I know Chris is singing the chorus, but is that really him on the verses?? :inquisitive:

I hope Chris is embarassed of this track for the rest of his life...but knowing him, I think he will go around saying in interviews how truly great and kind and talented and genius Avicii is and how cool it was to be part of this and bla bla bla.

 

I can already picture the interview °___°

 

Interviewer: "So what's up with this ... EDM song you recorded with Avicii? The fanbase wasn't particularly ... convinced of this song, to put it mildly."

Chris: "Whaddaya mean?"

Interviewer: "The critics were exceptionally negative this time"

Chris: "Critics? In terms of what?"

Interviewer: "Chris, what I'm trying to tell you is, the new song is utter bollocks and everybody bloody hates it. We expected better"

Chris: ":|

 

 

 

 

 

well darn I better record another 4023498 songs with Avicii to get it rIGHT THEN"

Interviewer: "tHAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT FUCK"

^ hahaha this is awesome :)

 

 

Well, all of this proves we're all really impatient for AHFOD to come. Personnaly I want Chris Martin to take the whole power. I want more Chris Martin. Moar Chris Martin. Moar yoga. Moar songs with the word "baby" 36 times in it. Moar songs about love and believing in the powers of life. Moar songs about jumping-around-with-other-human-beings-in-a-common-feeling-of-togetherness. Moar cheese. Moar moar cheese. Moar featurings with moar sooo talented american pop stars. It's gonna be sooooo freakin good.

 

Thank you Chris Martin :heart:

 

 

Seriously this is utter shite, no other words.

 

at 3:00 : they really need to stop these freakin "white noise filter rising" moments. This is cheap, retrograding, dumb electro.

And the very end is just meh... this fake piano sounds like it's played by an 8 yrs old.

 

oh and I forgot the worst part : the lyrics...

 

"I wasn't always the brightest, till I learned how to dance

I might not have been the tallest, till I learned how to jump

baby love will come around if you want it enough

Love will come around if you're a true believer"

 

WHY R U DOIN THIS :cry:

Coldplay tweeted that we should check out this new Avicii album.

Euhm... already done that.

Anyone who is cheeky enough to reply with the url to this thread?

hahaa! i'd be horrified at the thought of people assuming that's me singing throughout the song. and i'm not even a singer. how funny is it that some people are thinking that's chris throughout the song as he is featured. :laugh3:

 

That poor verse............ the song is a decent EDM song with a solid chorus if it wasn't for that god awful verse.....what a pity. I actually liked the first version and Heaven. I am not a huge fan of Swedish House, but I totally see the appeal. There is just way better dance music out there.

Why is Chris wasting his time on this...

 

He loves EDM, and he loves to work with Avicii. He's not wasting his time when doing what he likes. We are NOBODY to judge if that's a waste of HIS time or not. ;)

I like this version from Ultra Music Festival more.. You hear Chris more clear.. The album version is terrible!

This version is way better than the one on the album. :)

Just listened to this after polishing off a bottle of Cava in the hot sunshine in my beautiful garden surrounded by wonderful Welsh hills....... quite enjoyed it actually - and giggled at the comments in this thread. Yea - the main voice sounds like someone just sucked on a helium balloon, but Chris was quietly, and beautifuly there in the background on the chorus - nice. Ahhh... leave the lad alone - if it makes him happy... let him get on with it. You go Chris !!!:D

Love the gif on Batman's post above mine !!!

btw - absolutely LOVE this.

Oooooooooooooookaaaaaaaaaaaay...definitely not my cup of tea :blank:

Now I wonder what the 598 other versions sound like (the ultra version sounds a lot better)

Even though it sounds a little overproduced in places, I actually like the song. It's pretty catchy.

lol, rolling stone called the song "piffle"..

Sums up the whole EDM genre in my opinion.

Someone should let them know the things we suffer for being their fans... It's nice supporting one of your producers but have they actually personally heard this 'stuff' (a stronger word comes to mind) they have just indirectly endorsed??? Just because he did a song for them doesn't mean they have to be permanently associated / supportive of him if things are not up to scratch!

@Batman : sorry, sometimes I do enjoy a good ol' sarcasm :sneaky: it may be a bit difficult to be humorous in a non-native language so I don't know if you were ironic or if you actually laughed to this, but one thing is certain : you always have the perfect gif at the perfect time ! :D

That's well said. And maybe you can add Skrillex into it, just for the fun.

 

 

Oh and sorry I'm not really into this Avicii stuff so can someone offer me a brief recap of what happened to that other song, Heaven ? it was meant to be sung by Chris and then Avicii and Chris offered it to someone else is that right ? Is the song out somewhere ?

I'd really like to have moar of this collaboration, it's so much fun actually :D

Dude your post REEKED of sarcasm, I loved it so much! Hence my reaction gif :lol::laugh3:

I'm not a fan of this track:confused:

In the album version, God noooo ! In earlier versions, he sang the verses too.

Why did they remove his vocals from the verses then for the album version?:cry:

 

Well I'm not too sure on that one.:\

Nobody knows. But hey, there is a very good quality version with his vocals available. There's no need to listen to the new shitty version :D

 

I just uploaded it for you guys, it's a bit better than what has been posted here: http://www.filedropper.com/avicii-truebelieveroriginalmix

Avicii makes bad music decisions. He could have had Brandon Flowers' vocals for 'The Days' but discarded it for some other weird sounding dude.

What an awful waste.
