A Hopeful Transmission



Those of you who follow my blog regularly already now that I am thrilled by the latest Coldplay's album beyond reasonable.
When the album was released I heard first two singles Paradise and  Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall and I liked instantly.

On a side note I have always been a fan of Coldplay but not a die hard fan I have all their previous albums but none of them is as good as Mylo Xyloto. So I downloaded the album from a file sharing site hence I stole it, unzipped in, played it in Windows Media Player and remained astonished.
In the next couple of days I was listening to it without a break, always on repeat. Every time I'd click a play a 45 minutes of happiness would begin. I simply had to have it, it would be a pity not to own such a masterpiece (on an audio CD).
At the music store when I bought the actual CD I felt another, much longer, wave of happiness. When I played it felt like I was listening to it for the first time. Of course the sound quality is much higher when you play the songs from the CD on your home stereo.




There are 14 songs on the album with 3 of them being really short instrumentals. The album opens with Mylo Xyloto which is the name of the album there is a lot of xylophone in it hence the album name Mylo Xyloto.
As a whole, the album is very harmonious and songs perfectly flow. As the band members said the whole album revolves around Paradise and Charlie Brow which were first two songs made for Mylo Xyloto. Both are impeccable, but if my opinion matters I'd say that Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall is much better than Paradise. Obviously it is my favorite song.
Listening to Coldplay's latest release you'll embark on a journey of  happiness, joy and struggle. Some songs will bring you down while some will lift you up. Even those sad songs like Us Against The World, Up With The Birds or a rebellious Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall offer belief in better tomorrow.
For the first time ever they made a duet. For their debut they have decided to recorded with Rihanna for a joyful song named Princess of China.
 
I wholeheartedly assert that Mylo Xyloto is an immaculate album because it offers hope.

Sada sam postao die hard fan. Album je fenomenalna, definitvno se mora imati i fizička, cd verzija. :) Sve je krenulo sa X and Y preko Viva La Vida do Mylo Xyloto koji je kao što kažeš fascinantan. Gledao sam gde će na turneju sledeće godine i već su svi koncerti raspordati za manje od dve nedelje.
