The 30 year-old artist’s perfectionism has made him an insomniac. Martin is determined that the fourth studio disc from Coldplay, Prospekt, will have the same success that X&Y had in 2005. The singer continues to write new material until he is satisfied with the end result.
A source wrote on Coldplay’s official website, "Chris just keeps on writing. He has shown me five new songs in the last two days. I seriously don’t know when he sleeps."
The source added that Coldplay is planning a tour to promote their new songs, and that tension is mounting among the band members as the February release of Prospekt comes near. The source said, "The ups and downs come thick and fast at this point in proceedings."
