Wow I'm surprised, it's actually really well done haha. Like everyone else I was expecting just a basic jokey song but it's really good!

1. Always In My Head - Tough one though as I do really love MX/HLH 2. Magic - so easy, Paradise got boring fast, lyrics mean nothing, yeah Magic's lyrics are simple but at least they have meaning. 3. Ink - I really like this song despite not liking it first listen. My problem with CB is the same with Paradise, it just does nothing for me, I do like the piano outro however. 4. Us Against the World - Most of the comments I've seen are picking True Love over this, like, really!? 5. Midnight - I was a bit torn on this one but I think I've made the right decision, I really did appreciate what they were going for with this one. 6. Another's Arms - Like most of the tracks on MX, Major Minus just didn't do anything for me. I really do like AA, very hypnotic. 7.Oceans - UiF is possibly one of the most boring tracks I've ever heard. Oceans is beautiful. 8. AHT/Don't Let it Break Your Heart - As much as I do think ASFoS is catchy and nice, it's just very un-inspiring and I much prefer DLiBYH. 9.O - By far, UWtB would have been an absolute astounding track if it weren't for the annoying bird sounds and if it didn't close the album with the words "Oh yeah". GS - 7 MX - 2 Well there we have it. Shame we can't fit in U.F.O cause I do really like that song and it might have gained MX an extra point.

can any pro's decipher the chords for this song? I really can't wait to jam this out on my guitar!.

I actually really like the album and I love the sound they've created but this song has actually made me angry at the album for sounding the way it does when it could have sounded like this haha

Easily the best song from this album. Holy shit it's so amazing! I'm so thankful that they made this but also a little bitter that the rest of the album didn't sound like this. I'm actually in shock over this song, it's absolutely perfect. EVERYBODY GO LISTEN TO IT NOW.

I'm hoping it leaks soon, we already know a lot of "elite people" as you lot are calling them have the album, only a matter of time til' its nicked off their desk and stuck on the pirate bay. Just as a disclaimer; I have pre-ordered it on both CD and Vinyl, so I'm not "stealing" the album. I just really want to hear it early! 2 weeks is too long to wait!

I'll tell you now it certainly isn't my cup of tea, I'd never actively seek this song out if I weren't a Coldplay fan. However I realise it is a fun little ditty in a somewhat heartbreaking album. The great part is all you fuckers with your over reactions. I shared all your scepticism when ETIAW dropped back in 2011 because it was the only song we had to go on for MX at that time and it didn't give me hope for what was to come and sure enough I wasn't and I'm still not a huge fan of MX (Don't touch Us Against the World though.) but now we've heard most of Ghost Stories and all we've heard (IMO) is fantastic and as a classic Coldplay fan it's all I can ask for. Then this song drops and you all lose your shit. Yeah it's not paticularly ground breaking but I'm sure it'll work great within the context of the rest of the album and if you feel it doesn't then skip it to 'O' cause holy shit that song is gorgeous. Patience my children.

As soon as it started, I fell in love; Chris' voice is absolutely stunning in it and I love the lyrics. I'm really loving the new sound, how stripped back and simple it is. It really is a breath of fresh air after MX, which I wasn't a huge fan of.

10 isn't enough! So here's my top 15 :)

Here's mine :)

Seriously I love it. Sounds like it's right out of X&Y which is fantastic. I honestly think if I'd never heard X&Y before and this song was in the place of Twisted Logic (Not a fan, definitely their weakest closer, also I think Atlas would work well as a closer, sort of like Amsterdam) I think it would work perfectly. If this is on the same lines as what LP6 will sound like, then I am going to be very pleased with it. MX was good but I'm over it and I need classic Coldplay back :D

are there any lithographs left?

Other than that, the video looks like its gonna be bad ass! Chris Martin as a fucking ninja? What could be better?

I was happy to see Rhianna and Chris be so close, cause when I went to see The Avengers a few days ago I got really angry when Gwyneth kissed Robert Downy Jr. So I'm thinking fair play to Chris, get your own back! :veryangry2:

So Gotye release one song that features Kimbra and it gets overplayed in the public, therefore both of them get on the list of the greatest artists known to man at this current point in time. What a load of bollocks.

I just got my first tattoo yesterday and it is Coldplay related! I'll try and post a pic when I can, but I don't have a camera :( But basically its 'everything's not lost' on my upper left arm. I love it! :D

I like it; because Coldplay and Childish Gambino are two of my favourite artists. And Super Bass brings back good memories of my holiday to Magaluf last year ;)

Up in Flames, Up in Flames, Up in Flames. Its so awful live, and its completely unnecessary as an MX song, especially since they havn't played DLIBYH yet (srsly wtf!?) And as for In My Place, GPAS and Lost! I think they are all great songs and they should be kept in the setlist, but the order should be mixed around a little. Hearing the same songs in the same order everytime gets a little boring :(

Lovers in Japan, Strawberry Swing and Amsterdam

Calling the picture-editing-savvy people! I really love the song and the video and I really want a strawberry swing styled wallpaper for my desktop, I looked around on the internet and there's no decent sized pictures to use as a wallpaper. So I'm asking anyone who is decent with photo editing/creating to make one for me or link to one that already exists (and anyone else here who would like one of course) Just the cover for the single in wallpaper form would be fine, but by all means get creative if you wish. Thank you all so much for your time!

Yeah good question Ronnie, I hope she gets back to you soon!

Its been mentioned many times that its the start of the MX tour, on the news when the tickets were first announced. and I wouldnt worry, cause the ticket I have from the viva tour dosent say that on it, it just says Coldplay, the both of them are pretty identical actually.

Yeah I paid a lot of money for tickets to see them in December and to see the set list that I've watched a good 30+ times since June I would be HIGHLY disappointed. Although, I highly doubt they will, cause it is the official start to the MX tour, so they have to change it, to put more MX songs in it.

Everyone seems to be using the summer set list as a template, but I've just made a completely new one. I would be highly disappointed if they stuck to the summer one, they need to change it up for the new tour! Anyway here's my prediction: Mylo Xyloto/Hurts Like Heaven Shiver Lost! Paradise Lovers In Japan Yellow Charlie Brown Politik Major Minus Viva La Vida [Acoustic] U.F.O. Us Against The World Swallowed In The Sea Clocks Strawberry Swing Fix You M.M.I.X./Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall In My Place Violet Hill Everything's Not Lost Christmas Lights [Encore] The Scientist A Hopeful Transmission/Don't Let It Break Your Heart Up With The Birds I would be pretty happy with this :P

R1 - Hurts Like Heaven R2 - Shiver R3 - Charlie Brown R4 - Fix You R5 - Lovers In Japan R6 - Yes R7 - Speed of Sound R8 - Warning Sign R9 - Strawberry Swing R10 - Everything's Not Lost R11 - Amsterdam R12 - I Ran Away R13 - Crests of Waves Parachutes - 2 A Rush - 4 X&Y - 2 Viva - 3 Mylo - 2
