To follow up on my previous post, specifically...
took the train again to work with iPod in hand and have come to the conclusion that if you remove the long gaps of silence on some of the following 5 tracks, and maybe add some instrumental intro on the first track, you'd have a solid EP (or at least Side 1 of a solid Coldplay album)...
1. Twisted Logic
2. Square One
3. Kingdom Come
4. White Shadows
5. Fix You
The beginning sounds like they're doing Radiohead, and by the end they're doing U2. Sounds like Coldplay to me!

If "X&Y" had of been a five-song EP, released sometime last year and without the month of relentless hype (e.g. headlining the Coachella festival at the end of April), it would've been huge.
