Paradise is currently No.5 on the national ARIA singles chart, with Mylo Xyloto sitting at No.7 on the ARIA album chart.
Coldplay head straight to London from Sydney to perform at the Brit Awards ceremony on Tuesday 21st February where they are nominated in two categories - British Group and British Album Of The Year.
