Magic_2000 401 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Well it's been a while since I had posted anything here! Obviously I have been lurking around in light of the new Coldplay album. It's funny to think that just a few weeks ago we were worried if Coldplay was even to come back with new material and after the Global Citizen concert announcement we still wondered if that would the only thing to look up to. And now here we are with two new songs which have been getting almost universal praise by the fandom and a new album will be in our hands in less than month. With this being my first time following a new Coldplay era I couldn't be more happy to see the fandom so united, what a time to be a Coldplay fan! :heart: 6 2 Link to post Share on other sites
ISawSparks06 54 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 The two tracks I'm most excited about: Church & Old Friends. I'm praying that Church has some organ/church bells featured a la "Lost!" and Old Friends just because the name itself sounds nostalgic and emotional :) 3 Link to post Share on other sites
the_escapist 718 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Some additional thoughts: -Arabesque is so mind-blowing for me that right now I am not liking Orphans so much. In my view, it is not a great song in comparison to Arabesque. Just OK. Maybe for the time being. Hopefully, it will grow on me. -I do not find Chris to be on top form on his lyrics for these two songs. I hope that will change for the rest of the album. AHFOD was also pretty irregular. - The hype I have for When I Need a Friend cannot be understated. November 22 cannot come soon enough! 4 Link to post Share on other sites
Carolina* 696 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Golden and opportune=golden opportunity?? (Moses) Champion of The World sounds like it has some pretty good potential. It HAS to be a big Will song 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Carolina* 696 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 I was also skeptical to the idea of Coldplay swearing on their songs but the “same fucking blood” part on Arabesque is one of my favorite parts of a Coldplay song ever. I wonder how Chris's dad feels about it:joy: 2 3 Link to post Share on other sites
ColdplayingfromKansas 774 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 y'all I am in absolute effing love that is how you write a climax to a song, my guys. Orphans is everything that was good about AHFOD distilled down into one song. My God, can you imagine how it's going to sound live?? And ARABESQUE!! We all wanted a spiritual successor to Viva.... This is it! GUY. CHRIS'S SINGING. OH MY GOD I have never been so excited for an album after hearing just two songs. someone please stop me i am going to burn these songs into my eardrums 7 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Daffy 107 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Btw Will does some backing during the French stuff Chris is also singing an octave lower than Will in the backing vocals in that same thing but he's turned down for the first time since maybe The Goldrush Or maybe Don't Panic in Parachutes..? Either way they're both covered by the French guy 6 1 Link to post Share on other sites
danirl87 567 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Considering starting separate threads for the future unreleased tracks too to get insight on what people expect and cover every detail in the coming month. What tracks excite you that kinda thing Should I or no? 1 Link to post Share on other sites
jc90 2780 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Considering starting separate threads for the future unreleased tracks too to get insight on what people expect and cover every detail in the coming month. What tracks excite you that kinda thing Should I or no? In the past, entire subforums were created for each individual song. I think someone suggested it before, but it was probably buried by the craziness today. Link to post Share on other sites

HowCouldIForget 298 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 I'm confused because all I can find for these songs producers-wise is Bill Rahko, Dan Green and Rik Simpson on Wikipedia. But Billboard is claiming "The Dream Team" did the songs. Concerned and confused. Is that just what these guys are going by or? 1 Link to post Share on other sites

onlylove 786 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Love Arabesque!!!! I saw Lenny Kravitz with his horn section this year and I hope that Coldplay would tour with one too. Nothing like those horns live but this came close enough. *swoon* Still need more listens of Orphans. I don't hate it, and there are catchy parts. But Arabesque shines more for me. Hyped for the rest to come! 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Xylobryte7 264 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 I love Orphans, it’s a great song. But I’m stuck on Arabesque. Unlike anything they’ve ever released and it’s so goooodddd 7 Link to post Share on other sites
