Coldplay’s long-awaited new album will finally hit stores on June 17th titled Viva La Vida. Singer Chris Martin was inspired by the legendary Mexican painter Frida Kahlo to name the album after seeing one of her art works with the phrase painted on it. Es una vergüenza that most people don’t know who Frida Kahlo is, considering that the album title has been mistakenly referred to as a Ricky Martin inspiration. Yea, remember Ricky’s Gringolandia break out song “Living La Vida Loca”? Dios, we still can’t get it out of our heads.

The new record sounds like Coldplay’s most Latin-inspired album to date. Back when they were recording last year, the band revealed that they were highly inspired by Hispanic influences after doing some recording in Latin America and Barcelona, Spain. Looks like Coldplay is getting in on the Latin loving. [Rolling Stone]
