(antiMusic) The free download of Coldplay's new single is being called a hit by Billboard magazine as the band's frontman announced during a radio interview that they would be playing a free show in Barcelona. Billboard declared with their headline that "Coldplay Download Freebie Proves A Hit" after they found the band's official site sluggish while trying to get their hands on the free download of "Violet Hill," the first single from "Viva La Vida," the band's new album that is set to hit stores on June 17th.

Yesterday the band announced that would be playing free shows at London's Brixton Academy on June 16 and Madison Square Garden in New York on June 23. Then today Chris Martin told Jo Whiley on BBC Radio 1 that the band would soon announce a free show in Barcelona.

Didn't grab the song yet? It's at coldplay.com. Now on a narcissistic sidenote, a blogger mentioned our headline for the article where we published the tracklisting for the album. We always take any chance we can get at humor and dubbed the article "10 Reasons to avoid the new Coldplay CD" Said blogger didn't think it was very funny and was so confused in anger that he or she called the article a review and credited it to the New York Times. It's not every day we get mistaken for the Times. Of course, we make stuff up we tell you we made it up. =) - the blog
