Coldplay - Viva La Vida

     I always found Coldplay's music interesting and... different from anything else i've ever heard. Songs like "Yellow", "The Scientist", "Speed Of Sound", "Fix You" and "Clocks" quickly became hits and were, in short time from their appearance in top of the charts from all over the world.

     After three great albums ("Parachutes", "A Rush Of Blood To The Head", "X&Y"), they released in june their fourth album: "Viva la Vida or Death And All His Friends". In an interview for "Entertainment Weekly" Chris Martin, the band's vocalist said:

 We're slightly terrified about this record, because we've thrown away all our tricks. The truth is, we tried to find new ones.
     I think they had nothing to worry about. Most of the songs are simply perfect! My personal favorites are "Viva La Vida", "Strawberry Swing", "Cemeteries Of London", "Lost" and "Violet Hill". These are all the tracks:
  1. Life In Technicolor
  2. Cemeteries Of London
  3. Lost!
  4. 42
  5. Lovers In Japan/Reign Of Love
  6. Yes
  7. Viva La Vida
  8. Violet Hill
  9. Strawberry Swing
  10. Death And All His Friends
     You can listen full "Viva la Vida or Death And All His Friends" album (tracks 1-10) for free in the music player widget from the sidebar.

About - Blog

     Hi guys (and girls)!

     All that you'll find on this blog is my personal opinion about, well... anything.

      As the name suggest, every article will be given one of these "verdicts": Funny/ Very Funny/ Hilarious (if a game, book, etc. is funny), Hot/ Smokin' Hot (if a girl, movie, etc. is hot), Good/ Great/ Awesome (if a song, car, etc. is good), or Not Really/ Not/ No Way (if something has many positive reviews, but i think that it actually sucks).

     Of course i don't expect you to agree with me every time. Comment whatever you want via the comments form.

     In the end, i'd like to apologise if i make any mistakes while writing. I'm not from any of the countries in wich english is the native language. Any way, i say that i'm a decent english speaker, but everyone makes mistakes. Even typing ones, so don't be too harsh, ok?

     P.S.: I enabled comments moderation not because i want to control what you say, but because there are some people that just don't know to be decent, and i don't like to see offensive language here (to me or anyone else). That should not stop you making that kind off comments, though. I just might accept them.

     P.P.S.: It is most likely that this page will constantly change, because i can't decide what's best to write here. From now on, whatever i think it should be added will appear as posts, beneath this one.

Contact

     I think it's best to give you an email adress where you can write to me, but i'm gonna do even more than that - i'll give you also a messenger id, so we can chat in real time whenever we want. So, there we go:

     funny.hot.good.ornot@gmail.com (this is on google, it's pretty obvious)
     funny_hot_good_ornot@yahoo.com (this one is on yahoo)
     funny_hot_good_or_not@yahoo.com (This is the messenger id where you can contact me. It works only with Yahoo! Messenger and MSN Messenger clients, so don't try to add me if you're using other clients. You should also know: if you use Yahoo! Messenger, just type or copy my id (without @yahoo.com) and click next - if you use MSN, you must specify the ending (@yahoo.com))

      You can use these emails to simply contact me, or to send me anything you'd like to see on my blog.

     P.S.: You can find me online on messenger usually between 5PM-11PM (See the clock on the sidebar to know what time is at me)

     P.P.S.:Your emails and messenger ids will never be published or sold. Important: Please, try not to spam!!!
