May 8, 201412 yr Now don't quote me on this but, I think that the itunes where the user got this from, accidentally leaked the song and then itunes fixed it even though he still has it Quoted
May 11, 201412 yr Wow, after hearing the studio version this song has gone from 7/10 to 8.5/10 imo. If you want the studio version check out the GS leak thread.
May 11, 201412 yr So I'm on my third or fourth listen of the studio recording...and it's still not that good in my opinion. First off, it sounds a whole hell of a lot better than it did live. The production on the track is stellar to say the least, however Johnny's solo is drowned out by the other sounds in the final bridge. In fact, most of the guitar is faded or put as the background with the drums and synths taking the lead here. Lyrics still are a little bland, but Chris's vocals make them sound way more interesting than they are. Light vocodor is placed in the verses and chorus and it compliments the song very nicely! I originally placed it at a 5/10 but I'd say it's raised up to a 6/10 for the sound production alone. Very interesting song, not their best, but a good compliment to the Ghost Stories era. (Side note: i'm not sure how great it follows Midnight. I always thought a bigger track would follow Midnight on the record.)
May 11, 201412 yr Not in love with it upon first listen. It's a decent song, the last minute of it steals the show. Lyrics are a bit meh for me - overall I can imagine this will be an easily forgotten song on Ghost Stories.
May 11, 201412 yr I wish the guitar was turned up a little in the first chorus and bridge, but the rhythm section is mixed well.
May 11, 201412 yr I love this song man, so haunting. I can only say: fucking Jonny Boy! You did it again.
May 11, 201412 yr I love this song man, so haunting. I can only say: fucking Jonny Boy! You did it again. So amazing, Jonny is the man!
May 11, 201412 yr Listening the studio version for the 1st time, it's a bit more ghosty/echoing than the live ones. Jonny boy's guitar parts are essential to make Another's Arms work, IMO.
May 11, 201412 yr I think this is better then the live version. Agreed. This is still my least favorite so far off of Ghost Stories but listening to the studio version has definitely grown on me. The lyrics just don't do it for me, too cheesy for my taste.
May 11, 201412 yr Bad news is it's my least favourite out of the four studio recordings I've heard so far. Good news is I like it very much. SO PUMPED FOR THIS FRIDAY!!!
May 11, 201412 yr Agreed. This is still my least favorite so far off of Ghost Stories but listening to the studio version has definitely grown on me. The lyrics just don't do it for me, too cheesy for my taste. Well, the song gets boring fast.
May 11, 201412 yr Wow the studio version made me actually really like this song. I was indifferent to it before but it's just so haunting and beautiful . As someone has said its amazing we get a guitar solo AND a bass solo at the same time, last minute and a half are the best part of the song
May 11, 201412 yr Well, the song gets boring fast. Have to say that from 0:00 to 2:50 it's one of the worst Coldplay songs until now. Studio version is produced in an insufferable bad way, sounds like that boring and cheap charts-crap i use to skip on the radio :( the lyrics are even worse...
May 11, 201412 yr Well i think they just wanted to experiment with this album, experiment with sound and voices, but in this track they failed.
May 11, 201412 yr Just woke up so I obviously missed the another's arms leak, sorry to do this I'm not really sure how else to get it, could some please pm the song? Much appreciated if someone can! :)
May 11, 201412 yr Well i think they just wanted to experiment with this album, experiment with sound and voices, but in this track they failed. Yes, you're right! While i really like all the other songs so far this one doesn't really grow on me
