Lover's In Japan Live (dont you miss it?)
I think the setlist they had for Part II of the Viva tour was just amazing. Lovers in Japan, The Scientist and Life In Technicolor ii were the highlights of the show.

Casey Anthony
I wasn't referring to the jury. I'm talking about all of you who were watching. In america, you all seem to have forgotten that you're innocent until proven guilty. Who told you she was guilty? CNN did. Look at her now, free.

Casey Anthony
I think Casey's defense attorney did say something clever though. Something along the lines of "Today we showed the media that it cannot taint a case like this." And it's true. Wether she's guilty or not, most people are only seeing the evidence stacked against her. That's what the media does. Especially a media mogul like CNN. Interesting twitter trending topic: "It's not about what you know, it's about what you can prove in court." - Law Abiding Citizen.

Love the new songs so far but was expecting...
Yeah I'm a new fan of the structures. The entire chorus for Charlie Brown is built around Jonny's guitar riff, and the hurts like heaven chorus is nice and short.

Effect on Jonny's Guitar for IMP, CB and stuff.
There is a pretty significant difference between overdrive and distortion. The names pretty much speak for themselves. Overdrive more or less boosts a signal. Distortion does the same while making it dirtier sounding. Overdrive would be more of an AC DC sound while distortion is kind of like a Muse guitar sound. Jonny has a tube screamer which is more towards the overdrive side, but I don't think he uses it anymore. I know he used it during talk on the X&Y tour.

Should I Learn Guitar?
Learn drums. There's never enough drummers. Too many guitarists out there (myself being one of them). If you're interested in joining a band, people are always looking for drummers.

Effect on Jonny's Guitar for IMP, CB and stuff.
I'll record a few demos of Charlie brown & in my place with some reverb tomorrow. If you have a fender amp, use the drive channel with about 2.5 drive on it (use as little drive as you can), i find that's usually a good amount for Coldplays stuff. Distortion? I'm not too sure. I know Jonny doesn't have any distortion pedals in his line up. Using the drive on the amp alone is more than often enough. If you think you can't hear the parts of the song with drive in it, listen to the beginning of the chorus for in my place (the "yeaaaaahhh" part) and the bridge in Charlie Brown ("All the boys, all the girls") Again, I'll record a few short demonstrations tomorrow.

Moving to Mars Piano effect?
Sounds like a normal piano to me. Might be drifting more towards the honky-tonk piano when the song really picks up, but during the quiet part it sounds normal to me.

Effect on Jonny's Guitar for IMP, CB and stuff.
Yeah, for in my place he used to use some delay, but now he just uses a fair amount of reverb. And if you're referring to the glastonbury performance of Charlie Brown, I'm 99% sure he's using reverb and chorus. For the rock am ring Charlie Brown, I didn't hear the chorus but it's definitely there for Glasto.

Lyrics discussion (and poll)
Lyrical content is still pretty subjective... For example, if the Every Teardrop is a Waterfall lyrics were in a song like amsterdam, you guys would still think the lyrics were amazing. I think the feel of the song has a lot to do with your perception of the lyrics.

Final Conclusion on The New Singles and LP5 after Research.
And here I was thinking the new songs would at least hold people over until the album is released... shame on me

Major Minus: LISTENING PARTY! Countdown to Thursday 23rd June, 9pm (BST)

ETIAWF, MM and MTM wont be on the actual Album?
Why does everyone have to make every song into an acronym... I understand VLVODAAHF but seriously, MTM? MM? Why don't we all start using C (Clocks), T (Trouble) etc
-
LP5 to be released on July 1?!?!
http://coldplay.com/live.php Theres over a month gap after August 5th, which is their last show until September 16th. I'm with everyone who thinks it's gonna come out in August.

So does this mean Major Minus wont be on the album?!
Again, not saying I hate the song. I thought 42 was weird the first few times I listened to the album. I may warm up to it.
-
So does this mean Major Minus wont be on the album?!
I dunno, really. I just haven't liked it since I first heard it. I will give it the benefit of the doubt since I have only listened to it twice, but still haven't quite liked it. Perhaps I will when the studio version comes out, but the live version just sounded too weird. Jonny's guitar was just drowned in reverb, which kind of takes away from the acoustic guitar too. And the vocal melodies, just don't sit well with me.
-
So does this mean Major Minus wont be on the album?!
Nope. I don't like major minus.
-
The chance no new songs/only ETIAW will be on new album?
Does anyone else still think ALL the new songs will be on the album? But I'd be fine if major minus was left off, not a fan. Also, I don't think they'd go through all the trouble to keep these B-sides a secret, plus they wouldn't develop art like the walking man for hurts like heaven.

I'm still not a fan, it's a weird sounding song. I like all of the other new songs over this one. I'll probably still get it, but I really wish it was another song.
