it would be cool if all the x tracks were the darker ones and the y tracks were the more happy, melodic ones

Dr. Pepper is stupid

Apparently the code has been cracked.... I bet the band was hoping the confusion over the artwork would last until at least the albums release

This song has the best lyrics of any Coldplay song I've heard. Especially the chorus (Maybe you'll get what you wanted, Maybe you'll stumble upon it). Good, good shit.

I know that the band has played a few new songs live (Square One, What If, A Message, White Shadows)..... is there any place to hear/ download the live versions of these songs??

I read that "till kingdom come" was originally written for Johnny Cash. Does this mean someone gave Coldplay the song or that Coldplay had written the song for Johnny Cash? I hope all the new material was written by the band.

When you said that song was written for Johnny Cash, what did you mean? Did Coldplay write the song or are they using a song someone else wrote. I hope everything on the album is written by the band, and not someone else.

without piano coldplay would be average... the fact that they reintroduced an instrument to rock is a large part of their contribution to music

It was said in a previous thread that Coldplay was writing a dark anti-war anthem that was 8 minutes long... any legitimacy to this statement? or am i just outta my mind...

Many choices abound for the best piano line in a coldplay song. Off of Parahcutes: Trouble and Everything's not lost... Off of AROBTTH: Politik, The Scientist, Clocks, Amsterdam.... Off of Coldplay Live: Life is for Living.......... Take your pick: Mine would be a tie between the Scientist and Life is For Living, withouting ignoring Amersterdam, which is a quality song.
