'Violet Hill', the first single from Coldplay's new album, which was made available as a free download on Tuesday, was downloaded over 600,000 times in its first 24hrs online

Despite the site crashing under the weight of demand, the band have revealed. The song will only be available for free online for a week. However, after that you will get a second chance to get it for free, as the NME are giving it away on 7-inch vinyl with their 7 May issue, backed with exclusive track 'A Spell A Rebel Yell'.

The band's fourth album 'Viva La Vida' will be released worldwide on 12 Jun.
