I just wanted to say, after 5 years of being part of the Coldplay fandom, first on Coldplaying, now on Coldplaying, Twitter and other platforms, a wonderful thing happened today: Coldplay followed me

On this day exactly 5 years ago, a young and innocent person who was just getting really into Coldplay wanted to sign up on a forum called Coldplaying. Faced with the question of what to pick as a use

Today exactly 5 years ago, I joined the Coldplaying community and I don't regret that that. To be honest, it's probably one of the best things that have happened in my life! I had never thought I woul

Had two indirect Coldplay reminders today,

1. saw a puzzle with a Flower of Life pattern on a Christmas market

2. came across a video that used an excerpt from the same Muhammad Ali speech used by Coldplay (the last 2 sentences)

This might sound nerdy, but I like puzzles. I might have to hunt a Flower of Life one down x

I finally got my Spotify statistics!

 

The top tracks are not really that important because I don't skip most of the Coldplay songs, so they pretty much could have picked any 3 and called them the top 3.

Hey look, I'm in the top 1% of Coldplay fans!! Doesn't surprise me. And I'm not quite sure what Rihanna is doing there because I literally have the 4 versions of Princess of China and thats it.

All right, rest of the "interview" was crap though imho...what the hell did I just listen to ? Those two hosts can talk their dirty stuff on public radio without Chris sitting next to them, right ? What a waste of his time...

 

it was definitely not a conventional interview :p though i'd honestly rather listen to that than ten minutes of Chris having to talk about what it was like to perform the Superbowl and work with Beyonce (which is also a waste of him time i think :lol:)

I had a Coldplay dream last night!!

 

It started out with Coldplay coming to record a music video at my university for their new single from the Kaleidoscope EP. I didn't know they were coming to record a video until I rode my bike over to a building and I saw Debs and Phil and all four band members! I talked to them, and they let me listen to the new single, and it sounded pretty good! They then asked if I wanted to be in their music video, and I said yes! They needed a whole bunch of people, but they said I could be at the front. They handed out 10-foot long streamers of all different colors, and everyone lined up in order of color: red, orange, yellow, etc. The song started, and the band started running throughout the campus and we followed holding our streamers so they would fly in the wind behind us. Overall, it was a pretty good video! There was more to the dream, but I can't remember it all.

last time Chris posted songs on twitter people weren't super thrilled with his picks. thoughts on this round? :P

 

Immortal by J Cole ft. Jay Z - Alright. I expected much worse when I saw that name but it actually wasn't too bad. The song it sampled though is much better in its original form though. No need to throw on a boring uninspired recycled beat on top. It's even worse because he had to sample someone else's song and couldn't think of anything better himself. At least you could do something interesting with it, which he did not (looking for a real remix people? "Magnets" remix by Jon Hopkins, original song by Disclosure ft. Lorde. LIT.) 2.9 stars/5

Come With Me Now by Kongos - Pretty good actually. I forgot about this song for a while, I don't know how. I was confused and thought it would be some boring electropop song but I got surprised when I heard it was one of my long forgotten songs... Nice song. Unique. Not spectacular but good. 3.6 stars/5

Numb by Sons of Sonix ft. Melanie C - I like it. Not anything too spectacular, but I generally like this style of music unlike many on the forum. It's that new sort of 2016 house style with catchy choruses falling between the massive soaring EDM bass drops of 2012 and before or so and the less energetic but more catchy choruses of the years following, that also features this new sound that sounds like a vocal processed wayyyyy beyond recognition and used as the melodic element of the chorus/bass drop section/whatever you wanna call it. I listen to BPM on SiriusXM satellite radio and a lot of the music on there sounds somewhat like this, yet it's also different. The sounds used in this track sound pretty unique even compared to the rest of this style of music nowadays. They also did a great job with the panning, you can actually notice some of the rhythmic elements in some points jump from the left to right channel and back. I give them props for that. For how much I actually like it, I know of more of this new 2016 style house songs and I like them much more but this is still good. To be honest I really wish the EDM scene right around 2012 would come back, those songs sounded absolutely beauteous with the flood of goosebumps you get along with the beat drop (best example I can think of is "Don't You Worry Child" by Swedish House Mafia) but as with everything music changes. Oh well, music in 2016 in general has been a comeback from 2015 and maybe 2014 in my opinion. It's gotten better. 3.6 stars/5

Romeo and Juliet by Dire Straits - The best of his selection. I dig that 70s/80s soft rock style, and overall it's such a beautiful song. Love the guitar part, the drum, the subtle yet effective bass, the vocal... it all works so well together. The song flows so well. Songs like these prove you don't need electronic elements to make a masterpiece in a song (I'm sure we all know that very well already). Beautiful stripped down effectiveness. Not really much more to say. Keeping it simple is a good thing. 3.9 stars/5

Stay Another Day by East 17 - Also a very touching and gorgeous selection. I enjoy the '90s ballad-y style pop songs like this, despite the lyrics being a bit cringy at times. Sounds a bit dense in some sections, but that's the nature of some of these songs I guess... Still like it a lot. 3.7 stars/5

I thought I'd hear much worse music, glad I got (to an extent) pleasently surprised! :)

This is such cool dream!
