October 19, 20196 yr It's very fresh, I also believe this snippet must be the end of this song and also if you remember how they teased previous singles, I'd bet this song will be out by Wednesday :) Do singles even come out mid-week? Going with the trend, usually new music from an artist drops on a Friday.
October 19, 20196 yr Hello everybody! Everybody feeling OK, everybody feeling fresh and ready to go? :) Finally we hear a note of new music. What a beautiful way to start the day, what a beautiful way to start a new ERA. I love it.
October 19, 20196 yr Hello good morning yes that snippet sounds good and I want to hear more pls thanks
October 19, 20196 yr Thanks. I was checking Reddit, they've going crazy too if course. Someone said maybe its the ending of the album? As my band says, it sounds kinda endy! it certainly feels like the ending of a song. Could be representing the moon. Also, I can totally imagine Chris as a crooner.
October 19, 20196 yr Wow! What a comeback. Can't wait to hear more of it. Sounds very Arabian and classic!
October 19, 20196 yr Wake up, check the forum, see this dropped, somehow watch it when there are 42k views. Sounds like this will be epic!!!!
October 19, 20196 yr I’m absolutely loving what I’m hearing! Just hoping we don’t get the same thing that happened when AOAL came out, where we thought they’d be going a bit more rock with the guitar and drums but then went poppy... hopefully it isn’t just a sample section before or after a normal pop song. But I’m pretty convinced it won’t be

But I'm pretty confident that they can't turn this beautiful piece into a pop song.
October 19, 20196 yr So glad to be back and see this forum so active! Very excited for what's to come. I do think though that people expecting the entire song to sound like the snippet are setting themselves up for disappointment. I'm not expecting a AOAL style surprise but can we honestly imagine the band's lead single being a new 'classical' piece. I think it's more than likely to have the same prominence in the song as the string section in A L I E N S or at least just a snippet to help further the aesthetic they're going for like others have suggested! Excited to see what happens :)
October 19, 20196 yr jesus christ, this is GREAT. I just hope it doesn't turn to a poppy thing... but I dont think so, anyway. This is suposed to be a "experimental" thing... All hail Mr. Davide Rossi!!
October 19, 20196 yr Everytime I hear it, I get the lines "When I fall in love" into my head. And now I know why, it has a bit of a Nat King Cole sound in it. I agree that it is a part of a song, otherwise Guy, Chris and Jonny would be jobless. Will can play the violin. :D
October 19, 20196 yr That's why I'm a bit reluctant to follow all teasers, rumours, ... I don't want to have too many expectations that it is going into a specific direction. But I'm pretty confident that they can't turn this beautiful piece into a pop song. Imagine this being XMTS Part II :joy:
October 19, 20196 yr I imagine this kicking off like "Yes" after the strings .... Hello by the way,old member ofc
October 19, 20196 yr That's why I'm a bit reluctant to follow all teasers, rumours, ... I don't want to have too many expectations that it is going into a specific direction. But I'm pretty confident that they can't turn this beautiful piece into a pop song. Except they could. Listen to the first bit of Lana del Rey's Born to Die, for instance. That track starts with a nice orchestral intro, and then transforms into something entirely different.
October 19, 20196 yr We got a teaser before the end of Friday!! Liking what I'm hearing so far. But really hard to gauge what to expect. Could be a piece of a song that is drastically different to the rest of the song, or piece of a song that fits the song generally but the rest of the album is so different. Like midnight vs ghost stories. Want more Coldplay, please and thank you.
October 19, 20196 yr Except they could. Listen to the first bit of Lana del Rey's Born to Die, for instance. That track starts with a nice orchestral intro, and then transforms into something entirely different. But that's an example of a good pop song/record.
October 19, 20196 yr Except they could. Listen to the first bit of Lana del Rey's Born to Die, for instance. That track starts with a nice orchestral intro, and then transforms into something entirely different. Don't get my hopes down. :p But this feels more like an outro. Anyway, we will know when they finally release the whole song. And please Coldplay, make that soon! (AOAL was released 6 days after AHFOD posters started to appear, so ...)
October 19, 20196 yr :scream: Then I won't buy the album. “So I put my violins up to the sky and feel alive” :D
October 19, 20196 yr That snippet sounds so nostalgic, so classic, so sad and peaceful at the same time. I would love to hear more of that music but I doubt the album will be similar to this. It's supposed to be experimental. I think we will be very suprised. Looking forward to hearing more!
