Release
In September 2006, it was announced through a question and answer section at Coldplay.com that "White Shadows" would be the fifth single released from X&Y in Australia. This would have made it the sixth song overall to be released from the album, following the limited releases of "The Hardest Part" and "What If". Weeks later it was reported on the band's official message board that "White Shadows" would not be the next single. This came not long after they decided not to release a DVD of a June 2006 performance in Toronto. No reasons were ever given.
Although "White Shadows" was not released as a worldwide single, the song was released as a radio-only single in Mexico in June 2007 to promote the band's Latin America Tour.

Famous quotes containing the word release:
“The steel decks rock with the lightning shock, and shake with the
great recoil,
And the sea grows red with the blood of the dead and reaches for his spoil—
But not till the foe has gone below or turns his prow and runs,
Shall the voice of peace bring sweet release to the men behind the
guns!”
—John Jerome Rooney (1866–1934)
“Come, thou long-expected Jesus,
born to set thy people free;
from our fears and sins release us,
let us find our rest in thee.”
—Charles Wesley (1707–1788)
“If I were to be taken hostage, I would not plead for release nor would I want my government to be blackmailed. I think certain government officials, industrialists and celebrated persons should make it clear they are prepared to be sacrificed if taken hostage. If that were done, what gain would there be for terrorists in taking hostages?”
—Margaret Mead (1901–1978)
