Heya OP, would be grateful to use the stems you have collected for my mixing work!

Agreed mate! I've just started relistening to AHFOD and Army of One is a standout track for me ^_^

Yep, I agree. I suspect it's deliberate. When Chris sings that last line, to me he sounds resigned, moving forward to accepting his current situation and moving on forward.

I'm pretty sure that Apple, her friend Mabel and Moses are credited with vocals only on the last track, O.

Me neither. I'd love to hear some more ambitious and soulful songs similar to Sleeping Sun; Animals; Don Quixote; Proof; Gravity; See You Soon

It's quite a nice light feel-good PEDM (Poptronic dance music :laugh3: ) song, and I like how Chris's confident voice punches through the synths. However, the song sounds completely and utterly out of place on a Coldplay album, and completely out of place from what I am used to as the Coldplay range of sounds. Midnight seems to be the only other more unconventional song on Ghost Stories that I've heard so far. I like Midnight a lot more than ASFOS, but I still don't think it belongs in an album.

Shred, I know how it might feel to be overwhelemed by waves of Coldplay awesome. But fear not! Pick yourself up and surf on the Crests of Waves! Although you might currently feel like Once Ghost Stories comes out, you'll feel like

:( ha I think I know what you mean, the_escapist and LFDianne! Get all stoked for a new album, and...booo, only 9 songs. Let's try and remain optimistic, and grateful for a new album :) And hey, who knows, maybe the 9 songs will be longer than the slated 4:45 displayed on the track listings for several of the songs. Keep in mind that the iTunes listing for Ghost Stories does not yet have the duration listed for all the tracks, so the album may be longer than we think!
