tom043 Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 (edited) Brilliant song. Mix of a lot of songs I like, DAAHF, 42, Atlas, MTM, Scientist. And perfectly in it's own new style. 10:18, loving that, f*Β radio edits.Β Gotta say I hear some Queen influence in there too (lyrics and piano) and track length haha. And some elbow. 10/10 Edited July 23, 2021 by tom043 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Essam Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 I think thisβs the best closure to an album by them so far. I was afraid that we will get some silent minutes like we did on O lol. Overall this is the best closure to a Coldplay album by far.

MosesTheMarshmallow Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 [sorry to be double reposting here because i can't tell if the Coloratura thread or this thread is where all the action is at lol] What a brilliant song in every possible way! My only complaint is Jonny's solo is a bit short. But my first few thoughts: -TheΒ refugee-centric narrative becomes more clear here. MOTSvol1 sounds like a journey for an alien to somewhere that welcomes them.Β -The lyrics have an interesting common thread withΒ SJLT and Flags, in which there's a lot of naming-of-historical-figures (if you count superheroes as historical figures). It's not my instant favourite way of being as compared to early Coldplay's vague angst, VLV era vague 1800s angst, or Up&Up which is full of fun imagery/literary references. But it works and it's cool.Β Various stylistic thoughts: -What an interesting evolution ofΒ Moving to Mars, Gravity, DaddyΒ in particular. The harps and strings are a great touch. I hope they can recreate all of that live!! Common to MTM and Coloratura and also HP is how much heavy lifting Will does vocally. He sounds GREAT.Β -A lot of Lydian mode is used in Coloratura, ie if you have a piano in front of you, play an F-to-F scale only on the white keys (as opposed to having a B-flat). You know what else is in Lydian mode?Β the theme to Back to the FutureΒ (and also the Simpsons lol).Β -Jonny tweeted on the CP Q+A that he was experimenting with aΒ Meris Enzo synthesizer pedal.Β You can really hear it in the 1st chorus and a few other spots where the guitar is super um, synth-like. Eg the tremolo effect with shifting filter. And later he plays a melody that sounds like a synth but pretty sure it's generated from the guitar. SUPER COOL. -The bassline is so cool! Phil tweeted and referred to it as "waterfall". It reminds me a lot of Explorers by Muse: Β -The piano is obviously very good. A lot of chromaticism and interesting chord changes very reminiscent of Bohemian Rhapsdody and also United States of Eurasia by Muse: Β 5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Manfredonia Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Obsessed with Coloratura. Whatβs so special, to me, is that it feels like it was done by the work of all four of them. Like you can individually hear all of their influence into it. Masterpiece.Β 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Famous_Old_Painter Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 For me Coloratura is in another dimension, can't even rate it. I find it funny that even though I've followed them since the beginning and Fix You is like my favorite song ever I'm completely grounded by Coloratura. I think it's a total masterpiece.Β But we all have different opinions and taste and that should be respected and valued β€οΈ 4 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IcebatofvalikinRRBZ8 Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 I like HP more than Coloratura. And Coloratura isnβt my favorite and probably wonβt be on this album.

DΓ©jΓ Vu Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 (edited) Hi everyone! I'm new here. I've been following this thread since last year but I never created my account until now though. Coloratura is a total masterpiece, the bestΒ song Coldplay have ever written since AROBTTH.Β I wanted to say also that maybe Rescue St is under the name of Human Heart, I remember an interview where the bandΒ saidΒ that this song was only focused on vocals, probably the music remains the same but lyrics are different or they had to change the title due to the new album concept (planets, space and universe). And this is not the only example out there. Just listen to Humankind intro we've already listened so far in the album trailer, it sounds the exact way on Life is Beautiful, but the name is totally different and maybe that's what happens all the time with the song titles and song structures of unreleased music from the band. Remember also that Car kids guitar riff was later released as Vodoo under Los Unidades, and elements from The Blue Room were incorporated into Square One. The same happened with December, which turned into Violet Hill and so on. Maybe The Race will come out with a different title and is already included into MOTS. Who knows? Imo, Coloratura sounds that was composed originally in the X&Y era, but in that time was not fully completed and sounded "passionless" as Chris mentioned once in an interview when the band was composing a lot of songs that were about to be included in the album, but they were ditched then. Remember that 42 songs were ditched from X&Y. Maybe the new album contains songs from that era. Edited July 23, 2021 by DΓ©jΓ Vu 10 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
