I think that if it was a song for Global Citizen,they would have said so cause why not.Furthermore they said they won't be performing in Global Citizen unless required so i don't see why they would make a new song specifically for Global Citizen.I mean like with all the new clothes and set...

See? Why were you being so pessimist? Let's hope AHFOD also satisfies your wishes, bud [emoji6]

 

let's not talk before we have the whole thing... low profile is the way ;)

Huh, isn't the song called Amazing Day? [emoji1]

yeah, if it were a charity single, I would imagine Chris promoting the hell out of it before they played it. Like, we're gonna play a new song, its on itunes, all the proceeds go to global citizen, but we didn't see that.

 

on the other hand, its a bit weird promoting new stuff at all when the supposed focus is on the issues global citizen wants to address. perhaps chris just wanted to give an exclusive to them?

 

I still say its an LP7 song but thats just a guess.

I hope that host didnt start this trend....

Hey I like it! lol

Yeah, I was thinking of that Lou Reed song haha

It could be one of those tracks they play live to both see how it feels before an audience and to consider whether or not they want it to be on the new record. Anyone remember the band's indecision over "Moving to Mars"? I remember watching an interview of some sort before Coldplay played at the iTunes festival in 2011 (I think that was the year), and when asked about MTM, Jonny answered that they were still thinking about whether to include it on the record or not. As we know, it didn't make it, but it took them a while to figure it out, and that could also be the case with a track like this. So, we'll just have to wait and see!

Ahhhhhhhhhhh I just want the whole album now!!!!!

These things happen even at charity events. At Live Aid in 1985 at Wembley Stadium U2 were intent on playing and indeed promoting their new single Pride (In The Name Of Love). But that didn't happen. What happened of course goes down as one of the abiding memories of that historic day when they played a 9 minute version, with Bono pulling a girl gasping for a bit of room out of the audience and danced with her, meaning they didn't have enough time to play Pride!

 

Anyhow, Coldplay playing a new song at a charity event will gain greater exposure for Coldplay in the music press and in turn gain greater promotion for the actual charity itself.

 

Would be nice to hear a clearer version of the new song though. But I like it - not great but not terrible. It's cheesy but we can all indulge in a bit of cheese from time to time can't we? But it's lovely to hear Jonny playing his distinctly glittery bits on his trusted Suncaster (I'm guessing?)....that model and Jonny go back quite a bit. Read more about it here

So bland it physically hurts.

It didn't float my boat.

They changed the lyrics when they were soundchecking, didn't they?

Didn't notice a lyric change (of course, I also didn't hear the whole thing from the soundcheck). From what I could hear from the soundcheck snippets, it was just harder to hear what Chris was singing, perhaps from a (maybe purposeful) lack of diction and emphasis. If there is a noticeable difference between the soundcheck and concert performance, I'm only able to discern from the snippets.

He didn't collaborate with her. He sang a song with her on stage.

It just seems like the lyrics sound different from the ones sung at the soundcheck.

Had to google Ariana Grande. That's how much I give a shit about modern chart music today. By the looks of things I certainly won't be clicking on that duet.

I'm pretty sure what they did is classified as a collaboration.

"the action of working with someone to produce or create something"

wow so close minded

 

she has a great voice, really powerful, she's really talented and you "just by the look of things" decided that it wasnt worth of your hearing

 

oh well thom yorke is pretty ugly im gonna stop listening to radiohead now

collaborating and singing a song on stage are two, completely different things when it comes to music

 

collaboration: two people writing stuff

 

chris didnt write a thing

Well, not sure that song gives away anything about the new direction of AHFOD, it kinda sounds like a song off of Ghost Stories mixed with Christmas Lights, nothing we haven't heard before.. Just a nice, ok song without any novelty in my opinion. Nice to listen to but not one that would turn me into a crazier Coldplay fan..

What I think the lyrics were, I'm not sure of the start of the third section:

Sat on a Roof Named Every Star

Shared Every Bruise and Showed Every Scar

Sat on a Roof Your Hand in Mine (Singing/Saying)

Life Has a Beautiful Crazy Design

And Time Seems to Say Forget the World and Its Weight

And Here I Just Wanna Stay

Amazing Day

Amazing Day

 

Sat on a Roof Named Every Star and

You Showed Me a Place

Where You Can Be Who You Are

And the View the Whole Milky Way

In Your Eyes I Drifted Away

And in Your Arms I Just Wanna Sway

Amazing Day

Amazing Day

Amazing Day

Amazing Day

Oh Oh Oh Oh...

 

And I Ask How Your Mine

Poetry Chimed

The Canopy Breaks in the Chaos Some Times

Oh Thanks God

You Must Have Heard When I Prayed

Cause Now I Always Want to Feel This Way

Amazing Day

Amazing Day

Amazing Day

Amazing Day

Yeah Today

I loved the new song, but I can't actually WAIT for the studio version ! I hope they'll release it in the coming days on youtube !
