Coldplay have used their official website to announce that they are going to be giving away free copies of a new live album ‘LeftRightLeftRightLeft’, to every person who attends one of their remaining 2009 live shows (apart from festival shows).
The band, as fronted by Chris Martin, say that they are eager to show fans that they are grateful for their continued support and thought of this recession-busing way to give back.
Starting with the band’s first North American tour date, at West Palm Beach in Florida on May 15th, every fan attending a show will be given a free copy of the nine-track CD, which won’t be available elsewhere. Also on May 15th, LeftRightLeftRightLeft will be made available as a free download right here at Coldplay.com, for all fans (and for the same time period).
The ’LeftRightLeftRightLeft’ track listing can be seen below.
- Glass of Water
- 42
- Clocks
- Strawberry Swing
- The Hardest Part/Postcards From Far Away
- Viva La Vida
- Death Will Never Conquer
- Fix You
- Death And All His Friends
Anyone who attends a how and gets the disc, let us know how it sounds plehz.





I love Coldplay and I think this is so generous of them.
You’ll get one if you go to a show, get yours girl!
live album, huh? wonder if he introduces “viva la vida” with “we stole this song from someone you’ve never heard of, that’s why we thought we’d get away with it. zeppelin was lucky to not have the internet when they were big…”
i hated that song when it was the song of the summer last year. now it makes me so damn happy. i dunno why.
Why must you be so naughty Chris
Also, the songs are hypnotic. Play them backwards and they say “cha ching, give us moneh” over and over again.
i tried that, it was just chris martin sayin “i wish i was bono” over and over.
oddly bono heard a different message. “i want to be you, commmit career suicide with a crappy album so no one will notice.”
and…cuz it’s no fun to be nice (=
It’s been about a minute and a half since I said in plain Engrish… I <3 you Chris!!!
