Okay guys, I've listened to the song Viva la Vida about 10 times today. It's so goddamn catchy.
I really like that one too. And Strawberry Swing.. I cant stop playing it.

So when does this album come out? I might actually want to buy it
If this is Coldplays Unforgettable Fire, maybe the next one will be the best one.
for GOD'S SAKE.. this is no way near or on the level of Unforgettable Fire..
I don't get all the hype. I find it meh at best in what I have heard.. This is no Rush of Blood to the Head that's for sure..
I must be the only one who feels this way...
I really really like the new album. But I don't think it's better than Rush Of Blood. Still a very good Coldplay album, better than I expected.
Agreed! It's awesome but not better than Rush. Unless listening to an official copy when it comes out will change that.
I really like the acoustic version as well, but I also agree with what someone else said (now it's my turn to forget) that the acoustic version is more like the traditional Coldplay sound, so I can see why they didn't use it. I'm glad it at least exists for us, though, cuz it is really good.

The album is now streaming over at this website:

For all the people who have a moral and legal compass and don't want to be locked up in jail for pirating music!!!
It sounds the same as the version we already have but a little cleaner and crisper.
Apparently only Americans get this
Do they have a "full version" of LIT and if so, how does it sound?
I read somewhere that they had recorded a version of Life in Technicolor with vocals, and a friend of the band told them that it was too "typical Coldplay" so they stuck with the instrumental.
I think that is a testament to how consciously they tried to run away from their past on this album.
I'm thinking, though, that I would like to hear that version of LIT with vocals.
It's not workin for you LM?!? I'm listening to the stream as I type this sentence...
Damn.
Viva La Vida really should have been the first single. Horrific move releasing Violet Hill first. At some point, they really should release Lost! and Lovers In Japan as singles, which would make the list:
1. Violet Hill
2. Viva La Vida
3. Lost!
4. Lovers In Japan
Which certainly kicks the shit out of X&Y's single releases:
1. Speed Of Sound
2. Fix You
3. Talk
4. The Hardest Part (limited)
5. What If (limited)
6. White Shadows (Mexico only)
A part of me still thinks this album will fail to sell 10 million in spite of its quality, but I hope I'm wrong. They deserve it.
