two things.

the confetti is now shaped as M's and X's. This has to mean something important, it keeps cropping up EVERYWHERE.

also.

I think the line "It's us against the world" is LP5's "Now my feet won't touch the ground."

Chris says it in Us Against the World and Major Minus.

I've only had a chance to watch the vids of the new songs, but I am so impressed with everything: the songs themselves, the light show, even the costumes, which I was initially not loving. And I've realized how much I missed Coldplay! Am so excited for the new album and am so glad I'll get a chance to see them on their festival run!

very positive,although iam sure that the crowd if its just a coldplay-concert would cheer and sing along much more :-)

Coldplaying@Hogwarts · 06-06-2011, 01:05 AM

...so I've been watching the concert and listening to the new songs.

I love Coldplay all over again. I mean, this new stuff... it's BRILLIANT.

Hurts Like Heaven is ridiculously catchy and kind of reminds me of Green Day's early stuff. (And the "heart as a weapon" line always makes me think of the cover of American Idiot. Always.)

Major Minus is quite possibly my favorite of the concert-first bunch. The tune is awesome, the riffs in it are smashing, the lyrics... I am in love with the lyrics to this song. Especially "those crocodiles taking over the world." That is an epic lyric. I'd love this to be a single – I'm thinking the next "Clocks."

Cartoon Heart (I REFUSE to call it Charlie Brown) is anthemic and awesome and has wonderful lyrics (I'm fond of "I took a car downtown to where the Lost Boys meet" and "they gave me what I need/to set me free") and could easily be the next "Viva La Vida."

Us Against The World is beautiful. Sublimely so. Someone said it reminded them of Leonard Cohen – I agree 100%. It's like if "Hallelujah" and "Til Kingdom Come" had a song baby. Just beautiful. And then Will comes in and then Guy and Jonny and.... ohhhhhh, so beautiful!

I already loved ETIAW, so the live version was just icing on the cake for me.

...so yeah, I LOVE the new stuff, and demand a release date for LP5 (which will most likely be titled Major Minus or MX.)

Any questions?

I agree about that song's name... Charlie Brown isn't a bad name... But CARTOON HEART just sounds so beautiful... and suites the song better I think. I sort of hope they see that fans like the latter name better and rename it!

Dunno if any one else has posted this... but here are some pics from the live show: http://www.swr3.de/specials/rockamri...12acd0552f8fcd

Thanks for the pics! I also prefer Cartoon Heart.

DieProspekt · 06-06-2011, 01:19 AM

And yeah I Hurts Like Heaven is my favourite also. I really hope its a single. Like last time Cemeteries of London was my favourite off the whole album but it never got a video... :-(

the_escapist · 06-06-2011, 01:21 AM

can someone read what does it says on Guy's jacket?

Agree about "Cartoon Heart" being the better name. But yeah -- that song absolutely makes me weak in the knees. I love all the new songs, and hearing them like this has made it exceptionally harder to wait for this next album.

The entire concert was just spot on -- especially Chris' voice. Goosebumps. I just... -- I can't even describe the love and pride I feel for them right now. Off the charts.
