Can't wait. I'm in the minority in thinking that ETIAW is a good song.
Oh, and I'm loving the album cover:
I'm looking forward to hearing this. The only new track I've heard is Every Teardrop etc, and while I didn't think much of it at first, I like it now.
Their only album I haven't really liked so far is X&Y, so I have high hopes for this one.

I think I might actually buy this. I've never been too into Coldplay, but ETIAW actually got me hooked. I think it's a great song. The cover artwork is really nice- looks vaguely like Achtung Baby to me.

I'm probably one of the few on here who thinks Viva La Vida is their best album so I hope they'll keep improving.
Glad to see people mentioning Square One. It's one of my favourites.
Gonna have to add to the Viva La Vida love. Fantastic album.
Yes into Chinese Sleep Chant...
From the sound of one of the interviews, it's a candidate for the album, but definitely not a lock. At the very least, I imagine a studio version would be released as a B-side, like what they did with Moving To Mars.Yeah, so I'm wondering if this new song will be on the album:
Not gonna lie, I like it.
Even X&Y, for all its obvious problems, had some good tunes on it...Fix You...
The improvement from X&Y to VLV is staggering. I think, if you concentrated all of the negative aspects of Viva La Vida into 5 minutes, the result could never be as obnoxious, overblown and insipid as Fix You. Swallowed In The Sea is somehow even worse.
The only reason I don't mind ETIAW now is simply by force of having to hear it on the radio 70 times per day. I don't ever stop on it, really, but I get enough five second helpings of it that I hear it at least once a day.
I don't like Yes much. I won't hear a bad word about Death And All His Friends, that chorus is thrilling.
And I really, really want to hate Fix You. I do. I don't love it, but I can't hate it and it was really good live. What If is another good one.
