• Reviews

  "There are eight tracks here, most of them genuinely new, and while there have been a few hints that this is material too edgy to get onto a Coldplay album, the truth is that these songs are pretty much interchangeable with those on Viva."—TimesOnlineTimes Online: Prospekts March Review

  "A genuine reason for shyness crops up on 'Lost+', one of three rejigged album tracks. It's not that the short extra verse, on which Jay-Z dramatises the treachery of success, is bad - it's just that the rapper sounds horribly out of place on an organ-led Coldplay number."—GuardianGuardian: Prospekts March Review
