Blue Nails

I like their black ones slightly better than their blue ones.

People are tweeting about a leak though...

Okay I'm staying awake just a little longer.

Oh man, I can't believe I was there. I forgot how fantastic they played. Shiver was just perfect :dazzled: And the interview was pretty long, I liked it!

Princess of China for me too. Maybe Rihanna isn't so bad... :uhoh:

Lol Tracie that's hilarious, it fits so well! :laugh3: Where's that picture from? It's really nice. Maybe a little too shopped, but the boys look good. :smug:

Sooooooooooo when is this little album going to leak again?

Lol, well......... You want some evidence? :wink3: And :wink3:

^:D

^^^Yeah me too! Well, we'll see.... :sneaky: Xylo toes........ Original. Thank you for posting, great article. Chris is awesome.

They will? You can re-listen all of their shows online. ;)

It's an obvious choice if they picked POC as a single, therefore it would be really cool if they didn't.

Which means something like: Sorry if there's mistakes Music: Coldplay Special Missed out on Coldplay at Werchter this summer? To bring you to the attention of their fifth record 'Mylo Xyloto' (West Flemish for 'I also love you when you're wasted'), Canvas broadcasts the whole show again tonight. The pre-show is taken care of by Kirsten Lemaire, who got to visit Chris Martin and guitarist Jonny Buckland the other day, exclusively for Flanders. Kirsten Lemaire "We did that in their own studio, The Bakery, where they remained for months to record their album, up until the day before the interview. I was the first journalist of the day - and probably of the whole promo period - which was very pleasant. You could tell everything was still fresh inside their heads, they kept watching each other as well - like: 'How was it again?' Or: 'Am I allowed to say this?' They hadn't ben interviewed to pieces yet. "Also remarkable: the people of the record company were pretty strained and made sure everything went according to their tight schedules. And just before the interview I saw an assistant comprehensively brushing their shoes which were part of the pressphoto outfit of the band - but Jonny and Chris themselves were very relaxed. To them everything was 'fine'. It was also more of a conversation than an interview. "For example, halfway through Chris suddenly asked: 'This has nothing to do with the interview, but you're from Belgium: how did things end on Pukkelpop? Will everything be ok? What are the consequences? Et cetera.' Very sincere, just out of concern. Pleasant to see that he doesn't need to act like the Artist all the time." HUMO Reportedly his new lyrics are about 'addiction, OCD and working for someone you don't like'. Lemaire "I read that as well, and I asked him, laughingly: 'Is the world getting to you, these days?' Well, it seems like those are the main themes on the record, but I feel like he's doing very well himself. And also that he has a fitness membership nowadays. He used to be such a skinny boy, but now he has a very toned body. Er, that's just what I noticed." HUMO Were there topics about which they told you were off limits? Lemaire "Gwyneth (Paltrow, Mrs. Chris Martin). Well, they said: 'No personal questions.' Also because in that week, there had been press rumours about them not being toghether anymore. No problem for me; I was just there to talk about the record anyway. Something which was appreciated apparently, because in the end Martin said: 'Thank you for talking about the record, and not about older rubbish, as usual.'" HUMO Did you punch yourself in the face afterwards because you had forgotten to ask something? Lemaire "Yes! I wanted to ask what The Beatles were doing on their toilet." HUMO Excuse me? Lemaire "I went to the bathroom afterwards - an experience at itself, because now my butt has touched the the toilet seat which their butts had been sitting on for all those weeks (laughs). And there on the wall was this very nice, old black and white picture of four very young Beatles. At that moment, the interview was over. I didn't dare to ask the press representative for extra time, just because I 'still had a toilet question left'."

