Coldplay’s fourth album, due out on June 14th, will be called Viva la Vida. Singer Chris Martin chose it after seeing the phrase, which means “long live life,” on a painting by Mexican artist Frida Kahlo, who endured polio, a broken spine, and chronic pain for decades. “She went through a lot of shit, of course, and then she started a big painting in her house that said ‘Viva la Vida,’” says Martin. “I just loved the boldness of it.”

Of course, Frida Kahlo will not be the first name that jumps to most peoples’ minds when they hear the phrase. “Everyone thinks it comes from Ricky Martin, which is fine. I have absolute respect,” says the singer, who gave Coldplay its original name, Pectoralz, and named his children Apple and Moses. “I’ve been through this before, naming something or someone and everyone saying that ‘That’s a terrible name’. But then saying, ‘Well, fuck you, that’s what it’s called, and I’ll be proved to be right eventually’. So when Viva la Vida came along, I was kind of annoyed because I’m going to have to try and convince everybody of this, but it just felt right.”

Check back later this week for the full report from Coldplay’s studio sessions for Viva la Vida, and for more insight into some songs that are slated to appear on the record, click here.

I'm not too fussed on the title, if that's true, makes it sound like a novelty album.

RunForTheHills · 18-03-2008, 08:12 PM

Holy...

I'm a little shocked, lets just say.
Its still all like a dream. I havn't read it yet. Time to do that now.

Well after reading it, I suppose its genuine. Its called Viva La Vida then. Wow.
And Chris is right, he's gonna get a lot of stick calling the album that. I liked Famous Old Painters better.

And the release date seems genuine enough.

If it's true about RS reporting sessions from the studio, then I'm excited.
I dunno, this is weird.

Lore · 18-03-2008, 08:17 PM

if this is true... it's an awful name...

hope it'll be a good album.. can't wait
