ColdplayEmil Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 I agree ........ there is nothing really special here for me atleast This and XMTS are the weakest part of the album I do not agree, at all.. I think it's one of the 'strongest' parts on the album, together with XMTS, which I'm beginning to like. I'm also pretty sure that it will be played live during the tour.

Written In Graffiti Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 That their music is for teenagers, I thought that was kinda obvious? Try explaining that to their packed concert halls full of 20-, 30-, and 40-somethings... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reddevil07 Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 This song is growing on me :D but XMTS is so odd for Coldplay... Must be from the influence of hanging out with Jay Z and Avicii for too long... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparky Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Has really grown on me. I actually quite like the lyrics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
42Escapist Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Has really grown on me. I actually quite like the lyrics. Same here. After a week of listening, the song is finally starting to click with me. The lyrics aren't bad and that organ sound is unlike anything I've heard from the band. If I had to change one thing, I would only make the song a bit longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdMartin Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 My favourite song on the album at the moment. I'll probably do like I did with Lovers in Japan/Reign of Love and separate the two manually, then rename them as separate tracks. Never did understand this joint tracks idea. Lovers in Japan is 5/5 for me and Reign of Love I don't even listen to. Just an opinion... IMO Lovers In Japan/Reing Of Love are my best part of VLVODAAHF but hey that just me it's shame though the Hidden Tracks really one of the uniquest things about Coldplay .. Live For Living even the studio one , Reign of Love, Chinese Sleep Chant, The Escapist, Til Kingdom Come, O .. all of these are amazing but then X Marks The Spot came 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronnie O Sullivan Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 Didnt really like it at first. But I have to admit Army of One has grown on me a lot. That organ and bass are just sublime! And its one of those tracks I started to like after hearing with (good) earphones, because you can hear much more details. Same goes for Birds, btw. Only complaint: It should be at least one minute longer. For now a 8/10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bosly1 Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 I was thinking Noel Gallagher for this one too :P I think this should be the single cover though! (if it becomes one) Wouldn't it be awesome if Noel Gallagher made a guest appearance at one or some of Coldplay's concerts next year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronnie O Sullivan Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Most likely at Glastonbury if you ask me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strawberry Swinger Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Try explaining that to their packed concert halls full of 20-, 30-, and 40-somethings... So? Let me tell you one thing, I work with Japanese people, and ALL of them love Taylor Swift. I don't find it normal that people aged 50 or 60 listen to this music and consider it 'favorite'. People have very mediocre taste in music nowadays. fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strawberry Swinger Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 so you are the arbiter of what is and what is not "normal" in society.. cool ;) ;) congrats You are focusing on this word way too much. What I meant was that it's ridiculous, and shows that there is no real recognition of quality. Sorry for taking music a bit more seriously than "shake shake shake it out". Call me an elitist, for all I care, but I believe that the world has truly stopped caring about getting quality, they only get what they are served so blindly, it disgusts me.

Just like the Joker said.. "Why so serious? ;) music is not just a serious intellectual exercise.. sometimes, people just want to listen to "Silly Love Songs" ... just like what paul mccartney said in that song : "You'd think that people would have had enough of silly love songs I look around me and I see it isn't so Some people want to fill the world with silly love songs And what's wrong with that? I'd like to know 'Cause here I go again I love you, I love you I love you, I love you" ;) ;) ;) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephie Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 I thought by now I'd be a little tired of this song (it's the one I listened to most often), but I'm not and it's still infusing me with happiness every time I listen to it. Whether it's a quality tune per se - I don't know, who am I to judge? But it makes me feel something and that's what makes it great for me. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether it's a quality tune per se - I don't know, who am I to judge? But it makes me feel something and that's what makes it great for me. :) Now I am curious...how many times did you listen to it? hehe I want to compare my geeky song count to other fellow coldplayers hehe If the song touches you and gives you happiness, it then stands out from other songs you listen to, therefore its a quality tune! :D And meh dont let other people tell you you are not qualified to judge whether a piece of music is good or moves you: you have ears and a brain to process the sound, ergo you´re qualified hehe :) I enjoy this song too every time because it makes me feel so determined to go to battle hehe I especially love parts like "I never say die, im never untrue". And I totally agree with your last sentence: thats what matters about anything really :) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephie Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Now I am curious...how many times did you listen to it? hehe I want to compare my geeky song count to other fellow coldplayers hehe LOL!

Haha I love what you just said :) reminds me of a time in my life when I used to ,well, mock myself for something I´d say or do or even like (your inner critic can be the worse!) and then I realised that it was really just a form of self censorship and it was so limiting, let alone hurtful. So since then I embrace it all, even the silly faces I make on the mirror in the morning LOL It has made me a much happier person and I feel much more loved. I guess that is why I tend to really really dislike any form of mockery or ridicule of someone´s genuine self expression, because I remember how bad it felt when I did it towards myself :/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
