haha i just realised that. Now only 11 hours to go :dance: I'll be getting up at 6:30am my time to watch it. Is there anything going on before the bands performance for the live stream?

i could start on my work......or i could keep watching The Office :thinking:

DLIBYH with 66 plays........though i have accidentally left the album on repeat a few times so realistically it's more like 60 plays :)

The problem is all journalists go in expecting classic coldplay.........and of course they bash them because they've changed their style. Also, their job isn't on the line, it's their opinion so they can say anything they want. You can never write and unbiased report/paper/review.......on anything, not just music Here is a classic example of someone simply hating CP all together. You can tell this 'journalist' hated them before he even listened to MX. He even attacks chris personally which just shows why he isn't writing for a magazine or newpaper: ----------------------------- Hearing for the first time the songs that will, inevitably and inexorably, become part of the fabric of Western life from X Factor auditions to shopping-centre muzak, is a strange and often depressing experience. Mylo Xyloto is already guaranteed bigness, by the very fact of being the fifth album by Coldplay. But it takes no chances. This is a record that browbeats and bullies you into submission with its sheer massiveness, courtesy of producer Brian Eno. "Hurts Like Heaven", the first song (barring the overture), sounds like LCD Soundsystem's "All My Friends" played by idiots in boxing gloves, and that level of subtlety continues through every synth-smothered second. At one point, unbelievably, Martin actually sings, straight-faced, "I'd rather be a comma than a full-stop". Strange. He has much more in common with a colon. http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-en...i-2374493.html

Listening to music and laying in bed .... Which is what I'm doing now.... and it's 1:48 am here so goodnight coldplayers :)

Thanks :) I have no idea how good this is in terms of their other album sales but nearly 100 thousand sales in under 2 days is incredibly impressive! :)

Well i applaud him for getting this far. If i was Chris i would have gotten pissed off along time ago. I mean, I watched an Australian interview just last Friday and the reporter asked him about Gwyneth around 2 times, then he started asking questions about things that happened years a go and then he asked this..."When you started the band 14 years ago did you ever think you would get this far?".....CP being one of the worlds biggest bands, i couldn't imagine how many times he's been asked that. I would have said "You couldn't come up with a more original question?"

Like Kiame said, Music is just so very subjective. No matter what you try, you can never write a completely un-biased paper/review.....on anything, not just music. The problem with journalists is that they have essentially already written the review in their head without having listened to the album yet. If they like CP as a band, they are going to in some way review MX in a positive way, if they hate them, they're going to review them in a negative way, no matter how the album sounds. Here's an example. This journalist clearly does not like CP, it's that simple. He even attacks chris personally which is just weird for a 'professional journalist': Hearing for the first time the songs that will, inevitably and inexorably, become part of the fabric of Western life from X Factor auditions to shopping-centre muzak, is a strange and often depressing experience. Mylo Xyloto is already guaranteed bigness, by the very fact of being the fifth album by Coldplay. But it takes no chances.
