Matumona Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Chris and Rihanna sound awesome together, I'm really impressed. I didn't like the song when I first heard it, but now I've grown to like it.. Not bad at all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lore Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 As a Rihanna song, yes. As a Coldplay song, not so sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_gloaming09 Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 It's just a backing track, though. Who cares if it's auto tune? And the vocal distortion...well I don't know what the fuck is with that. I kind of dig it though. It would be interesting if they released a version (or a demo or something) without it. I think you need to edit this post. It's not a backing track... and it ruins the whole fucking song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eff-exx Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 tbh, rihanna sounded fine on it. I thought Coldplay's music was generally 'spacey'. Like when you listen to it, you can feel comfortable and it doesn't make you feel all noisy in your head. I don't really know how to explain it. Princess of China went against this thought I had of Coldplay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neonhorn22 Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 I just listened to it. Yeah, I really, really did not like it. Rihanna's part was WAY too prominent. Might as well have said it was Rihanna feat. Chris Martin. The synth sounds were like 80's fuzzy synths.....and not in a good 80's synth way. It's the first song that I actually couldn't make it through. I do not have any desire to listen to this song again. I'm very sad. ETIAW and Paradise have grown on me, but I just don't even want to hear this tripe again. EDIT: It blows my mind that they made MTM.........and this. They really ran the gamut, didn't they?

nextlife Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 One again, Coldplay does not use autotune. Please do not make statements unless you are informed. Yes they do, on the new record it is only obvious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FixYou* Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 I don't like it. It doesn't sound like a "Coldplay Song". Something is unusual, I don't know.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roxyfire Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 I had mega-low expectations of this. I'm pleasantly surprised it's turned out so well. I'm not sure what's with all the RiRi hate. She's a strong singer, who has a good following and can do more than one style of music. People seem to have a rather hipster attitude about things. I will say that I dislike all the extras production I've heard on many of the songs so far. Major Minus is a great song, except for the artificial sound of Chris and instruments. I feel like it goes with the theme of graffiti so it may not last. Overall, I'm expecting to be pretty pleased with the album as a whole. It's no Rush of Blood to the Head but that's ok. I find musical adaptation rather interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imke Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 It's more like Rihanna feat. Chris Martin. Can't find any Coldplay in it. I don't like it at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

genta Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 When i first heard it yesterday night, the only thing that passed through my mind was "Coldplay, are u kiddin' me?". The worst song in the history of Coldplay, no doubt! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneTwoThree Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 When I first heard it, I thought it was alright. But now that I've heard it in context with the entire album...it doesn't seem right. :S It's my least favourite song on the album. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovisa Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 No, I don't like it at all. It just seems... weird. Not Coldplay-like at all. And it's not even Rihannas fault (even though I can't stand her), I don't think I would've liked the song even if she wasn't in it. Very dissapointed.

KKOPPI Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 So basically; almost EVERYONE who likes it is a 'fake' fan. Of course we love Coldplay but hey don't let it BRAINWASH us, we decide if we like a song or not. I hate PoC, period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prospector Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 I love it! Those synths are amazing and the beat is cool too. It's my favourite studio version until now (I haven't heard the full leak, only Princess and the released tracks) PS: Rihanna doesn't add too much to the song, Chris could have done it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lore Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 I really like it now :uhoh: For me it's more of a Rihanna song and I think it's a good one, she sounds great and adds a lot to the song Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nancyk58 Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 I really like Princess of China - the build-up, Chris' and Rihanna's voices - alone and combined - the sound of it. I really like it now :uhoh: For me it's more of a Rihanna song and I think it's a good one, she sounds great and adds a lot to the song Didn't Chris say that he was thinking of Rihanna when writing Princess of China? So it is kind of a Rihanna song, and I guess that is why Rihanna has been allowed to sort of "dominate" that song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
