Description
'A Rush of Blood To The Head' has sold almost 10 million albums worldwide (5 x platinum in Australia), gained 12 international chart entries and so established Coldplay as one of a very select group of truly global British rock bands (19 million units sold worldwide across all albums, singles and DVD).
The first single 'Speed of Sound' was the number one most added at Australian radio after just two days. The track has also given the band a Top 10 entry in the US singles chart, the first British band to do so since The Beatles.

By ratcheting up their guitars and still singing about everyday themes, Coldplay are recasting their nerdy-student Britpop as Important Rock Music without sacrificing the homespun vibe..." - Grade: B+ Spin (pp.99-100)

The 3rd album by Coldplay but not the stongest.
It starts with the powerfull Square One and ends with the beautifull acoustic hiden track Til Kingdom come.
The singles Fix You, Talk, Speed of Sound and the Hardest Part are a delight.Its a great album,but if you buy this then you must buy the first two!

Comments about EMM/CAPITOL Coldplay - X&Y:
I really like this Cold play album. It's got some great songs. I really like 'Fix you', 'Talk', 'Speed of sound', 'The Hardest Part' They're so nice to listen to; they're really good lyrics and they really mean something. I love the way they talk about everyday experiences in their songs - it's really means they sing to their audience and that's everything. I think they're one of the best bands out at the moment. They're really good and they definitely get my 5 star approval. I hope they bring out more albums. Thanks for the music.

Comments about EMM/CAPITOL Coldplay - X&Y:
Coldplay has once again proven their ability to mature, to venture into unexplored boundaries, to attempt different sounds, and yet retain their roots, their signature sound.
Some critics disapprove of this album, but i simply Love it!
Fix You, Talk, Speed of Sound, and a gem that i discovered only after i bought this album, Swallowed in the Sea.
My favourite coldplay album!
