[nancyk58]

I just voted - thanks Jenje for posting this news plus drawing our attention to the vote for favourite Coldplay song. :thumbsup:

[howyousawtheworld]

Please vote Politik everyone! It doesn't get much radio play!

[Kroket]

Please vote Politik everyone! It doesn't get much radio play!
I voted Politik too :)

[Raphaele]

[the_escapist]

[silver.lining42]

voted! oh I love the hype of waiting to listen to new Coldplay stuff on the radio!!!

[The Final Track]

Why do they want my phone number?

[Christa42]

Wow, thanks Jen, voted!

edit, should we make this a "sticky"?

[Ms Magpie]

Yay! Voted for Politik as well :)

[Arantza]

Just voted!

[mayurshikotra]

[busybeeburns]

once the poll is over we can turn this into the listening party thread ready for Friday! :)

[Christa42]

so 12 lunchtime across the pond and 7 am pancakes and bacon NY time? sorry im not good with numbers

[Pink]

so 12 lunchtime across the pond and 7 am pancakes and bacon NY time? sorry im not good with numbers

I'm pretty sure that's right.

[Christa42]

Thank you

[busybeeburns]

so 12 lunchtime across the pond and 7 am pancakes and bacon NY time? sorry im not good with numbers:wink3:

[Jenjie]

Why do they want my phone number?

I'm assuming its because they may want to ask you to talk about your favourite song on the radio. A couple of days before VLV was released Ben jones had a Coldplay slot and he talked to fans about their favourite Coldplay songs.

[Violet]

Question: When I put in my vote, am I required to give them a phone number?

[Cyan Kat]

Why do they want my phone number?
I wondered that too
I really hope they don't call me :anxious:

[howyousawtheworld]

I wondered that too
I really hope they don't call me :anxious:

You can hang up you know. They don't ring you up live on air.

[RunForTheHills]

They're collecting information for their 'Coldplay Fan-Base-Depopulation Agenda'. Whoever voted just made a huge mistake, sorry guys :\

[Juanma]

voted for GPASUYF :D

dont know why

[The Final Track]

I'm assuming its because they may want to ask you to talk about your favourite song on the radio. A couple of days before VLV was released Ben jones had a Coldplay slot and he talked to fans about their favourite Coldplay songs.

That would be mighty awkward.

[Cyan Kat]

They're collecting information for their 'Coldplay Fan-Base-Depopulation Agenda'. Whoever voted just made a huge mistake, sorry guys :\
whats that supposed to mean

[RunForTheHills]

^ It was supposed to be a joke.

[Cyan Kat]

I keep saying stupid stuff today
I should really stop :blush:

[RunForTheHills]

:P No worries, to be fair I'm in a bit of a trolling mood today :uhoh:

[busybeeburns]

Absolute Radio now playing Spies! :o

[Jenjie]

well it is one of Ben's favourite Coldplay tracks :D

[taameen**sparks**]

Voted for Politik!
Except now I think I should have voted for Violet Hill...:(

[iPsy]

I don't know why...but I voted for Violet Hill. I don't know if it is my favourite song. It might be...hahaha! I couldn't possibly choose one song.

[Jenjie]

only the rest of today to vote if you haven't already

[the_escapist]

Voted for FIX YOU. my fav song ever

still gives me chills

[howyousawtheworld]

I don't know why...but I voted for Violet Hill. I don't know if it is my favourite song. It might be...hahaha! I couldn't possibly choose one song.

Even though it was the first song from Viva La Vida we heard it's still a song that I never get bored of. It still sounds like the newest of songs. It's not my favourite song in the whole world but there's something about it. As though it's been preserved in vinegar all the time!

[lutzno]

i voted for amsterdam, it wasnt even a proper option

really surprised that people are saying violet hill! easily in my bottom 5 coldplay songs, but each to their own

[Jenjie]

only the rest of today to vote if you haven't already

I lied. For some reason this morning I was convinced it was thursday but it isn't its wednesday :cry:

22 hours left to vote

[busybeeburns]

your bums on fire!