Interview by HUMO with tonight's interviewer: Muziek: Coldplay Special Afgelopen zomer de passage van Coldplay op Werchter gemist? Om u hun vijfde plaat 'Mylo Xyloto' (West-Vlaams voor 'Ik zie je ook graag als je zat bent') onder de aandacht brengen, zendt Canvas het vanavond nog eens integraal uit. Het voorprogramma wordt verzorgd door Kirsten Lemaire, die laatst Chris Martin en gitarist Jonny Buckland exclusief voor Vlaanderen mocht opzoeken. Kirsten Lemaire «Het was in hun eigen studio te doen, The Bakery, waar ze maanden hadden gebivakkeerd om de plaat op te nemen, tot de dag voor dit interview. Ik was de eerste journalist van de dag - en dus wellicht van de hele promoperiode - en dat was erg aangenaam. Je merkte dat alles nog vers in hun hoofd zat, ze waren ook de hele tijd naar elkaar aan het loeren - zo van: 'Hoe zit het nu ook weer?' Of: 'Mag ik dit wel zeggen?' Ze waren nog niet platgeïnterviewd. »Viel ook op: de mensen van de platenfirma zagen er behoorlijk gestresseerd op toe dat alles strak verliep. En net voor het interview zag ik een assistente nog uitvoerig borstelen aan de schoenen die bij de persfoto-outfit van de groep horen - maar Johnny en Chris zelf zaten er zeer relaxed bij. Voor hen was alles 'fine'. 't Was ook eerder een gesprek dan een interview. »Halverwege vroeg Chris bijvoorbeeld ineens: 'Dit heeft niets met het interview te maken, maar jij bent van België: hoe is het nog afgelopen op Pukkelpop? Komt dat nog goed? Wat zijn de gevolgen? Et cetera.' Heel oprecht, uit niets dan bezorgdheid. Aangenaam om te zien dat hij nog niet de behoefte voelt om voortdurend de Artiest uit te hangen.» HUMO Naar verluidt gaan zijn nieuwe teksten over 'verslavingen, obsessieve stoornissen en werken voor mensen die je niet kan uitstaan'. Lemaire «Dat had ik ook gelezen, en ik heb hem gevraagd, al lachend: 'Veel last van de wereld, tegenwoordig?' Nu, het blijken inderdaad de voornaamste thema's op de plaat, maar ik heb de indruk dat het met hemzelf uitstekend gaat. En ook dat hij tegenwoordig een fitnessabonnement heeft. Vroeger was dat toch zo'n schriel ventje, nu had hij zo'n heel toned lichaam. Euh, dat was mij dan weer opgevallen.» HUMO Zijn er onderwerpen waarvan men jou vooraf had gezegd dat ze off limits waren? Lemaire «Gwyneth (Paltrow, mevrouw Chris Martin, red.). Enfin, men zei: 'No personal questions.' Ook al omdat er net in die week van alles in de pers was verschenen over dat ze zogezegd niet meer samen zouden zijn. Geen probleem voor mij; ik was daar toch alleen om het over de plaat te hebben. Iets wat blijkbaar gewaardeerd werd, want op het einde zei Martin nog: 'Thank you for talking about the record, and not about older rubbish, as usual.'» HUMO Heb je achteraf nog voor de kop geslagen omdat je iets was vergeten te vragen? Lemaire «Ja! Ik had willen vragen wat The Beatles op hun wc deden.» HUMO Excuseer? Lemaire «Ik ben nadien even naar het toilet geweest - op zich een ervaring, want mijn billen hebben dus de bril aangeraakt waar ook hún billen zich al die weken op hadden neergevlijd (lacht). En daar hing aan de muur een heel mooie, oude zwart-witfoto van vier nog zeer jonge Beatles. Nu, het interview was op dat moment al voorbij. En ik durfde de persverantwoordelijke niet om extra tijd te vragen 'omdat ik nog een wc-vraag had'.»

:lol: Seems like I really missed out then. Well I voted for today, so the wait is almost over.:wink3:

Goodmorning. Any news over the past eight hours?

Thanks. I'm off. Good luck F5ing everyone! Make sure you F5 that album into some kind of Justin soon.

Question: F5 or bed?

They're all (well, maybe apart from the yellow ones) really good! :thumbsup: Voted for #9

Haha, why couldn't they do one in Dutch? So easy to learn. :P Question. When you guys enter the competition, do you write anything else apart from your name and address? I always feel awkward writing something extra, but it's also kinda weird not to. It's either 'hey I'm very much currying favor cause I wanna win' or 'I don't care, just give me that signed album.'

Typo? It's 12. You guys are awesome, btw. 162 pages :lol:

Never heard of Acoustic Sunrise, but it sounds GREAT! Yeah, they're sure doing a lot of promo. I don't really mind though, they seem to have good taste in shows.

Me too. :nod:

Thanks for the post! They're all being pretty positive, aren't they?

Oh thanks for this story, hilarious! :laugh3: I can't believe they're actually doing this... This could go very wrong. Ah whatever, maybe it's brilliant.
