They had us wrapped around their little fingers during their Australian visit earlier in the year.
We loved them. And they loved us so much that they decided to go for a stroll down King Street in Newtown to film the video for ‘A Sky Full Of Stars’. And we loved them so much that we sent the track to No.2 on the ARIA charts.
Australians have always had an affinity for Coldplay; only their debut album ‘Parachutes’ failed to crack the No.1 spot down under.
So expect similar success for their just-announced live version of ‘Ghost Stories’, which is perfectly timed to drop before the silly season.
Three versions will be released… a CD/DVD edition, a DVD/CD edition (in DVD casing) and a BluRay/CD edition.
The DVD will feature music videos of the singles lifted from the LP, along with the band’s intimate live performance in Los Angeles back in March.
The CD comprises live recordings from a variety of the band’s shows throughout the ‘Ghost Stories’ campaign, including ‘Magic’ and ‘True Love’ from their Enmore Theatre gig back in June.
‘Ghost Stories Live’ will be released in Australia on Friday November 21.
