Its now the 24th according to an interview I heard with them today for USA and CAN.

It absolutely sounds like a soundtrack. The more I listen on repeat, the more I adore it. It really is amazing. People have to listen a few more times. VLV took me a while to get used to, but like I said earlier, this is feeling like home already. And even the songs I didn't like are growing on me in the context of the story... Can't wait to get my pop-up album.

I didn't multi-quote properly! My comment is to the person who said their live performances are bad... I totally disagree! Saw them live in Toronto, not 4 feet in front of me was Chris singing beautifully. How he sings and plays piano with his sweat soaking the keyboard, I will never understand. I thought the inital promo tour for VLV was terrible (Live at the BBC)...their live show now is polished and a pleasure to listen to.

Definitely one of my favourite of all time. I can listen to it over and over without getting sick of it.

On my third full album listen. I must say, it does have to be listened to in its entirety. Different than I had expected, but already feel like home...

Yes, sounds like two songs. The sounds are so different and interesting. The album is not what I expected. But after 800 repeats, I'm sure I will adore it like all the others. Although ROBTTH is what I've been listening to lately and damn, are they amazing. I never get tired of it.

Absolutely beautiful...these interludes are amazing. Never disappoint.

LOVE it! Definitely a favourite. I could hear this one going mainstream for sure...an A-HA inspired song, I can tell, Chris!!

Didn't like it, never really liked it...whiny and annoying with the repeated lyrics. Much better songs on the album...maybe it will grow on me, but its not a winner as many times I've heard it so far...

Loved it...really beautiful!

I started laughing, it was just sooo weird listening to the studio version!! I'm not sure I like it, def better live. We'll see, I will probably get used to it. Overall, the album does sound different than I thought it would be despite hearing more than half of it in live performances and early downloads from iTunes...I'm sure the album will be a favourite after a few more listens.

I just listened to the studio version. I actually started laughing. After listening to the live performances of this song so many times, I was a bit disappointed and felt it was too complex. Maybe I need to get used to it. I would love them to do an acoustic version of the album. Slow a few down and not over produce them so much. Definitely feeling an Achtung Baby vibe with the album so far. Listening to it right now.

I agree, the festival version was great. Chris is amazing, but when they sing together it is emotional and you hear Chris' voice sound different; they are both whining a bit. I love that its Coldplay a bit edgier and interesting. They are so versatile. Can't wait to hear the other songs. I've listened to this one at least 30 times already. My husband is gonna get damned sick of me...as he has since 2003 when I dragged him to our first Coldplay concert. Coldplay, please NEVER stop making music. Ever.

Thank you! Can't wait to hear the actual version next week...it sounds great. Their voices are great. And its like Chris said, it doesn't sound like typical Rihanna. I would still like to hear Chris do it alone like he did at those few festivals.

Who is he super cute photographer we saw on stage just before Coldplay went on in Toronto at Much Music this past Wednesday? We all thought it was Miller, but turns out we were wrong about that! This guy was handsome and didn't have a British accent, but was taking Roadie-like close up pics of different things on stage... Anyone have a clue?

And we're not allowed umbrellas. Get your ponchos out. This might suck ass. Just watched them live on Letterman, actually watching AGAIN now, getting excited for this, but if its pissing with rain, this won't be fun. :(

Maybe we will be spared and it will rain everywhere but over the lot...gotta stay optimistic here! No idea what to wear! What time are people heading down to get in line?

Yeah, should for sure work. It said you could forward your tickets when I got mine. Don't worry. They want photo ID to make sure people are of the appropriate age and aren't going to try anything funny, maybe they'll scan our drivers licenses like night clubs do. Its all good.

The 'light' showers have turned into more rain and actual thunderstorms. They better not cancel the concert, but can't be safe for all of us out there, right? Anyone know what Much Music's policy is on these things? I will be SOO bummed if this doesn't work out. :(

Anyone worried about the weather? Starting to panic!! The rain starts around 4pm it says. Let's all pray together for gray skies and NO rain!

Questions about Much Lot Does anyone know just how many tickets and wristbands are available? How crowded and nuts do you guys think it will be? My thought is there is room for a couple thousand people. Anyone know for sure? Anyone been to a 'lot' show before? Do they let you have in and out privileges? Bathrooms? Food in there? Thanks! Sooooo excited for the show!
