Oceans is longer than I thought. That will be interesting to listen to. And O is 7:46, that will surely be an epic finale to conclude Ghost Stories. So when can we expect the iTunes preview?  |

And to make a sum of it: the total length is 42:37. 42 (!) minutes! I see what they did there :P |

An article describing the songs on Ghost Stories(in Spanish) (read the rough english translation below)
Un recorrido por el álbum de la banda británica, ‘Ghost Stories’.
La ‘tusa’ de Chris Martin, líder de Coldplay, por su separación de la actriz Gwyneth Paltrow, se nota en el nuevo disco del cuarteto británico, ‘Ghost Stories’.
Esto se nota en temas como Magic y Always in My Head, Ink, True Love, Midnight, Another's Arms, Oceans, A Sky Full of Stars y O.
Desde la carátula y de todo el concepto gráfico, es fácil intuir la diferencia con el colorido y alegre ‘Mylo Xyloto’, su anterior disco: en este, el blanco y negro y las imágenes lavadas enmarcan impecables ilustraciones de Mila Fürstova, que parecen recrear momentos de amor y de desolación de una pareja. Igual ocurre con la energía interna del disco, más reflexiva, compuesta de más texturas y muy poco del beat bailable de otros discos.
Tal vez sea solo la canción A Sky Full of Stars, y probablemente también Ink, las que complazcan a los fanáticos del lado fiestero de Coldplay. También hay canciones que se transforman progresivamente, como Midnight, que empieza con efectos similares a los del músico británico James Blake, con un aura de profundidad que va convirtiéndose en una onda más rítmica.
Oceans tiene una curiosa similitud con Echoes, de Pink Floyd: un pulso permanente que se sostiene a lo largo de toda la canción acústica, y que conecta retratos de esa melancolía de Martin.
En True Love parece desatarse de la forma más literal: es una historia de amor completa.
Coldplay confirmó seis conciertos
La gira de promoción, planeada para este año, ha tenido sus traspiés en medio del momento emocional por el que atraviesa Martin. Hasta la fecha, solo se conocen seis conciertos. El primero será este viernes 25 de abril en Colonia (Alemania).

REDACCIÓN
(Rough English Translation) (Post courtesy of Gai from coldplaying.com)
A WALK THROUGH THE BRITISH BAND ALBUM , ' GHOST STORIES ' .
The ' cob ' Chris Martin , Coldplay frontman , by its separation from actress Gwyneth Paltrow is seen in the British quartet 's new album , 'Ghost Stories' .
This is noted in subjects like Magic and Always in My Head, Ink, True Love , Midnight , Another 's Arms, Oceans , A Sky Full of Stars and O.
From the cover and the whole graphic concept , is easy to see the difference with colorful and cheerful ' Mylo Xyloto ' , his last album : in this , the black and white images framed and washed clean Fürstová Mila illustrations that seem to recreate moments of love and desolation of a couple. So is the internal energy of the disk, more thoughtful , more textures and made little danceable beat the other disks.
Maybe it's just the song A Sky Full of Stars, and probably Ink, which please the fans partying side of Coldplay. There are also songs that are progressively transformed, as Midnight , starting with similar British musician James Blake, with an aura of depth that is becoming a more rhythmic wave effects.
Oceans has a strange similarity to Echoes of Pink Floyd : permanent pulse that is sustained throughout the acoustic song , and connects that melancholy portraits of Martin .
In True Love seems detached from a more literal way : it is a complete love story .
Coldplay confirmed six concerts
The book tour , planned for this year, has had its missteps amid emotional moment that crosses Martin . To date, only six concerts are known. The first will be on Friday April 25 in Cologne (Germany ) .

I´ve got a slight intuition that we won´t see it in Germany :P
German TV is always very cautious when it comes to screening interesting shows.
They know how to keep them for themselves :P

And I hope the Netherlands will also broadcast!
But they also had a broadcast of the gig at The Hague. I have high hopes!
