42Escapist Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 They did Lovers In Japan again?! YESSSSSS! We're getting a proper live recording of the new acoustic version. Guns Orphans Daddy Lovers In Japan Arabesque Gypsy Woman Everyday Life and Chris said Femi's band also recorded an extra song but that wasn't broadcast (yet) I think It has been saying "Femi Jam" after Arabesque on the official setlists for the last couple of shows so I wonder if that's what was recorded 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewsky Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Found two pictures from the BBC session. I think the first pic is from pre-show, Chris is wearing different clothes here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewsky Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 I now believe this picture might come from an earlier part of the session that was taped and is airing tomorrow on Radio 2 (Jo Whiley). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andrewsky Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 Oh there’s a part 2!? Confirmed by BBC Radio. Well, it's an earlier half of the session that didn't come On Air today. There's a thread about this here: https://coldplaying.com/forum/index.php?threads/jo-whiley-session-bbc-radio-2-28-11-2019.126198/#post-5957727 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dxm3557 Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 I loved that the cover they made (Gypsy Woman), even unintentionally, fits perfectly into the theme of the new album, both in lyrics and arrangements. This is something to admire. Btw, those who want a HD audio of the cover, extracted on BBC Sounds, just DM me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
42Escapist Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 I love how they're always pretty smart about their choice of cover song when they do decide to whip one out. I wouldn't at all be surprised if there was a lot of thought put into the choice to play Gypsy Woman, given the kind of themes that song explores. Fits this era perfectly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachpid Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 They did Lovers In Japan again?! YESSSSSS! We're getting a proper live recording of the new acoustic version. It has been saying "Femi Jam" after Arabesque on the official setlists for the last couple of shows so I wonder if that's what was recorded Chris said they'd recorded one of Femi's own songs for the extra track. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shoeboxlady Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 It seems that Jo Whiley is repeating the Maida Vale session on radio 2 this evening for those that perhaps missed it. Radio 2 for those of you who are the more mature Coldplayer! :joy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkyFullOfTrouble Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 I can't get the Lovers in Japan Version out of my head. It's so good and even better than the acoustic version. Now i got the feeling that i would love to hear an album with rearranged songs in the future! :D 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ran away Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 My brain since yesterday evening: La da deee, la da daaa :joy: But honestly, great cover from the band. This cover and session yesterday made me feel really warm about this new era - something of the sparkle of early Coldplay has crept back into their performances ! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
