the cover photo of the globe for the 'parachutes' album was taken by the band. From the official site "In a move that at the time felt foolhardy but in retrospect was inspired, the band took it upon themselves to come up with a sleeve. Equipped with a disposable Kodak and less than accomplished photographic skills, they managed to snap the shot that went on to represent their music all around the world. The globe, bought for under £10 in WHSmith, had been their constant companion both on tour and in the studio." the cover photo for 'a rush of blood to the head' was a digital image taken by Solve Sundsbo. a digital image was taken of each member of the band members for each single, I don't know who is on the album cover tho. In My Place - Johnny Buckland (fron of head exploding) The Scientist - Will Champion (head and shoulders, leaning forwards) Clocks - Chris Martin (looking up through his body) God Put A Smile Upon Your Face - Guy Berryman (the back of his hear exploding) The cover image for the x&y album is a graphic code meaning x&y, the artwork for each of the singles taken from the album will also use the same code with the name of the single. The code is reviealed in the centre of the cd album booklet.

when i went to see the band play in crystal palace london i remember they played brian eno - an ending (ascent) john lennon - tomorrow never knows the smiths - how soon is now don't know which tracks these were tho the stone roses Kraftwerk radiohead (i think) david bowie the cure? echo and the bunnymen?

haha ok, can't wait to go there :)

trouble what wouldn't i do

i've always liked poor me, but i'd love to have a studio version of it, still, i suppose it will sound good because they will mix it properly. Maybe they just couldn't get the song right when they came to record it, which is a shame

Sorry this has probably been said loads of times, but isn't the two faultline tracks just brilliant. I haven't listened to your love means everything for years. forgot how good it was :D Sorry for a pointless post :)

just listening to faultline - your love means everything :)

Kapone, I've just found the brothers and sisters tab, thank you very much. I've wanted to play this song for years! thank you thank you thank you :D

fix you. I like the acoustic guitar after the 1st chorus

it looks the same to me, i've got the uk tour version. Maybe the list of people at the back, such as promoters, lighting etc may be slightly different.

i'd love to know the chords to this song, i'm sure the strings are detuned. always liked this song wish i could play it :(

wonder if coldplay will get involved? :)

i'd heard kraftwerks music before but never really thought about it, and then when coldplay said talk was influenced by kraftwerk i listened to their music. I like it, haven't heard the tour de france album oly the single will have to find the album :)

jamiroqui - feels just like it should

i got the tour programme at the crystal palace gig in london, some brillaint pictures in it :)

i like one i love from the live 2003 dvd. i think its a great song :)

hi here is the bands uk discography http://www.geocities.com/coldplay_discography/discography.htm all the info about single releases and dates should be here

normally at big concerts more tickets are released a few weeks before. I never been to the millenium stadium so can't wait to see how big it really is. been listening to 'don't believe the truth' again today love all the tracks. i didn't like part of the queue at first but now i do, love the percussion and the piano bit at the end. would have liked to hear liam sing it

today mine is the scientist. heard it on virgin radio earlier today

hi Just wondered if anyone had heard about any radio or tv promo that the band have done on this north american tour

yeah i like it too. they released a live version on the european 'don't panic' single. It was recorded here 1st december 2000 Rockefeller Music Hall; Oslo, Norway

thanks for the reviews and setlist, sounds like another great gig :)

i couldn't compare them really. they're two different albums made at different stages in the bands career. The band have moved forward from each of their previous albums. I love both parachutes, a rush of blood and x and y its interesting what they'll do for the next record

harmless your a target i'm aiming at
