^ I think you mean Major Minus :D

^ I've managed to convince my friends that Clocks and Viva la Vida are good songs, but they don't like any of the others :P

lolwut? :lol: Daniel Radcliffe lied to me! :phu:

Robinson Crusoe. A bit dry at first, but it's gotten progressively better.

I guess I'll enjoy it then, since I have a strange obsession with dark movies :P

Agreed.

Hmm . . . Good Thing: drops a week before my birthday, which would make LP5 the greatest birthday present ever (except for actual Coldplay tickets) Bad Thing: November 11 is a heck of a long time from now! :uhoh: I can't wait another 5 months for this! :confused:

I know exactly how you feel! I think I'm literally the only Coldplay fan within a hundred mile radius where I live, so whenever I talk about them at school people get annoyed and claim that Coldplay suck. I'm pretty sure I would explode if this site didn't exist :P

^ a-HA! :awesome:

^ Thalia, that smilie made me crack up :lol: Sure, go right ahead :)

^ THIS. Although I hate not getting any news even if I know the guys are working on finishing the album. I don't want them to take time off to give us news, but yet I want to hear something so badly :bigcry:

Oh, you really had to do this to me, didn't you? :P 1. Politik (Live 2003 but with the added piano on the end which segues into...) 2. Viva la Vida 3. Don't Panic 4. Gravity 5. Death And All His Friends (including The Escapist) 6. Clocks (with Twisted Logic tour-style ending) 7. Major Minus 8. Violet Hill 9. Cemeteries Of London 10. Brothers And Sisters (Alternate Version) 11. Strawberry Swing 12. A Rush Of Blood To The Head (studio version, but with Jonny's Live 2003 solo incorporated) 13. Amsterdam (Hidden Track: Life Is For Living [studio version, but with live version-style ending])

^ :surprised:

Gravity, Violet Hill, or Clocks (I've listened to this so many times that whenever I tap my fingers I inadvertently tap out the piano riff to this song :D)

Umm . . . No? The jogger would be moving at the same speed as the soundwaves around him, so they would never reach his ears. The same thing happens if you hold a mirror in front of your face while moving at the speed of light.

It's gonna be the best year ever! :cool: (that is, if the world doesn't end next year :P )

^ No doubt we'll see at least 2-3 of these new songs on the album, but I highly doubt that the guys would give us a bunch of songs off their 'masterpiece' months beforehand (see my previous post above). I remember that the guys played a ton of new songs before ARoBttH was released, but not all of them made it on the album. I can think of 'Solid Ground' 'Amsterdam' and 'Idiot' (and maybe 'A View From The Top'?) just off the top of my head. Whereas, only Amsterdam made it onto the album--as a reworked version with slightly different lyrics, at that. Maybe they're doing a repeat of that era with LP5? :shrug: As for ETiaW being a 'reintroduction' for the people outside this fanbase . . . wouldn't it make sense for it to be released as a single and then consequently left off the album? Think of it this way: You're a semi-casual fan of Coldplay, you've bought their albums and been to a few gigs of theirs, but you aren't so enamored with them that you stalk their Facebook/Twitter/fansites for new information. When you hear that they've released a new single (ETiaW) you buy it, end of story. A few weeks later, an EP is released with ETiaW included. You buy the whole EP and that's that. A few months later, you buy their new album only to find that the single you bought from them twice before a few months prior has been included and is taking up a slot that could otherwise be filled with a completely new song. I don't know how the rest of you would feel about that, but I would feel slightly cheated. This also goes for some of you which have bought not only the single and EP, but vinyl and CD released also. If I had a limited amount of money to spend on Coldplay, I wouldn't want to buy a song more times than I had to. Not trying to be belligerent or anything, but I just think it would be smarter if the guys kept ETiaW off LP5's tracklisting :shrug:

^ They do? :laugh4: Seems awfully inconvenient for them, but I'll still be awake for it at least :awesome: Sometimes I'm so glad that England is six hours ahead of me :smug:

IT'S A SIGN! :awesome:

^ Exactly. Even Politik still gets frequent lyrical changes! But I think we are getting very close one this one :dance:

You really like HLH, don't you? :laugh4:

I'm betting we hear a studio version of Charlie Brown and Hurts Like Heaven even if they don't make the album. The same goes for Princess of China, since I think it could be one of those massive singalong songs that are so great. :D As for what I'm pretty sure will end up on LP5: Major Minus - There's stuff about it written all over their clothes and instruments Charlie Brown - Phil mentioned in a Tweet that CB will eventually be an old crowd favorite--why would they continue to play it if it weren't included on LP5 or an EP? And that's pretty much it. All of the other songs on LP5 are wildcards :shrug:

^ Agreed. Some of Coldplay's best songs are sad and a bit depressing, (A Rush of Blood To the Head, anyone?) but I think it's because they haven't written very many 'happy' songs until now. I'm hoping LP5 will have the perfect mix of both :sneaky:

^ :lol: Oh no!
