well...then ignore my messages..:smug: but that would be very close-minded don't ya think....;):P:D:D

I'm still flirting with the idea of downloading the album if it gets leaked, but now I'm thinking about not doing that just because I enjoy listening to an album knowing that I have the original .....:D hehehe well.... I don't know YET!!! But I guess I'm downloading it.....haha I'm buying it after that, of course...... I'm going in circles about this ain't I?

About the April 18th date: From MTV.com: "Perhaps not so surprising following the birth of little Apple, Chris Martin and Coldplay seem to have babies — or at least sex chromosomes — on the brain. The band's new album, due June 7, will be called X&Y. The follow-up to A Rush of Blood to the Head will be preceded by the single "Speed of Sound," out April 18. U.S. tour dates should be announced in the coming weeks." From LiveDaily: "....Those lucky enough to attend will likely hear the band perform material from "X&Y," which Capitol Records plans to release June 7. "Speed of Sound," the album's first single, is due to begin airing on radio April 18, according to the label." From X-Tra FM: "Coldplay finally has a title and release date for their next album. The band’s third release will be called X&Y and will be in stores on June 7. It’ll be preceded by the first single, “Speed of Sound,” which will be released worldwide on April 18. According to the band's label, a 40-date North American tour is being planned, which will begin in late July and stretch through late September. Before that, Coldplay will headline Coachella on April 30, before kicking off the European leg of their world tour on June 15 in Hamburg, Germany."

The radio impact ALWAYS comes before the comercial release, since it's part of the promotion that will build up the sales. How is people gonna buy a single they haven't even heard..... As for the 18th thing, hold on, I'm gonna search and find where i got that from

that's what we all dream of...but we just cant' know for sure!!! only God knows...... :/ :dozey:

*dreams about having a collection of all coldplay releases...**

may I ask why??

^^ *wishes all artists were like Coldplay*....

^^ mee??

Isn't the radio impact date April 18?

I think I'm traveling to US on August 8th, and I'm staying for two weeks, so coldplay better have a show on Orlando during those dates or else....rmmm... I'm gonna cry a lot..... :P :P

It's very hard not to look at the future, but why get sad about this "probably" being Coldplay's last album when you haven't even heard it!! Better enjoy this as much as we can, and then start thinking about what Coldplay is gonna do next!! We can't predict this is gonna be Coldplay's last album nor Chris, just because he doesn't know for sure if he's not gonna come out with something better than this.....and believe me, great minds ALWAYS come up with better things, no matter how good was the prior one......

If you follow this link you'll get a list of results given when searching for "Coldplay" at CDUniverse.com: http://www.cduniverse.com/sresult.asp?HT_Search_Info=%22coldplay%22&HT_Search=ARTIST&image.x=0&image.y=0&cart=239523404&style=music&altsearch=yes Turns out that in that list, there is no US release of X&Y listed BUT there is a Japan release of X&Y that's (apparently) gonna be out on Wednesday, May 25, 2005........... Probably a mistake, right?

:lol: :lol:

Hello......I was reading that funny topic where someone said "Speed of Sound" was about losing their virginity or something like that....so I was wondering.... Does anyone has a theory of what "Speed of Sound" is about? Post it here!! :D

LoL..

Damn!!!! This song is too good to be true!!! The first time I heard it I was like WTF?!..... but now it's like WOW!!!!! AHGRRRRR!!! I'm dying to have X&Y on my hands!! And to only imagine I'm getting it like two weeks after the release in the US drives me crazy.... :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:
