two albums that could easily be produced within the next year or so. I hope they are around for a while.. but, these things dont last forever..

i think they are only contracted to do one more album
1= parachutes
2= AROBTTH
3=Live 2003 Album
4= X+Y

that means they're only contracted to do one more album

5= Best Of?!?!?!?!?!

Hehehe just thought i'd stir things up a bit there!

I wouldn't count Live 2003 as an album :/

kimberlina · 21-04-2005, 05:11 PM

hmmm i reckon it might do, i think when robbie williams did live at knebworth it counted towards his....i guess it just depends- was the album a bonus or was the dvd the bonus thing on live 2003 or were they a package? that might be how they get round it?

Jan · 21-04-2005, 05:13 PM

I hope it's not counting as an album

The 'bang-bang-bang-bang' is supposed to be the sound of the World Trade Center floors collapsing...

now listen to it again

kimberlina · 21-04-2005, 05:16 PM

who knows?! i reckon it might do coz they still had to do promo etc for it and they still made money out of it just like a normal album....but then most of the reviews were for the dvd not the album, so maybe it wont count...?

Isn't that a bit farfetched

?

keep in mind its not an official Coldplay authorized book.. I mean there are two out there.. same title.. diff authors.. but Coldplay didnt contribute to either one...

as for the Live 2003 counting as an album, I doubt it.. i was a bonus cd.. but then again.. record companies are shady that way.. maybe Chris was right.. this is their last album.. #5 just might be the best of.. plus bsides never released???
