BTW Chris doesn't repeat "Send me up to that wonderful world And then I’m up with the birds" like the "official lyrics" say

wow either the guy who wrote the lyrics is deaf or he's drunken !

Have you guys noticed the heart beating sound in the end of AHT ?

I'd say X&Y. It's a wonderful song.

The Car Kids EP has just been announced !!! here's the tracklisting : 1 Car Kids 2 School Bus 3 Rickshaw in Shanghai 4 Every London Cab is Black 5 Atomic Train 6 Unicycle in the desert

It's hard cuz I like all the albums, but i'd say 1 X & Y (I discovered Coldplay with this album) 2 Mylo Xyloto 3 Viva la Vida 4 AROBTTH 5 Parachutes

Here's CB played live yesterday on a french TV show. I find it great. http://www.leblogtvnews.com/article-regardez-coldplay-en-live-au-grand-journal-avec-paradise-87871753.html

I listen to it every day and MX is still interesting for me ^^

Car Kids is really loved here ! it will be certainly released as the b-side of CB, in december. And in 2012 we'll have an EP with 5 or 6 more songs (Tomorrow, Golden Arrow, ...).

Good thing : The second half of the album is awesome Bad thing : The production on HLH and the deception with Charlie Brown (I think I'm the only one who doesn't find it that good)

Round 1 : Mylo Xyloto Round 2 : Hurts Like Heaven Round 3 : Paradise Round 4 : Violet Hill Round 5 : Viva la Vida Round 6 : Strawberry Swing Round 7 : Princess of China Round 8 : 42 Round 9 : Us Against The World Round 10 : U.F.O Round 11 : Don't Let It Break Your Heart Round 12 : The Escapist Final Round : Up With The Birds RESULT : Viva 5 Mylo Xyloto 8

My Top 5 : MX / Hurts Like Heaven Paradise UFO Princess of China Don't Let It Break Your Heart

This is my setlist for the upcoming MX Tour 1 MX / Hurts Like Heaven 2 Lovers In Japan 3 The Scientist 4 Charlie Brown 5 Lost! 6 Yellow 7 Paradise 8 Prospekt's March 9 Green Eyes 10 Up in Flames 11 Viva la Vida 12 In My Place 13 A Rush of Blood to the Head 14 Clocks 15 Us Against the World 16 Major Minus 17 Talk 18 Politik 19 A Hopeful transmission 20 DLIBYH -------------------- 21 Speed Of Sound 22 Fix You 23 M.M.I.X./ETIAW

MX theme is the leitmotiv of this album. We find it in UFO, AHT and DLIBYH

The most important is that MTM has been released anyway. It's a great B-side, and I hope we'll get more new songs for this era

It should have been mixed with ETIAW, actually like MX and HLH. It introduces ETIAW brillantly

It's the best song of the album !

Am I the only one here who doesn't find CB that awesome ? rhis song is ok but I was expecting a real hit ! for me there are other songs stronger and obvious singles, like POC and DLIBYH

Just listended to the album. I gave it a 8 My first impressions : - UFO and Paradise are awesome, - PoC isn't that bad, - Charlie Brown failed me, I don't know why I probably should have more listens (it's the first time I listen to it) - HLH is a good song but spoiled by overproduction (we can hardly hear Chris). - MMIX is an awesome intro to ETIAW - The end of the album is very good but I need more listens to catch the 2 last songs in their whole complexity. In conclusion, MX is a solid 5th album, but Viva is better.

Here in France it will be 01:00 am (we have 1 hour more than UK)

For me it's the CD. So I can hear it in the car. It's also a pleasure when you go to the shop buying a new disc !

Don't worry guys Car Kids will be the B-side of Charlie Brown single; it'll be released by the end of the year IMO

My guess : June : ETIAW Sept. : Paradise Oct. : Princess of China + B-side End of December or january 2012 : Charlie Brown + B-side June 2012 :Up In Flames

I think they will play CL live in december. But I doubt we'll have another special song. A new MX single with B-sides is more likely as christmas gift.

Will said in an interview : "When we work on a new record, we always think it might be our last. So we give our best and try to seize the moment"
