Coldplay Are Getting "Risky" On Their New Album

Coldplay have nearly completed work on their new album and frontman Chris Martin has revealed some of the songs see the band getting a little "risky" compared to their previous releases.

Speaking about their recent studio sessions, the singer says: "We're down to 15[songs]. I'm trying to make sure there are three songs that start with the same letter. On the last album it was 'L'. It might be 'U' this time.

"One of them is Up With The Birds. It might be a duet, but we don't know who with yet. The other two might change."

Chris added that guitarist Jonny Buckland has a big part in the new recordings, as he shared with Q: "Hurts Like Heaven is all Jonny. It only has two chords. The songs are group-y, its guitar-y. Johnny is coming out of his cocoon. We're just trying some risky things."

Martin continued: "We're hungry and very fired up. In five years we'll be in our late 30s. You have to have your best work done my then."

Before the new is released, Coldplay will release a Christmas single called Christmas Lights on December 1st.

Hurts Like Heaven is a terrible name for a song

[an angel]

That's exactly what I was thinking.

[Crests]

I read that as "frisky".

[lucyb]

^ Coldplay are getting frisky.....LOL :wink3:

[AnnaElisabeth]

I like 'Up With the Birds' for a name, though... :wacko:

[Destrokk]

Oh no.

[lucyb]

^What on earth are you doing?

[Lore]

I can't imagine myself saying OMG HURTS LIKE HEAVEN IS AWESOME :heart:

I hope I'm wrong and it will be a nice song.

[an angel]

It sounds like the name of some 80s band's song. :sick:

[Lore]

does heaven hurt? :freak:

[Megalomania]

I can't imagine myself saying OMG HURTS LIKE HEAVEN IS AWESOME :heart:

I hope I'm wrong and it will be a nice song.

Yeah me too. :anxious:

Although, song names really don't mean too much, the song could be amazing. :shrug:

[howyousawtheworld]

Hurts Like Heaven doesn't sound like a great title but let's just remember back in 2008 the 'What the fuck is Viva La Vida loca or whatever crap/shit/cheesy name for a song title is that' reaction.

Up With the Birds sounds nice as does Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall.

[Lore]

What the fuck is Viva La Vida loca or whatever crap/shit/cheesy name for a song title is that'

:lol:

[an angel]

Every Teardrop is a Waterfall?

[howyousawtheworld]

Every Teardrop is a Waterfall?

Likely to be the album closer. ;)

[Crests]

IT HURTS SO GOOD MAN

[ViVA Child]

Every Teardrop is a Waterfall

:blank:........................................... ......:facepalm:

[Destrokk]

Let's not overeact durhurr.

[an angel]

Oh, I didn't realize that was a real song from their next album, I thought you made it up or something.

[howyousawtheworld]

Oh, I didn't realize that was a real song from their next album, I thought you made it up or something.

No I did not maam. Now is there a sense of awkwardness that it's not a joke?

[Lore]

I hope the lyrics are better :blank:

[dry_pretzels]

Is it bad that I kind of laughed when I read "Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall"? :uhoh:

But yeah, hopefully they're good songs.

[an angel]

:blank:........................................... ......:facepalm:

What?

No I did not maam. Now is there a sense of awkwardness that it's not a joke?

No

It sounds incredibly cheesy. :blank:

[Crests]

I wonder what this album will be like :|

[howyousawtheworld]

What?



No



It sounds incredibly cheesy. :blank:

Great! We can all relax now! :D

Come to think of it Everytear Drop Is A Waterfall is starting to make me think the album title is going to be called 'Moments' with the album cover a picture of Chris Martin reclining on a sofa with a rose in his mouth...looking seductively. Ughh!

[Crests]

MASCULINITY

[Lore]

let's create LP5 style song titles :cheesy:

[howyousawtheworld]

let's create LP5 style song titles :cheesy:

My Hand Pumps My Organ For You. A lovely synth organ driven soft rocker.

[Destrokk]

I'm upset.

[Destrokk]

My memories are remembered.

[an angel]

I wonder what this album will be like :|

It's gonna be super girly. Ren will love it. :blush:

[howyousawtheworld]

Zeich Heil In The Name Of Motherfuckin Love

(White Rose movement influences obvious)

[Lore]

hurts like hell










well, that makes sense :freak:

[ViVA Child]

What? ....... It sounds incredibly cheesy. :blank:

The answer is in the question.

[Destrokk]

A lot of Coldplay songs sound cheesy, if you forget about the song and just the title, Lovers in Japan is quite cheesy and.. some other songs.

Let's not lose hope. It's bumming me out.

[ViVA Child]

isnt it funny how you said lets not talk until Coldplay has some new big news ...and then 3 days later Coldplay shit hits the fan?

ps... does this mean I don't get my clone anymore?

