Coldplay: Oracle - Hi Oracle: Just read Roadie #42 's latest blog and he said: "They're most definitely in the zone right now. There have been tinkerings, though with some possible setlist additions in soundchecks. One of the Viva album tracks that only got a rare live outing has had a workout. I really hope it makes it back into the setlist, it's one of my all time favourite Coldplay live tracks (particularly the ending when Jonny goes off into full on guitar hero territory)." Is it Yes and Chinese Sleep Chant?! If there is any chance of Chinese Sleep Chant at London I will be over the moon! Thanks

Q. Hi Oracle:
Just read Roadie #42 's latest blog and he said:

Is it Yes and Chinese Sleep Chant?!

The Oracle replies:

I have been waiting for this question from the second the blog was published.
I don't want to spoil it because the song isn't actually in the set but may be as the dates go on. Yes was my favourite from Viva so we shall see if #42 and I have the same exquisite taste. I think it was only played once - or maybe twice due to the vocal being so very low.
I really honestly have to say that I doubt Chinese Sleep Chant will be played on this tour though...