[MartinFan]

I voted Fix You... So IF they call anyone, and it happens to be ME:lol: I am in Florida, so what time shall I turn my phone on???

I guess it's 7am, now that I re-read the listening party title:)

[l0wxo2]

Voted for Shiver! I will already be up at 4 AM on Friday anyway haha.

[MasoKnight]

Voted Politik.

[rainplay]

Fix you :heart:

[the_escapist]

I wonder which song will win...

[Denise]

Yay for Absolute Radio, I always listen to it at work :D

And I'm going to vote for Politik since it really happens to be my favourite Coldplay song :escaping:

[SueDeNimes]

This might be a good thread to direct you to this, please read it:

Thanks!

[lndnsky]

I've voted Trouble. I know it won't win but I just love that song!

[Juanma]

It's going to be all over the net illegally anyway so by stopping it on here you're just putting out a tree in a massive forest fire.

[SueDeNimes]

It's going to be all over the net illegally anyway so by stopping it on here you're just putting out a tree in a massive forest fire.Then just don't post them here and see it as a way to help the site not getting into trouble for copyright infringement... :)

[howyousawtheworld]

I don't have any intentions of posting or downloading the song illegally so don't worry.

[Jady]

I. Am. Flippin. Scared.

[busybeeburns]

Anyone being a dirty stop-up tonight?

[MasoKnight]

Anyone being a dirty stop-up tonight?

Would love to be, but staying up til 6:00 am with a job interview at 9:30 might not be the brightest idea. Hopefully the song will put me in a good mood for the interview, though!

[Open, Politik]

This brings back memories. When Violet Hill came out I went college, on the bus halfway through and turned around and headed home. And then I was listening to XFM or Radio 1 and I switched to another because I didn't know which one was earlier and then I only got the end of Violet Hill. After all that. phhhh

Lets hope that don't happen tomorrow, but I wont listen to it live though.

[Empily]

What time is this song coming out in England :wtf:

/n00b :wtf:

[nancyk58]

From Will's announcement on Coldplay.com: .... in the UK where it'll be released on the stroke of midnight between Saturday 4th and Sunday 5th June.

[howyousawtheworld]

What time is this song coming out in England :wtf:

/n00b :wtf:

On the radio it will be between half 11 and midday tomorrow.

[Ultravioletlight25]

Am I too late to the party-- Is it too late to vote for my favorite CP songs. I couldn't find the link :embarrassed:

I am so excited about tomorrow. Is 12pm BST, 6:00 A.M. central time? Looks like I will be up very early. Bring it :D

[Hartroc]

It comes out at 1:00 am where I am. :dozey:

[Albie]

Cool! I was listening to Radio One a few hours ago, but it just made me more nervous :lol: so I stopped.

[oldmuckers]

I remember going through all these same things right before both Speed of Sound and Violet Hill came out. This only comes every three years and i'm loving every minute of it!

I have a feeling that this song (and this album) are going to be very special and when people look back at this time in the band's history it will be seen as a major turning point. I think they take it to the next level with this one...

[anacaren08]

So which radio station are you guys gonna listen to first? Im checking all the stations right now to make sure they work and hear their announcements.

So BBC1 or absolute radio?

[laga]

I think I'll listen to BBC 1, but I might change my mind on the spot :P

[anacaren08]

I wanna listen to absolute just cuz they r going to put the songs that were voted for favorite coldplay songs :D

[laga]

You have a point there :). It's just that listening will make me more nervous and anxious :lol: I wish I could just start listening when they start playing the song :P

[anacaren08]

Haha true^

My phone is getting overheated! Oh no.

[anacaren08]

Ok going to sleep now. And will be getting up soon, to a wonderful coldplay song.

Im gonna listen to absolute radio, cuz bbc hasn't even mentioned coldplay.

[l0wxo2]

I feel the same way! So excited! And great to be able to share these special moments with Coldplayers all over the globe!:D

[valypan]

The track will be first played after 11:30 BST , right? Any one idea which radio station is most likely to premiere it?

[ipodthermic]

Probably BBC1

[busybeeburns]

R1 not BBC1

Coldplay are not quite big enough to release a single via the television yet :p

[valypan]

Probably BBC1

Yeah I am sticking to BBC1 as they explicitly write they are going to be playing Coldplay classics followed by their new single, starting 11.00 BST.

[valypan]

[Mimixxx]

I wonder if Chris and Jonny are going to pay a sneaky visit to Fearne before heading to Germany...you know Chris can't resist a flirt :P

[Fairycat101]

I'm not sure where to post this, but 5fm in South Africa is going to be playing it as well, sometime this afternoon. you can listen live on their website: http://www.5fm.co.za/

[WS]

Someone is going to record the song? Im in class now and at 12:30 i dont have access to a computer

[Denise]

You can listen to it whenever you get home from coldplay.com :)

[WS]

Thanks! Im need to go! Good luck!

[coldplay_is_louve.]

Morning, everyone! It's one in the morning here and I'm joining the party wait. :D

[valypan]

Morning, everyone! It's one in the morning here and I'm joining the party wait. :D

With a lot of coffee no doubt :) Welcome!

[coldplay_is_louve.]

Haha, that's for damn sure. Going to go make some more and get my breakfast. :D '

Exciting times! :dance:!

[coldplay_is_louve.]

Two and a half more hours! :dance:!

[Message]

And I'm already listening BBC Radio 1... Still 2 hours to go, but anyway.

[coldplay_is_louve.]

I'm nervous and excited all at the same time. :freak: This is a big day, we finally get to hear what LP5 will be like.

[Mimixxx]

Yeah me too...I'm more nervous than anything

[coldplay_is_louve.]

I am too, actually.

Hearing someone say it's "Radiohead-like" was good.

But all this news we're getting from the boys and from the media implies a dance sound. :wreck:.

[Mimixxx]

Really? More Radio DJs?

[coldplay_is_louve.]

Yeah. I've seen things on Twitter that imply a dance sound. But eh, they could wrong.

[luispastor14]

Yeah. I've seen things on Twitter that imply a dance sound. But eh, they could wrong.

That's right. "The Sun" even mentioned White House Mafia... :shocked2:

[coldplay_is_louve.]

could BE wrong. I'm tired. :P

[LoversInJapan]

Oh my..
I woke up every 2 hours whiel I was sleeping. Now I was browsing around on my pc and it suddenly crashed and didnt have any sound anymore after that. What a nightmare =(
Luckily was able to fix it after an hour, so Im ready for listening.

*crosses fingers for no problems anymore*

[Kroket]

I've been nervous all morning. I feel so silly to feel this way for a song.
But still, it's nothing compared to how my belly acts the day of a concert! Gonna get that feeling soon though, YAY :D

[coldplay_is_louve.]

Oh my..

You might want to get off Coldplaying after the single drops. :D My computer never crashes, but I'm sure it will in a couple hours. :P

[coldplay_is_louve.]

I've been nervous all morning. I feel so silly to feel this way for a song.


Don't worry. You're most certainly not the only one who's apprehensive. My stomach is in tighter knots than it's ever been right now. :uhoh:

[silver.lining42]

I hope they are wrong... Change is good but Coldplay doing dance music will shock and disappoint me

[coldplay_is_louve.]

Different is good!


Just... not that kind of different.





... And I'm still not a big fan of these lyrics.

[harrisonrules]

so where can we listen to the debut of the song?
i know it will be on coldplay's official site but i mean when it first comes out.

[l0wxo2]

2 AM where I am and I don't think I have ever been this anxious! Ahhh 2 more hours...

[coldplay_is_louve.]

It's coming out at 12, and it's supposed to play on the radio at 12. So it doesn't really matter which one you pick. :D

[silver.lining42]

I hope bbc r1 will play it at 11:30! The site says: "The following UK stations will all be playing the track sometime after 11.30am BST" so one can hope

[SueDeNimes]

so where can we listen to the debut of the song?
i know it will be on coldplay's official site but i mean when it first comes out.It's all in here:

Basically it'll be luck I guess to pick the station it'll be played at first but I think it'll only be a matter of minutes. :)

[coldplay_is_louve.]

I hope bbc r1 will play it at 11:30! The site says: "The following UK stations will all be playing the track sometime after 11.30am BST" so one can hope

That's true. Someone needs to tell us if they hear it! We should have someone on each station. :D

[LifeInTechniKarel]

Waiting for the song?
But still ten seconds time to help a belgian fan??
Help me to win a ticket for ROCK WERCHTER to see COLDPLAY!
Just go to HERE (http://tinybas.nl/werchter) and 'like' or 'vind ik leuk' just above the picture!
You would make me very very very happy!
Thanks!

Listening to Absolute Radio. Playing Radiohead. :D

[LoversInJapan]

You might want to get off Coldplaying after the single drops. :D My computer never crashes, but I'm sure it will in a couple hours. :P
Hahahaha, well I did found out something is wrong with my driver. But I wont be touching anything anymore, until the single drops!
Slept like crap, waiting for hours now. Do not touch =p

[silver.lining42]

ok Fearne Cotton said she'll play the song a minute before midday

[ARushOfLove]

Good morning everyone! :smug:

I have no idea what to expect.

[coldplay_is_louve.]

Hahahaha, well I did found out something is wrong with my driver. But I wont be touching anything anymore, until the single drops!
Slept like crap, waiting for hours now. Do not touch =p


Haha, good.

So did I. Woke up at one o'clock.


Coffee is my best friend right now. :D

[Blue Nails]

Listening to Absolute Radio. Playing Radiohead. :D

Yep same here. :)

[coldplay_is_louve.]

They just said on Absolute Radio they're going to play ETIAW at 5 of.

Shiver's playing now. :D

[thahasara]

Shiver on Absolute :D

edit: Almost first!

[Blue Nails]

They started the top five on Absolute now, with Shiver

edit: ok so no point in trying to be first here :lol:

[coldplay_is_louve.]

Looks like Absolute is our best bet right now.

Listening to BBC6, trying to see if they'll say when they'll play it.

[coldplay_is_louve.]

DP!

[silver.lining42]

Looks like Absolute is our best bet right now.

Listening to BBC6, trying to see if they'll say when they'll play it.

True, with the Coldplay top 5, Absolute makes the wait even more exciting!

[coldplay_is_louve.]

Yes! :D

BBC 6 is playing something awful right now, and they're not even mentioning Coldplay. :thinking:.

[coldplay_is_louve.]

Oh my god, what's with all these DPs? :angry:

[l0wxo2]

Radio 1 saying they are playing it 10 til noon and they are going to start playing Coldplay songs at 11:30.

[iPsy]

11:50am on Radio 1. Listen from 11.30am for past Coldplay.

[coldplay_is_louve.]

BBC 6 isn't even mentioning it.

They're playing Scottish bands. :thinking:.

[coldplay_is_louve.]

Radio 1 is the earliest!

[silver.lining42]

I feel a bit silly obsessing over sth that will happen in 1,5 hr. But the feeling is so wonderful..!

[silver.lining42]

Radio 1 is the earliest!

OK so I think I'll stick to absolute till 11:30 and then switch to bbcr1!

[IneedYou23]

Im gonna listen to Radio 1. I find their stream to be the clearest.Absolute's seems a little fuzzy to me.Im nit picky so it could be just me haha.

[coldplay_is_louve.]

Radio 1's not playing anything I like, and even though they said when they'll play it, I'm still listening. :wacko:!

[Fairycat101]

This is so exciting! It's amazing that I am sitting halfway across the world, but have the websites for Xfm, BBC R1 and Absolute Radio all open and waiting...

[coldplay_is_louve.]

1 hour, 20 minutes until we hear it! :D

[ARushOfLove]

1 hour, 20 minutes until we hear it! :D

:dance:

[axe]

[coldplay_is_louve.]

