out. £223 is a lot to come out of a student's back account!! Now I've just got to pray that an exam doesn't get scheduled for that day...

Absolutely brilliant! Why the hell don't these guys make the music videos! Infinitely better than the ETIAW and Paradise ones.
