Here’s an overdue hat tip to Coldplay for giving away a live album for free to everyone going to their concerts over the summer and the rest of us out here in internetland. The album is a nine track live EP called ‘LeftRightLeftRightLeft’ and you can download it for FREE!
This is essentially old news, apparently the band starting giving everyone who went to their gigs over the summer a copy of ‘LeftRightLeftRightLeft.’ I only just found out about it the other day when I stumbled across it on the coldplay website.
The giveaway live album features favorites like ‘Clocks,’ ‘Viva La Vida,’ and ‘Fix You.’
“Playing live is what we love. This album is a thank you to our fans – the people who give us a reason to do it and make it happen.” Said the band in a statement.
Some people don’t like live albums, but I enjoy hearing the atmosphere. Call me whatever you like, but there’s something powerful in hearing thousands of people, who might not ordinarily choose to sing out loud in public, singing their hearts out to some near ethereal track like ‘Fix you.’

Ohh I love Coldplay. Viva la Vida is excellent.
I like concerts too, as long as the people around me aren’t barfing or 10′ tall. ^^

Thanks for the heads up Simon- didn’t know about it. I LOVE Coldplay.
Earlier this year they played in the charity concert Sound Aid to raise money for those who lost their homes and lives in the devastating fires in SE Australia and the Queensland floods.
Even though they played the night before and had a concert that night they performed with such energy. I was so thrilled to be there :)
