Deal Details

What a waste of time, sounds nothing like any Coldplay song that they have ever made, and did not play it last week in Toronto’s concert.

Dude, it was free.  Chill out…

uh - sure they played it. Will sings it during the acoustic bit when they go into the crowd (after Chris sings The Scientist)... you must be quite the fan…

Will Champion the drummer in case you’re also wondering who Will is (and Chris is the lead singer)

and this isn’t really new.. they offered this song early July for those that signed up with the website.

Pfft.
This isn’t a deal.

It would be a deal if Coldplay actually PAID ME to download the song.

/agreed with gente-boa .... i would have to be paid money to download and listen that. lol
to all those who are fans, I’m sure you all have album so I don’t know how hot this really is…

I dunno. I kinda like Coldplay but not enough to rush out and get the album the second it comes out. A free download is nice in a “try before you buy” kind of way.

this is an exclusive download song - it is NOT part of the album - hence the free download… sure its not what you call a ‘top 40’ release but I seriously doubt that was their intention.. Its more a of ‘B’ side release for free.

You will be spammed after you download. It’s not really free, you sell them your email address.

It sounds a lot like something The Band would have done.  Since it’s so short, I suspect it was an idea for a song that never really got developed.  If the drummer sings it during concerts, then perhaps it was a song written for him, a la “Yellow Submarine” and “Octopus’ Garden” for Ringo.
