Quote:
Coldplay has titled their fourth studio album Viva la Vida and set a June 17 release date for the record. Singer Chris Martin says the title (Spanish for "long live life") came from a painting by Mexican artist Frida Khalo. "I just loved the boldness of it"
Martin elaborated, saying, "Everyone thinks it comes from Ricky Martin, which is fine. I have absolute respect. I’ve been through this before, naming something or someone (his children are named Apple and Moses) and everyone saying that 'That’s a terrible name.' But then saying, ‘Well, f**k you, that’s what it’s called, and I’ll be proved to be right eventually.' So when Viva la Vida came along, I was kind of annoyed because I'm going to have to try and convince everybody of this, but it just felt right."
Some of the new songs slated to appear on Viva la Vida include "42," "Death And All His Friends," "Cemeteries Of London" and "Life In Technicolor."
