    Coldplay今年年底要发两张EP:

    1. 《Lost!》

    配合新单曲 "Lost!" 的数字EP,将于11月10日发行,共4曲,除去"Lost!",其余曲目未知。

    2. 《Prospekts March》

    这张8曲EP将包含6首新歌,发行日未知,可能也是11月,这些歌曲都是在乐队创作《Viva La Vida...》的时候写的,曲目如下:

    'Life In Technicolor II' (不同于《Viva La Vida...》中的 "Life In Technicolor" ,这是一首完整的歌曲)
    'Postcards From Far Away'
    'Glass Of Water'
    'Rainy Day'
    'Prospekts March'/'Poppyfields'
    'Lost +' (可能是与Jay-Z合作的Remix版)
    'Lovers In Japan (Osaka Sun mix)'
    'Now My Feet Won't Touch The Ground'

    EP的封面将取自《Viva La Vida...》封面的原画作者Eugene Delacroix的另一幅画。

    Dear Coldplay fans and friends,

    First of all, thank you for the incredible year you have been giving us so far; from asking for our songs on the radio, to buying an album, to coming to a show; we owe you in a big way. As audiences you have been incredibly awesome to play for, and I might add that your singing has been in excellent form.

    In the spirit of trying to do things a bit differently and keep everything fresh, we are going to do a few musical moves that we have not previously attempted. Firstly, in a few weeks we are going to release a version of Lost! which has a guest experience on it in the form of JAY-Z. Then in November, we are happy to announce we are putting out an E.P. called PROSPEKT'S MARCH. It contains five songs that were not finished back in May (our deadline for Viva La Vida) but that have just been completed. They are:

    1. Life In Technicolor ii (which is a song)
    2. Postcards From Far Away
    3. Glass Of Water
    4. Rainy Day
    and
    5. Prospekt's March / Poppyfields
    6. Lost +
    7. Lovers In Japan (Osaka Sun mix)
    8. Now My Feet Won't Touch The Ground

    We are very proud of these and are pretty excited to release them. They have been the subject of many discussions and arguments; some might be considered too catchy or too heavy for Coldplay songs but in our minds they complete the VIVA LA VIDA picture.

    If you want to get the E.P. you can download it or order it from the internet or you can get it in a special edition of the album called "Viva La Vida: Prospekt's March Edition." The version of Lost with JAY-Z on it will also be on this. We really hope you enjoy it and we look forward to singing these songs with you in cities across the world.

    thanks for reading - sorry about the handwriting.

    Love CHRIS
