the_escapist Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 A brilliant song. From the snippet we heard. It's going to be very high up in my chart of favorite Coldplay songs. Probably right next to Fix You. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Nails Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Just finished the interview 5 minutes ago. This song made me cry and I never have that on first listen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paddy Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I think I might have to mentally prepare myself before listening to O (reprise) if this is anything to go by Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddy Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 So this is Fly On, the hidden track? It's absolutely beautiful. No, this is O. If you listen to the interview, they interrupt this snippet to talk about the hidden track (Fly On). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BiggerStronger Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 No, this is O. If you listen to the interview, they interrupt this snippet to talk about the hidden track (Fly On). Oh I thought O was the ambient part after. Chris sings "...Next you know they gone, fly on" in that snippet so I thought Fly On was the hidden track prior to O.

42JTR Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 This song is so emotional and so personal... beautiful... Maybe the new ''Amsterdam'' simply beautiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris sings "...Next you know they gone, fly on" in that snippet so I thought Fly On was the hidden track prior to O. From the way they were talking about it the bit with the lyrics is O. It would be a bit weird to have the hidden track before the title track (Fly On>O). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jc90 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I haven't had many emotional responses of this magnitude to songs. O just vaulted itself to one of my top Coldplay tracks let alone Ghost Story tracks or songs by anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batman Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Oh god, this song... all the songs! All these emotions, now with the interview explaining them all with the background stories... feels like someone very close to me is hurting and pouring his soul into me. When the album comes I can't decide whether to blast it through the windows so that everyone will hear it, or if I'll sit quietly on my bed with headphones on.

Guest howyousawtheworld Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 This song is so emotional and so personal... beautiful... Maybe the new ''Amsterdam'' simply beautiful. Indeed. Wow. Just a snippet but the best snippet of any Coldplay song I've heard. It's like I've softly been delivered a heart. Enough to make even the most soulless man shed a tear.

florida Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 I cried for 20 minutes after first listen. This album is the best work they have ever done. I can't wait to go from start to finish on the journey of Ghost Stories. Just beautiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skypala Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Less raw, more beautiful. Probably won't become a single, but will most likely become my favorite closing song, even beating out Amsterdam. It's becoming more and more apparent to me that Ghost Stories is Coldplay's magnum opus-- their greatest achievement both critically and commercially. We may have ourself the equivalent of Achtung Baby on our hands here and potentially a few Grammys as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
