Coldplay: Speed Of Sound
Coldplay: Speed Of Sound (Parlophone/EMI)

Having recently gone top of all world-wide download charts, Speed OfSound, released from forthcoming album X&Y,this is typical of a song thatwill hit the UK singles chart with a surge.

Initially,their huge fanbase will secure it’s pole position, followed by the middle-ground and then the casualbuyer. Imagine a graph with it’s position at the top, then unlike previousofferings which tailed off gradually down to zero, this will drop quiterapidly.

With it’s predictably radio-friendly lush production, it is by farthe worst Coldplay single to date.
