Viva la Vida PART 2

Of the sessions for "Viva La Vida" a lot was left lying on material that Chris Martin would rather cut off from the album release. This 8 songs, there is now a separate EP entitled "Prospect`s March"; very clever idea.
But the version of "Lost" with the ingenious rap (!) By Jay Z is simply brilliant. The same goes for the vocal version of "Life in Technicolor" which is enhanced by the singing again herllich. As a "light version" of Viva la Vida, however, a slightly weaker song like "Rainy day", more filler emerges as a useful supplement. Overall, the EP is very varied, musically top and can convince ..... bitter downer alledings .... the promised duet with Kylie Minogue missing .... shame! But still ... 5 stars for this great addition!
