Like i've found that long albums are a challenge to get to the end.. for example Arcade Fire's The suburbs album goes for like an hour and 10 minutes. I find it hard to listen to the same artist for long periods of time... like some people really don't like X & Y due to the fact that it is a very long album... but everyone has their own opinion about that kind of stuff, i can see myself loving this album none the less

    Aha, I get you now. I think that if the album has coherence and cohesion, there's nothing to worry about. Moreover, there's no need to listen to albums in a row. You can do one half album now and another half later today or maybe tomorrow... I don't worry for that. And moreover, in today's music singles and standout tracks are much more important that album's coherence and unity, so general audience won't give a damn if the album is too long or not: they'll just download a few songs and scrap the rest. Sad but true
  3. I'm really looking forward to hearing the wholde thing. Thanks for that
  4. I don't like that preview that much. Let's hope for the full song to be better...

    You're right about the ATYCLB icons, I forgot about them but I think it is kind of similar. I think it's interesting, I'm looking forward to hearing the whole thing (20 hours or so from now), I think it will be different than this short excerpt (I remember the 30 sec previews of NLOTH that didn't reflect the whole songs for me).
  8. I like what I've just listened here
  9. sounds pretty good, hopefully it sounds epic in context of the album
  10. From what I've read on Coldplaying.com, it seems that many people dislike it, 'cause it doesn't sound like Coldplay.
  11. yeh i've listened to the full song a few times today and it sounds amazing! Bit different but epic all at the same time!! Much better than every teardrop imo...
  12. I prefer Teardrop, to be honest. Paradise is certainly ok, I would have no trouble listening to it again, but I probably wouldn't choose to. It has the same feel of a couple of songs on Rush of Blood - names escape me though - with that swaying chord progression, and I like that, but it feels like it's that era of Coldplay being reworked by a male Rihanna. Not that I think that's an innately bad thing, but of the new stuff I've heard, it's far from the best. Charlie Brown certainly leaves Paradise choking far behind in its wake. Someone on Coldplaying.com said it was a song designed for radio-play, but they didn't listen to the radio for a reason, and I think I'm somewhere in that as a non-radio listener.