[WeddingDom]

They are only names :dozey:

[iluvjonnyboy]

The song titles are really cheesy. I'm getting worried. I hate their most popular commercial songs like VLV and Clocks :dozey:

[footyfan10]

Nice to see I'm not the only one who hates these song titles. I really hope Chris is joking. "Up With The Birds"? Are you fucking kidding me? That sounds like a children's song from the fifties. They can be awesome musically...but the names just can't be those. I really hope Chris was taking the piss.

[howyousawtheworld]

The song titles are really cheesy. I'm getting worried. I hate their most popular commercial songs like VLV and Clocks :dozey:

Clocks is bloody brilliant. Viva I agree isn't.

[Lore]

Clocks is good but overplayed, I don't think it's a bad song title though.

*gulp*

[Paulinha coldplay]

Guys, all the titles may sound a little bit weak or dull! But is just remember that they're just titles, without rhythm, without life... Patience!!:nice:

Hi dear :lips:


I think we're just joking anyway, we all know we can't judge a song by its title :)

[an angel]

I'm deadly :srs:

[Paulinha coldplay]

So true! :nice:
:kiss:

[Lore]

I'm deadly :srs:

NO U :angry:









I miss yossarian D:

[Destrokk]

I also, am deadly srs.

It's not like it's the end of the world, it will probably turn around and such.

[Lore]

Charizard? :awesome:

[Destrokk]

Why, yes :awesome:

[Megalomania]

Green Eyes is such a cheesy name too . . . In fact about 60% of Coldplay's song titles are cheesy.

[an angel]

I don't think Green Eyes is a cheesy title. Has cheesy lyrics though.

But nothing will ever be worse than Every Teardrop is a Waterfall. :freak:

[notlost92]

I didn't like Strawberry Swing for a title at ALL, but now it's one of my top 3 Coldplay songs :P

but yeah, when I read "Every Teardrop is a Waterfall" I was like :wtf:... in fact, I told my friend that Chris mentioned a few new song titles, and I was like "Yeah, there's 'Up with the Birds', and... um..." and pretended not to remember the rest cause they sound so ridiculous :lol:

[shipoffools]

Looking forward to the new single. Can't wait for the new album!

[Destrokk]

Oh hey yeah, Strawberry Swing is probably the gayest title ever, but it's my favorite Coldplay song lulz. :laugh3:

[rainplay]

I'm kinda hoping these aren't the actual titles... maybe they are just tricking us..?

[Hartroc]

Every Teardrop is a Waterfall is a TERRIBLE title.

I have a feeling this album isn't going to be...I don't know...It's just, the haters already think we're gay because we listen to Coldplay...Think of what they'll say when they hear about "Every Teardrop is a Waterfall."

Man, I'm worried.

And for the record, the only really cheesy Coldplay song names I can think of off the top of my head are "Reign of Love" and "Everything's Not Lost." The rest aren't that bad.

[ViVA Child]

Oh hey yeah, Strawberry Swing is probably the gayest title ever, but it's my favorite Coldplay song lulz. :laugh3:

I see nothing gay about strawberries on a swing

They should let me come up with song titles :charm:



and just because the song titles are ..... yeah

doesnt mean the songs will be.

Although everyteardrop is a waterfall is.... ummm.

[Hartroc]

Although everyteardrop is a waterfall is.... ummm.

This.

[Mojo Pin]

I don't think Green Eyes is a cheesy title. Has cheesy lyrics though.

But nothing will ever be worse than Every Teardrop is a Waterfall. :freak:
I'm gonna change your username to Every Teardrop is a Waterfall :mean:

[an angel]

You better not :disappointed:

[Mojo Pin]

You're still up :o

[an angel]

So are you :surprised: I'm sleepy though.

[nouratan]

At least they are better then neutron star collision , love is forever:p

[rainplay]

k, we are all reading too much into this... I don't
know about the rest of you, but I have faith that the boys are producing something amazing and maybe potentially better than Viva.. Can't judge a song by it's title.

[Chloe_Martin]

i think that 'Every teardrop is a waterfall' is a beautiful name its heart reaching already

[Chloe_Martin]

who gives a shit about the haters we rock and we know that we listen to be best music in the whole damn fucking world so dont worry about them

[Jonnyslice.]

At least they are better then neutron star collision , love is forever:p

That song isn't even that good :blank:

[ViVA Child]

At least they are better then neutron star collision , love is forever:p

....Why the fuck would there be snowflakes in an ocean any ways.

Remember that italian TV show.... where Muse were forced to lip sync... and they fucked with it and made a joke of it and took none of it seriously.

...Im pretty sure its like that.

I mean... you wouldnt expect them to write something brilliant and give it to ****light would you?

Talk about throwing pearls before a swine.

oh and your avi is ... :lol:
