Nikola Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 This one is by far the most disappointing song compared to its snippet. The lyrics and vocal melody don't fit the epicness of the instrumental rendering the song extremely inessential. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harondor Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Just noticed that the beginning of the second verse is different on the handwritten lyrics. Instead of "been around the world, universe too", we have "been around the world, the golden and blue". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Leo Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 ^^ there are quite a few inaccuracies in the booklet. I think perhaps because the handwritten lyrics are early drafts? Though I'm pretty sure the ones on the website are accurate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephie Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 This song still makes me so happy, it really shouldn't be allowed. :bliss: I have the strange feeling though, that it will be left out on next year's live setlists. I hope I'm wrong. :( 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnymax865 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 does someone know a way to remove the vocoder voice from this song? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Rush of Magic Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 does someone know a way to remove the vocoder voice from this song? There is no vocoder, its just Chris's voice sped up. If you're talking about X Marks The Spot, then that's a seperate song technically Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jer123 Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 This is one of the better songs from AHFOD,i think its pretty underrated from people with judgmental thinking and X Marks The Spot being combined with it does not help 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephie Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Some people who don't like the song that much, have said that it's kind of forgettable. I really love this song, and funnily enough for me it is, too. :lol: It's a really strange thing, because when I haven't listened to it for a while I cannot immediately bring my head to remembering it. It's not like other songs (loved of not loved) that can pop into my head at random moments and that might stay there hauntingly. And at the same time, whenever I listen to the song again, I immediately remember why I love it and then it all comes back. It's like a new and yet familiar experience every time. Keeps the song fresh for me. I can't imagine getting sick of it anytime soon. :earmuffs: (Maybe it's just the beginning of short-term memory loss, LOL.) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gideon_Mx Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 The first time I listened it it was like ''hmm :thinking:''. But since the third time or so I listened, I loved it and I still do! It's definitely one of my favorites in AHFOD! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ran away Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 I still don't like the song itself but I have to say I like this cover's vocals much better than the original ones by Chris, and that's something I very rarely can say about Coldplay covers ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Leo Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Not liking the cover..... Singer is great, piano too, but its just not this song. It reminds me of Sam Smith a bit, whom I like, but no...Coldplay is something else for me and this style doesn't fit the song imo. Though Coldplay have such melodic songs they sound pretty good no matter how you play them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimixyloto Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 my favorite song of the album. I almost feel like it could mesh with Paradise 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest diogo_sg Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 my favorite song of the album. I almost feel like it could mesh with Paradise Now that I think about it, it definitely could! They both have similar tempos and drumbeats and the explosion of synths at the beginning of Army Of One is also reminiscent of Paradise's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guy42 Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Not sure if this has been posted. Here's a cover. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lennyrott1 Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Thoughts: I really think this song's final mix is either under produced or overproduced. Why? So these covers are stripped versions with pianos--and they are AMAZING! The melody is great, the piano makes it far more meaningful and uplifting rather than the thumping drums and uninteresting organ. These covers feel more Coldplay than the actual song. The live version performed at Buenos Aires is also really awesome because Jonny is allowed to play around with his guitar--and they weren't afraid to add extra synth sounds into the mix. The studio version with this free style guitar jam would be infinitely better. My last word is this: I really hope we eventually get a Army of One Single that includes alternative mixes or perhaps an acoustic version. I think of all the AHFOD tracks, it would have the best acoustic version--would feel very X&Y. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