[Craigie-J]

I have no idea, they probaby just got sick of waiting, I'm sure they were n ot allowed to play it yet though! ... I hate that, and not just because I didn't hear it either :(

Tell us how it sounded, Jesus man, we want more than "it is good"

Ahhhhh...glad it's good but "too much like VLV" worries me.

Speed of Sound was too much like Clocks and X&Y followed...:disappointed:

[coldplay_is_louve.]

If this new song sounds like what they're playing on Radio 1 right now, we've got some problems.

[harrisonrules]

YouTube - ‪Every Teardrop is a Waterfall - Coldplay‬‏
i died laughing when i heard this... what an epic song

[Craigie-J]

Ahhhhh...glad it's good but "too much like VLV" worries me.

Speed of Sound was too much like Clocks and X&Y followed...:disappointed:

You are not an X&Y fan?! :o

[Mimixxx]

You are not an X&Y fan?! :o

Nope. Not at all...so much so I didn't go see them on the Twisted Logic tour.

[eff-exx]

.....

hahahahahhaahha

[Craigie-J]

If this new song sounds like what they're playing on Radio 1 right now, we've got some problems.

HAHAHA ... I really loved that tbh! :D ... but no, not Coldplay please!

[coldplay_is_louve.]

HAHAHA ... I really loved that tbh! :D ... but no, not Coldplay please!

Sorry!

I just don't want it to be that genre. Coldplay doesn't fit that at all.


OOH, KILLERS. :D

[Craigie-J]

Nope. Not at all...so much so I didn't go see them on the Twisted Logic tour.

Wow okay, that is quite incredible. It really isn't that bad is it? :(

What was your first cp gig then?

[Craigie-J]

Sorry!

I just don't want it to be that genre. Coldplay doesn't fit that at all.


OOH, KILLERS. :D

Yeah, if it is like this song then I'dd be a happy man! :)

[coldplay_is_louve.]

Yeah, if it is like this song then I'dd be a happy man! :)

:lol:!!!

[valypan]

Listening to BBC1 now...so excited!

[coldplay_is_louve.]

Ooh, I can feel the knots getting tighter. I'm so freaking nervous.

[Craigie-J]

I got tears but I'm not a Waterfall
I got tears but I'm not a Waterfall
I got tears but I'm not a Waterfall

[coldplay_is_louve.]

Can a mod edit the title and put the BBC 1 time in? :nice:

[Mimixxx]

Wow okay, that is quite incredible. It really isn't that bad is it? :(

What was your first cp gig then?

It's not terrible...and there are songs from it I like, but I never ever listen to the whole thing. It was just an album that played on the success of AROBTTH. Speed of Sound whilst catchy enough is just so uninspired! Which is what I'm worried ETIAW will be like.

I was too young to see them during the Parachutes era, so I saw them for the first time just after AROBTTH came out, then again once they toured it properly. Then, not at all during the Twisted Logic tour, then absolutely loooooads since VLV came out :P

[beckie42]

Just so y'all know, on Absolute Radio they are counting down 5 Best Coldplay songs according to a poll that was done on their website during the week.
We've had Shiver so far... And ETIAW will be played "just before 12.." :)

[valypan]

X&Y gets a lot of bad rep but I actually loved it...That´s when I really started being into Coldplay seriously and that was when I first saw them live. *sweet memories*

[l0wxo2]

Does Radio 1 play every genre of music? I have never listened to them before and I think it's awesome the wide variety of music they play, even though I don't like all of it LOL.

Yeah, if it is like this song then I'dd be a happy man! :)

Well, at least we know ETIAW won't have lyrics like "I got soul but I'm not a soldier";)
I like "All These Things That I've Done", and those lyrics work, but, as Bill Bailey pointed out, they make about as much as "I got ham but I'm not a hamster.":P

[coldplay_is_louve.]

