they've all been put on youtube and there looming around somewhere in the Rock AM thread in the live section. Yeah they're good, one that stood out for me would be Charlie Brown but this is my opinion and of course others will be sceptical about the new tracks. The duet between Will and Chris is lovely too :)

look what i came across today on my adventures around the town. Reminded me of the possible theme/title for LP5 straight away :D

OXEGEN!!!!! :D:D:D can't wait!!!!!

did anyone else's mouth hit the floor when they played life is for living? couldn't believe it! really liked Charlie Brown out of the new songs and the new version of GPASUYF was awesome! Really can't wait for Oxegen next month! Coldplay were amazing (as usual)

i've emailed gloaming and told him that whoever has made my mixtape i need them to put it in it's normal format cos i can't open it or listen to it if it's in a rar or zip file, sorry about the inconvenience but if they can put it in it's original format i'd much appreciate it. Unless someone knows how to listen to a rar file on a mac? EDIT: Never Mind just sorted it :D

can someone post the link(s) again? i really wanna see this :D

when i made my tape i changed the the name of the artist and track and just deleted the album info on iTunes and cleared the rest of the details, it worked for me except for one track. hope this helps

great i'll be drunk at that point but i'll be home hopefully sober enough to one watch it (instead of staring at the screen even if it's off and think i'm watching something). Two, be able to enjoy it and three know when they're singing a new song :D

what time is their gig tomorrow? in british/irish time?

maybe silver confetti instead of butterflies?

i really like the song, i gave it 8/10. I enjoy the upbeat of the song and it reminds me of strawberry swing at points. I think I have my summer song or if not I have my song that'll remind me of the damn exams i'm about to sit! I think it's a positive song and for one of them reasons alone i think makes it a great coldplay song. I love the last minute of it, it just puts a massive grin on my face and makes me feel all fuzzy inside lol. I heard it in the shop today and started wriggling my bum to it while waiting for my roll to be made and got a few funny looks but i didn't care, it just brings an overwhelming feeling of happiness to me that i love. Can't wait to hear it live and can't wait even more for LP5. Well done Coldplay you took a brave risk and I think it's paid off

HERE WE GO!!!!! :D:D:D:D

me too! also loving your mini canuck tribute in your signature! Go Canucks Go! :D

radio one are doing a 'coldplay story' and the new track? i think my studying can wait an hour i think haha

I'm just not a big fan of the song, I like the guitar to it but it doesn't interest me that much to be honest although I enjoyed singing along to it when it was played live but each to their own I guess.

let me know what you think of it when you listen to it Thanks :blush: lol it's good to be here :)

:dozey: I feel like such a fool ha, but José does do a cover of the song on his 2nd album which is how I was getting mixed up……

I know, I had a feeling that I was going to be making the tape for you ha so think of it as a way of me saying thanks :) I'm more than happy to tell people about the good Irish bands like Ham Sandwich, the link is them performing [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmwWSWdP1mo&feature=channel_video_title]Ants Live In Cork[/ame] which I recorded and they're such down to earth people like after the gig they just sat at the bar talking to everyone and anyone. About Linkin Park, I think you should check out Minutes To Midnight yeah but don't bother with the other album then. I have that Dark Is The Night album and I was tempted to put on Hey Snow White by The New Pornographers but I forgot about it in the end. Well when it comes to Snow Patrol all I can say is that you must listen to them. To be honest they've had more influence on me than anyone or thing else. When you listen to Final Straw the main tracks for me our How To Be Dead, Chocolate and the track that got them the recognition of the great band they are Run. Well i'm glad to have signed up for the exchange and i'll be definitely be doing it again. My name is Jack :)

Well Ms. Specific ha, I know i've heard at least 4 different versions and the two main ones being by José and the other by Massive Attack (which is also the theme song for House). They're all good cos they seem to all have the right tempo to it or the way they do it it just works. I don't know about the other 2 versions i've heard but I've heard a few covers of it

i dunno, he looks argentinian lol and you know what i meant by his song mr specific man. haha Plus there's so many covers of this song that the original is probably lost deep within the history of music ha

