But remember that Viva La Vida had those three hidden tracks and I don't really consider those as part of the album haha. I didn't care for any of them, just wasted space IMO. So in reality Viva La Vida was only like 37-38 minutes long NOT including the hidden tracks. So the average song was like 3:40s long while if Mylo Xyloto has 11 full length tracks then thats probably going to be about 42min between those with another 2-3min for the probable 3 Instrumental tracks. This will be the first album without a 5+min song, most likely......

1. Hurts Like Heaven: 10/10 2. Charlie Brown: 10/10 3. Moving To Mars: 10/10 4. Paradise: 10/10 5. Every Teardrop is a Waterfall: 9/10 6. Us Against the World: 8/10 7. Major Minus: 7/10 And I would rank Up In Flames as a 10/10 most likely but the one I heard the sound quality was lacking so I'll withhold judgement until i hear the actual album version.

1. A Rush of Blood To the Head: 5/5 Stars 2. X&Y: 4.5/5 3. Viva La Vida: 3.5/5 4. Parachutes: 3/5 From what i've heard from Mylo Xyloto This will DEFINITELY top Parachutes and viva la vida.....might top X&Y but I doubt it will top AROBTTH.....but you never know :D

They way I figure a best of album is that a band should take NO MORE than 25% of the total number of studio album songs they have released so far. So not including Mylo Xyloto that would equal 10+11+12+10 = 43 .....so 30% would mean about 13 songs... But including Mylo Xyloto I would give the "best of" 3 or 4 extra slots cause Mylo has 14 songs.....not sure if there all "complete" songs though.... So thats 17 songs for 5 albums here they are: 1. Violet Hill 2. Square One 3. In My Place 4. Sparks 5. Viva La Vida 6. I Ran Away (B-side) 6. Moving to Mars (B-side) 7. A Message 8. A Rush of Blood to the Head 9. Clocks 10. Fix You 11. Death and All His Friends (No Escapist) 12. Politik 13. Yellow 14. The Scientist 15. Amsterdam 16. N/A 17. N/A 18. N/A Parachutes: 3 songs AROBTTH: 6 X&Y: 3 Viva la Vida: 3 B-Sides: 2 Mylo Xyloto: At least 3 songs most likely I've got three spots reserved for Mylo Xyloto and I didn't want to put anything on there that has been released yet because I want to hear the full album first. Paradise might make the cut cause I love that song....and I might give it more than 3 songs and take something off, 18 is a good number for 5 albums I think.... But I HAD to put Moving to Mars on here....SUCH a great song, shame it was left off the album :(

Well I hope its longer than 45min...... I happen to think that 48-55min is about perfect for an album with 11-14 songs. No longer no shorter..... But seriously shorter albums are overrated. If you have 14 great songs than put them on the darn album. I mean bands only put out 1 album every 2 to 3 years at the earliest anyways. Usually its 3-4 now for full albums... Lets break it down so far: 1. Every Tear Drop is a Waterfall- 4:03 2. Major Minus- 3:31 3. Paradise- 4:39 Then add in the songs that were played live: 4. Hurts Like Heavan- Approx. 4:45 5. Charlie Brown- Approx. 4:00 6. Princess of China- Apporx. 3:50 7. Us Against the World: Approx. 3:30 So ASSUMING that all 14 songs on the album are NOT Full songs then lets add those 7 up.........and that gives us about 28-29min......Thats means that the average song is just over 4 minutes........ So my guess is that 5 of the 7 songs remaining are full length songs so add those up (MAJOR SPECULATION): 8. A Hopeful Transmission- 4:10 9. Up In Flames- 4:40 10. Up With the Birds- 4:05 11. U.F.O.- 3:25 12. DLIBYH- 4:15 We then add those up as projections and we get about 20-21min.... Then we add the following two songs as basically intros as thats what I think they'll be... 13. Mylo Xyloto- 1:05 14. M.M.I.X.- 00:45 So add all three phases up and you get about 50-53 minutes give or take...... Just cause I did all this work i'm gonna put my money on 51:42......... So I think were looking at MINIMUM 48 minutes unless U.F.O. is an intro too....

1. A Rush of Blood to the head: 5/5 Stars 2. X & Y: 5/5 Stars 3. Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends: 4/5 Stars 4. Parachutes: 3/5 Stars
