I think it's time they took a female backup singer with them on tour so they can sing Princess of China (I don't really like that song a lot but they might play it), Fun and HFTW.

Now that would be interesting :)

I can't help but notice a certain melancholy/heaviness in the main instrumental melody of HFTW. Feels a bit as if the happiness in it is forced. Am I the only one to think like that about HFTW ? Or does someone agree ?

 

I cant say I feel that about the song, though the melancholy can be due to minor chords. They often give you that "melancholic" feeling. But no I feel the song is a celebration of "the angel" :) However parts like "when I was so heavy" certainly convey a sense of hardship, which then though is quickly lifted by the "Put your wings on me" :)

LOL Not a bad idea, but I kinda prefer the background video of Beyonce or Rihanna or even Tovlo. I dont know I think for me they have such distinctive voices that I would not enjoy other female singers singing those songs.

think this will be released within the coming two weeks. it needs some time to get played before the super bowl after all.

Yes, I have the same feeling too. It makes more sense when Beyonce was announced to play at the Superbowl along with the band. So HFTW should be played at some point imo.

Look at the date posted... that can't be right. There's something wrong with this.

 

Don't bother listening to the audio, that's not Hymn For The Weekend. But the title is interesting. I find it funny they messed up the order of "Beyonce" and "Coldplay" :P

I think the person who uploaded the video back in February 2015 changed its title and thumbnail recently :)

I find it a bit hard to be excited about single releases anymore...now without any b-sides and probably no vinyl release either. There is like nothing special about it except it will make people who have not bought the album hear yet another song from it in the radio, which is good for sales of course. But all we are left with is a video to look forward to....which yeah is cool, but I sure miss the "goodies" that used to come with single releases in the past.

 

Here´s to hoping they will come back.

Agreed :)

So could this be the video shot in India, with all the colours etc ? I hope so - we've seen enough tempting photos already.

I think it is pretty much confirmed ;)

I called it...I think I predicted this in another thread....artwork isn't even 'new' it's just the kaleidoscope design for that song