I don't like Yes, to be honest it's hard to understand what Chris is singing. I do like though Chinese Sleeper Chant hidden in Yes and maybe that's what makes Yes so popular with people maybe thinking it's all the one song. I think that the biggest mistake of the Viva era was not having Glass Of Water on Viva La Vida, especially with the songs like Yes and Cemeteries Of London on the album

i made your mixtape! :D i'm glad you liked it i came up with the name to try and set a theme of when you like someone you don't know to well so you create a lie to see them the way you want to or hope to see them and these were the kind of songs that i thought could suit this situation quite well, it had no connection to a lyric from another song or anything just something I made up. With it also being my 1st mixtape i wanted to chuck in my favourite songs too :) This is from an Irish small band called The Ambience Affair and the song's called Devil In The Detail. They've only got 2 EP's out so that would explain the the unbalanced recording cos it would've been made on a budget. I was reading this last night laughing to myself thinking IT IS KELE!!! lol it's from his band Bloc Party and the song is called This Modern Love. I dunno if you watch How I Met Your Mother but in the last episode of the 1st series this song is playing towards the end and that's where i heard it, so maybe if you watch the show that's why it's familiar? This song I like quite a bit. It's from a British indie band called Foals and the song is This Orient. I love the line in the chorus 'It's your heart that gives me this Western Feeling' and i think the music compliments it well. This is from a popular Irish band called Fight Like Apes and the song is quite predictably called Jenny Kelly. If you like the song you might like their other stuff, they can be quite funny and sometimes in your face with their lyrics. A fun, upbeat band that are gaining popularity in England now. I love Interpol, one of my favourite discoveries of the last 12 months by far. I love the guitar solo it sends me into a trance and can make me feel quite happy which is strange really considering what Paul sings about in general, e.g. 'You're so cute when you're frustrated.' Another Irish band. BL_CK R_B_TS (Black Robots). There good but sadly have split up due to legal issues with some other band called Black Robot in America. I can see what you mean cos at times the singer almost sounds like his voice is being covered? Their album is free to download it's called Farewell To The Black Robots. I didn't forget but for some reason even though I did delete it's info of iTunes completely it just wouldn't go blank, quite annoying :/ I really like them especially this song, i recommend Dust On The Ground, Magnet, Always Like This and The Hill. I can't get enough of The Vaccines at the moment and can't wait to see them in the summer, glad to see you enjoy them as much as i do :) Yet another Irish band and my 3rd favourite band too. They're called Ham Sandwich and they're really really good. This song is called The Fog, it's not my favourite track from the album White Fox but i thought it'd be good for this mixtape and I always want to introduce people to them because to be honest they deserve as much publicity as possible. Listen to Ants, St. Christopher, The Naturist and White Fox. I felt the same way too. I bought Minutes To Midnight with great expectations but they've just pissed me off with all the other stuff they do instead of concentrating on themselves. This is my favourite track from that album but I barely listen to them anymore and haven't heard any of their new stuff either. The song is called In Pieces. This is José González I think he's from Argentina (someone correct me if i'm wrong). You might recognise his song Heartbeats, the video is of like a million bouncy balls going down a hill in LA by the looks of it. The album is called Veneer and it's a really nice album. The song is called Save Your Day This is my favourite song. People say this about a load of songs but when i say it i mean it. I've only ever skipped it once according to iTunes and i remember that it was an accident (damn iTouch!) but seriously this song is the only one i can listen to in any mood possible. It's like Gary Lightbody (the lead singer/main writer) wrote it just for me. I can go on for months which i have done and actually been doing recently just listening to this song. I'm surprised you don't know this band considering they're connection with Grey's Anatomy with the song Chasing Cars. Anyway they are Snow Patrol and this special song is Open Your Eyes. I love your response to it :) the album it's from is Eyes Open which is also my favourite album. This was Nick drake singing Black Eyed Dog. The nerves you thought he had was his style of singing. His album A Treasury has all his best songs on it. I did think it'd be a good way to end the mixtape especially after an intense song like Open Your Eyes. I'm really glad you enjoyed it, I was a bit nervous with it being my first mixtape how the person would react to it so i'm happy it's gone down well. I can see what you mean about the 2nd half being better because I struggled with trying to put it together as i had to take songs out cos they didn't work when i unzipped the file to see if it worked so i was disappointed about that. Track List 1. Devil In The Detail - The Ambience Affair 2. Modern Love - Bloc Party 3. This Orient - Foals 4. Jenny Kelly - Fight Like Apes 5. PDA - Interpol 6. Times Changing - BL_CK R_B_TS (Black Robots) 7. What If - Bombay Bicycle Club 8. If You Wanna - The Vaccines 9. The Fog - Ham Sandwich 10. In Pieces - Linkin Park 11.

Bloody hell last night was intense, glad to see raffi score too, one down 3 more to go! GO CANUCKS GO!

Still waiting for mine! The anticipation is killing me (although I think the waiting for the coldplay song is involved in it too haha)

just read the song in full for the first time and i really like it, i hope the music matches it's quality and people need to remember the old saying, don't judge a book by it's cover, we have no idea what the song is going to be like. Bring on Friday cos i can't wait to hear it!