Just so y'all know, on Absolute Radio they are counting down 5 Best Coldplay songs according to a poll that was done on their website during the week.
We've had Shiver so far... And ETIAW will be played "just before 12.." :)

Radio 1's playing it at 10 of. That's the earliest we've got. :nice:!

[Craigie-J]

It's not terrible...and there are songs from it I like, but I never ever listen to the whole thing. It was just an album that played on the success of AROBTTH. Speed of Sound whilst catchy enough is just so uninspired! Which is what I'm worried ETIAW will be like.

I was too young to see them during the Parachutes era, so I saw them for the first time just after AROBTTH came out, then again once they toured it properly. Then, not at all during the Twisted Logic tour, then absolutely loooooads since VLV came out :P

Hmm, seems like a bit of a shame to miss the whole tour for that though right? Do you regret that btw? I'd have given anything to see them on that tour actually... but you are right it was definitely playing on the past success 100%... and very uninspired for sure :(

But you have been a fan for a loooong time then?!
I thought you were only about 21 or 22 though??? :S

And you must love VLV then right? ;)

[l0wxo2]

X&Y gets a lot of bad rep but I actually loved it...That´s when I really started being into Coldplay seriously and that was when I first saw them live. *sweet memories*

DITTO. I saw them perform for the first time right before X&Y came out. It's not my favorite album but I still liked it.

[coldplay_is_louve.]

An hour from now, we'll be listening. :freak:.

[valypan]

Absolutely love Adele Set FIre to the rain..playing now on Absolute radio...now playing on BBC1 *LOL*

[axe]

Yeah mimi. Completely agree with you.

[Coldplay3277]

Sounds too much like Viva La Vida???...dear god the only song i dont listen to on Viva Album :(

[coldplay_is_louve.]

I love Fearne Cotton. :wacko:.

[silver.lining42]

[blue_girl]

im listenning the Absolute Radio..

The song was already out on an intalian radio and someone posted the youtube video with the song :\ :disappointed: come on .. dont post that here, you will break all the excitment here.. :\ :(

[Craigie-J]

Well, at least we know ETIAW won't have lyrics like "I got soul but I'm not a soldier";)
I like "All These Things That I've Done", and those lyrics work, but, as Bill Bailey pointed out, they make about as much as "I got ham but I'm not a hamster.":P

Haha defo! :D

But a fucking quality tune all the same right?! ;) ... let's hope for something great today!

[vitaamine]

Nope. Not at all...so much so I didn't go see them on the Twisted Logic tour.

I'm with you on this one. Even if I went to see them on the Twisted Logic Tour, I really dont like X&Y... (or it's my least favorite if I can say so ;))

[Craigie-J]

Absolutely love Adele Set FIre to the rain..playing now on Absolute radio...now playing on BBC1 *LOL*

It's on Radio 1 now :P ... and it is really beautiful!

[coldplay_is_louve.]

Adele rocks.

[silver.lining42]

[silver.lining42]

Adele rocks.

I do regret it a bit actually, cos it seemed like it was an amaaaaazing tour. But it's not like I was like "right I'm not going cos I hate the album" like I was making a stand against it. I just went off them altogether. :(

And yes, since the beginning, I've been here for 8 years :uhoh: :P

I'm 26, but thanks! :D

[valypan]

Just confirmed again..BBC1 will play the track at 11:50 BST.

So Italians played it? Of course they did! Who would respect wishes of Coldplay, they are not Silvio Berlusconi!

[Cleggy]

OK, I'm here...6:11 AM here :P. Surprised I could even load this page!

So it's been played on Italian radio? WTF...

Chelsea, some stupid Italian radio show took it upon themselves to just play it way early! One person heard it from here, and that is it, too late to do anything about it, hope they get sued! :angry:

[LifeInTechniKarel]

I'm trying to find ways to kill time!

I have an idea!
Help me to win a ROCK WERCHTER ticket to see COLDPLAY!
Just go to HERE (http://tinybas.nl/werchter) and 'like' or 'vind ik leuk' just above the picture!
You would make me very very very happy!
Thanks!
