MosesTheMarshmallow Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 I fancied having a discussion about the music that inspires Coldplay B-sides. In a totally self-interested way, I want to find more music that sounds like Sleeping Sun. Because i cannot place the inspiration for that song. For me, it makes me think of a bunch of antelopes running through the Australian plains??? But are there other bands that sound like this? Other examples of things we can talk about: -Moving to Mars is a little bit like Life on Mars? by David Bowie, with a lot of melancholy piano and then a huge guitar solo. The guitar solo is VERY Pink Floyd-esque though. -One I Love is clearly a product of Echo and the Bunnymen, and the band covering Lips Like Sugar during the AROBTTH era. -Not a B-side, but Another's Arms reminds me a lot of 80s music. For instance the spoons part sounds a little like the keyboard part in Africa by Toto. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carolina* Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 I wonder what inspired I Bloom Blaum? It seems much more experimental than a lot of their songs, especially not being on the Viva album. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
