Regional singles were released for United KingdomUK, Europe, Australia (mini-EP), Japan (enhanced), Netherlands (3-disc EP), France, and US. Promos were released for British and Americam markets. In addition a special 12" vinyl recordvinyl Limited Edition was available with 1000 copies in the UK. This release contained special remixes by Röyksopp."Clocks" is in the key of E flat Major. Built around a memorable piano riff, it features a minimalismminimalist soundscape of drums and bass guitarbass over an aura of synths and strings. Chris Martin's cryptic lyrics are thought to be about death and the transience of life. The song was recorded at Air Studios, London, at the very end of the sessions for "A Rush of Blood to the Head". It was the last song to be recorded and arguably forms the turning-point of the whole album; it was something of a departure from Coldplay's previous style. "Speed of Sound (single)Speed Of Sound", the first single from Coldplay's third album ''X&Y'', bears some similarities with "Clocks".The single cover depicts singer Chris Martin with his hands placed on his head. The drawing perspective is looking up from his ribcage. The cover was created by Solve Sundsbo. The song itself is a piano driven ballad."Clocks" was arguably the most successful commercial hit from ''A Rush of Blood to the Head''. Throughout 2003, it was featured in various commercials, movies and television programs; from WWE promos to the film ''In America''.In 2004 in music2004, "Clocks" won the coveted Record of the Year honour at the Grammy Awards, beating the likes of Eminem, OutKast and Beyonce.

HeadsUp Design Company Inc. designs and supplys contemporary giftware. Incorporated in February 2002, the company is based in Western Massachusetts with a European office in Budapest, Hungary. We sell directly to consumers via the internet and to retailers throughout the US, U.K., Europe and Japan. HeadsUp Design Company has come up with a hilarious spin on an old classic – the Cuckoo clock. In place of the cuckoo out pops one of a range of farmyard and jungle themed characters each with their own individual name and sound. For example, the cow version features Hannah Holstein in the MooCoo clock. Coo clocks are sure to create smiles. To ensure that the smiles last all night a light sensor automatically shuts off the characters when the room becomes dark. For those who like an encore, they also perform on command by pressing a button on the side of the clock.
