Wow, I checked this thread early in the morning and when I returned there were hundreds of new pages to read :happy2: I'm not surprised about the color wheel, given the Anything Is Possible tease from the True Love video and its connection to the Dark Side of the Moon's cover. I really want to hear Lamhein...

Glass of Water 8 Clocks 10 Shiver 12

I think option 1 is best. It's based off of actual votes so the outcome will be as fair as possible.

The Blue Room

Would any lurkers who never voted before like to break the tie before it's really over? :P

I'm still standing by my vote for AROBTTH ;) But if no one decides to change their vote, I say call it a tie.

We're so starved of news that we'll swarm around anything that might even remotely relate to Coldplay. :wacko:

Can anyone else change their vote?

^ Agreed. If they were only doing the Global Citizen festival, I wouldn't necessarily anticipate new material. As a stand-alone event it would be like Under 1 Roof was in 2013, where the only "new" song was Atlas. Since they will appear at the iHeart Radio festival, though, there is a much greater chance that we'll hear something new. I'm pretty sure most artists that have reached Coldplay's level of success would not randomly play at a big showcase event with nothing to promote. I'm 99% sure that we'll get something new.

Brothers and Sisters

Good point... they could be rehearsing while they finish the album. They need to be comfortable playing the new material after all.

A Rush of Blood to the Head Politik must win!!! It's everything amazing about Coldplay put into a single song... to me it's the perfect Coldplay song. It deserves to be number one... 'cause one is best!

Whatever that is, it looks a lot like what I think the album artwork will be... bright, colorful, and abstract with a white background.

If they're still in the studio I'm sure they are just wrapping things up or Chris had a Clocks/Up In Flames moment and they need to finish up one last song really quick. :)

Gerard Way How could Liam Gallagher get eliminated in only the first round? Noel will probably make it to the final 3.

80's new wave would be an interesting direction to take... :thinking: As long as the whole album is not a clone of something they've done in the past, I will commend them for trying something new.

A A: People wanna fight for fun. But what is a battle when the war's already been won? B: You can say what you mean, but it won't change a thing, I'm sick of the secrets.

Cemeteries of London vs Bullet The Blue Sky (U2)

Safety

I can't believe I'm saying this but my vote goes to Clocks.

I think Amsterdam is a bit dark and so are Low, Oceans, and Prospekt's March. Those darker moments are actually some of the best. I'm sure we'll get at least one song like that on AHFOD.

That has to be I Bloom Blaum! The Smurfs are blue people ;)

We Can Work It Out (The Beatles) vs Trouble

(Slightly off-topic) I'd be fine with Chris just sitting down at his piano during a concert and playing something solo like Bloodless Revolution or The Fall of Man. I'd be the only one singing along though. :P Anyways yes, I have read in a few places that The Man Who Swears is an embryonic Major Minus. I also hear Charlie Brown in a few of those demos but I think it came about separately.

Gerard Way is my first vote. Other than him and a few other singers on the list, I think this is going to be tough!
