Coldplay: 'Religious Lyrics Come from School Assemblies'

2008-06-18T02:45:00.001-07:00

Coldplay singer Chris Martin says that the religious imagery in some of the lyrics on the band’s new album ‘Viva La Vida’ comes from school assemblies.

The band’s new album, which was released on Thursday (June 12th), includes a number of references to traditional Church of England teachings.

Asked in an interview with BBC 6Music, where they had come from, Martin replied: “Probably because I think you talk about things you saw a lot when you were a kid so we grew up with school assemblies, being constantly told about that kinda stuff - so it’s bound to come out.”

Martin walked out of another radio interview earlier this week when asked a similar question, saying that he didn’t want to talk about it.

As previously reported on Gigwise, Coldplay played a special show for family and friends at Wembley Arena in London last night.

The gig was a rehearsal for the bands forthcoming world tour, which begins in Los Angeles next month?

Harper-Collins CEO resigns amid increasing industry pressures

2008-06-09T13:39:00.000-07:00

NEW YORK - HarperCollins President Brian Murray is taking over the duties of chief executive after Jane Friedman resigned Wednesday.

She became the second publishing CEO to step down in recent weeks amid increasing pressure on the industry. The publishing company owned by Rupert Murdoch's News Corp. said Friedman's resignation was effective immediately.

Murdoch released a statement praising Friedman's contributions to the company and saying she is leaving to "pusrue other challenges."

Friedman began overseeing HarperCollins' worldwide book publishing in 1997.

Previously, she was an executive vice president at Random House Inc. and the Knopf Publishing Group. as well as publisher of Vintage Books and founder and president of Random House Audio Publishing.

"We are enormously grateful for her contributions over the past 10 years and understand her desire to seek new challenges at this point in her career," Murdoch said in a statement issued late Wednesday.

"My 10 years at HarperCollins have been far and away the most rewarding of my career and so it was not easy to make the decision to step down," said Friedman, who saw the company's profits more than double during her tenure while it entered new markets including India and China.

Murray, 41, has been president of HarperCollins since July 2007. He joined the publisher 10 years earlier and held several positions in the General Books Group until 2001, when he was named CEO of HarperCollins Australia/New Zealand. Murray returned to HarperCollins in the U.S. as group president in 2004 before his promotion to president.

"In his 11-year tenure, Brian has demonstrated an impressive track record of growing publishing companies," Murdoch said. HarperCollins said he has led the publisher's digital efforts, including the development of its direct-to-consumer marketing.

"I am looking forward to working with my colleagues to invest in and grow our publishing businesses around the world at a time when digital technologies are creating new opportunities to bring authors and readers together," Murray said.

Friedman's departure comes less than a month after Random House CEO Peter W. Olson stepped down. Olson held the job since 1998 but was hampered by losses at the unit of Germany's Bertelsmann AG amid a wider slowdown in book sales.

Borders Group Inc., the nation's second-largest bookseller, said this week it was eliminating nearly 275 corporate jobs as it considers selling off the company after losing market share to online retailers and discounters in a difficult U.S. economic climate.

Its larger rival Barnes & Noble Inc., which itself has had a difficult year, has assembled a management team to study the feasibility of a combination with Borders.

Barnes & Noble recently said it expects sales at its stores open at least a year to be slightly negative instead of slightly positive this year, based on lower-than-expected sales and a challenging retail environment.

Russian Communists Move To Ban Indiana Jones

2008-06-01T22:38:00.001-07:00

Members of Russia's Communist party are outraged about the group's portrayal in new movie INDIANA JONES AND THE KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL - and are calling for the film to be banned in the country.

The action blockbuster sees Cate Blanchett play the leader of a Russian communist organisation running amok in the U.S. in 1957 - and the picture has angered members of Russia's present day Communist party, who insist the movie provides an inaccurate portrayal of the political party in the 1950s.

Members of the party have spoken out against the film - insisting it will give young people a warped view of history - and called for the movie to be banned to prevent "ideological sabotage".

Communist party chief Sergei Malinkovich says, "Our movie-goers are teenagers who are completely unaware of what happened in 1957.

"They will go to the cinema and will be sure that in 1957 we made trouble for the United States and almost started a nuclear war. It's rubbish.

"In 1957 the Communist party did not run with crystal skulls throughout the U.S. Why should we agree to that sort of lie and let the West trick our youth?"
