Empy Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Well more uptempo than amazing day. [emoji106] So, can you tell us a bit more about how your source got to hear the single? Doe he/she work with the band, at a record label, at a radio station etc? And how trustworthy is he/she, is it someone you know very well or someone you don't know at all apart for that chat you had about the single?

ov3la Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Not questioning your credibility (just curious), how did this source come about this information? Do they have connections to the band? Did they have a conversation with them? The source had a friend in India recorded the song with his phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empy Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 The source had a friend in India recorded the song with his phone. Well, that answers part of the question I asked a couple of posts above, but can you vouch for this person or is he/she someone you don't know very well?

Empy Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 This source is very reliable. [emoji2][emoji106] Thank you for answering so quickly! I'll go back into hibernation mode until friday, because if your source says "a couple of days" and the industry has set friday as the worldwide new music release day than we'll definitely get something thursday (youtube audio) or friday (full-on single release with availability on iTunes, Spotify and other sources that count towards the charts).

The Archer Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Hurts Like Heaven 2.0 anyone? Or DLIBYH 2.0? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empy Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Hurts Like Heaven 2.0 anyone? Or DLIBYH 2.0? I'd prefer a Hurts Like Heaven 2.0, because while DLIBYH is a fine song, it's way overproduced. But ov3la told us to expect something more rock-ish and less MX/Viva-ish, so perhaps it won't be a MX2.0. If I combine happy and rock together I immediately think of U2's Beautiful Day, so I reckon their new single will be a something like that but in Coldplay style.

coldplaykb Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 The person who recorded the song had a little chat with the band. Is he part of the actual thing, or was he just a fan? Not trying to question you, but why would they tell a fan the release date? Maybe Chris said sometime in October and he is just assuming the first week? I just don't want to get my hopes up to be disappointed. Then again, it builds suspense. I guess we will just have to wait and see. If you are right, it will be a great day. No work, so I have all day to listen to it over and over! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I combine happy and rock together I immediately think of U2's Beautiful Day, so I reckon their new single will be a something like that but in Coldplay style. Beautiful Day is the ultimate pop/rock song by the ultimate pop/rock band. Who doesn't like that tune?! But I agree - Hurts Like Heaven was astoundingly brilliant. While I'm much warmer to the studio version than I had been I still absolutely relish the live performances of that song with Jonny in particular giving the performance of his life. Coldplay have never sounded so aerodynamically pop and rock! It was slick without sounding superficial (*cough* Miracles *cough*) and was unbelievably energetic and invigorating. Took some great 80s influences (Springsteen, Cure, even John Squire of The Stone Roses pop guitar...Jonny's inspiration for picking up the guitar) and produced that song. How I wish they could come up with the same trick again. Even if they came up with something close to that on their new album I'd be delighted.

I like DLIBYH but it's super overproduced.. Amazing Day confirmed on AHFOD, at least indirectly, by producer Rik Simpson: Told ya so every1 I honestly don't doubt him one bit.

[emoji2][emoji106] I don't mind waiting for the album, I just really want a new song! Don't get me wrong, I love Amazing Day, but the quality isn't the best and I want an actual studio version. Also, I think we are all hungry for this particular single, as we have seen what the video will look like. Though it will still be very different and new once we actually see it. Here's to some official news soon! Rik's teasing is killing me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's to some official news soon! Rik's teasing is killing me. I would almost be willing to guarantee the reception to Amazing Day will be much better come the studio recording. For the life of me, I just could not enjoy Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall live. I thought it was an awful song to close on, but yet I fell in love with the studio version almost immediately. Quality can do a lot for a song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeddingDom Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 HLH is Coldplay at their best! I doubt they will top that but I hope the new single is as aerodynamic as HLH :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldplaykb Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Rik indirectly said amazing day was on the new album. [emoji52] No I know that. I just meant that the new single will probably be released before Amazing Day will be. Otherwise they would have released it already. I just want a new studio track, is what it comes down to lol.

getithom Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 oh let amazing day not be the last song in the album.. coldplay has always delivered on the closer. also i want to first listen to it on the context of the whole album. I remember when they premiered AIMH, there were a few people who went, "That is definitely the closer." I wouldn't worry too much. To me, it doesn't sound like a closer, and I personally can't think of any time (aside from Amsterdam in 2001) where they played the album closer before the official album release. I feel like it would make a nice fit somewhere in the middle of AHFOD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
