    Hi guys!!! Last Monday an Italian newspaper published a brief interview with violinist Davide Rossi. I'm Italian and live in Italy, so I promptly went to the newsagent's and bought the paper. In

Well, it might be a hit and a great song but...they lyrics are cringeworthy ?

I'm actually looking forward to this a lot i love that Coldplay tries new things and are still popular 

Most will hate it but I guarantee I'll love it

they always are 

Love Coldplay but always thought lyrics were poor 

No, they have tons of songs with amazing lyrics while the song is great too.

Like Violet Hill.

True let me rephrase to say lyrically they started well but occasionally have poor lyrics

I'm interested in the English translation of the lines sung in Korean, actually

Plot twist 

BTS sings the English lines

Chris sings the Korean ones

I like Coldplay trying new things but have never really been wild about their features. 
 

I prefer their features to be on an ep instead of a full release. I don’t get BTS and I’m happy for anyone who is happy. 
 

was just hopefully it would be like a one off like chain smokers thing. 

Well, in the end it's all about melody and the feeling a song delivers. If the lyrics are good too - the iceing on the cake. But it's not that important to me.

Lets be all honest, the Higher Power lyrics are meh. But the song has a great vibe and is uplifting and addictive. Pretty sure there will be at least 2 or 3 songs on MotS with more depth to it. 

Anyway, if i'm in the mood for some decent lyrics i still can head over to stuff like Cast No Shadow, Amsterdam or (like mentioned before) Violet Hill.

I'm a bit worried by this possible BTS collaboration when considering Coldplay as a great live band. It better be a damn massive hit song or something weird that they never include in touring setlist or make another version for live performances, because obviously there will be will be a very few real live performances together with BTS on stage.

I'm not really enjoying the vocals coming from backing tracks in live performances, already Princess of China a bit annoyed me and there has been more and more prominent vocal tracks coming from backing tracks since that. Also Higher Power has a lot quite prominent backing vocals coming from a tape and I really hope this isn't going to be a trend for the future.

No hate against Coldplay trying out interesting new things, I just don't want their live performances to become a joke. If these vocal collaboration songs become important pieces in future setlist, they better work out how to make it genuine or make sure it's just one or two songs like that in setlist.

I'm not worried to see them explore new horizons but BTS is a band with a huge fanbase and that can be quite scary. I'm afraid that it could break the peaceful atmosphere of Coldplay fanbase...

BTS overhyped in my opinion....and I think they don’t deserve to trending EVERY SINGLE TIME a new release, on YT anyways. Same goes to Blackpink.

Chris complimented BTS song recently so I expected this

Was really only a matter of time

The BTS collaboration is definitely happening but there is nothing to indicate that those lyrics (or the title) are true. These are "collaborative" lyrics websites meaning anyone can say anything they want.

The Coldplay fandom has A LOT of trolls and it's happened all the time. With the "3rd song" from Big Weekend, rumours have been at their peak regarding the collab. Lyrics wouldn't properly leak unless the song was imminent, but they haven't even properly promoted Higher Power yet (there could be lots of tv appearances to come, the video is not even out yet).

So let's be patient.

Hoping video is out by June 1-10

my birthday is June 1st 

Would be best gift 

Having those words come from Guy and Will makes me think Big Weekend's mysterious nonbroadcasted song is NOT the BTS collaboration. A visit to the UK by BTS or even use of a BTS backing track/video seems like it'd be rather difficult to prevent from leaking, no?

Also, they've already had a big collaboration with Beyonce arguably one of the most famous artists already. Though with BTS there is a non-English possibility, but then Arabesque already has its French lyrics. 

Racking my brain about other things the band hasn't yet done, how about:

-Any of the boys (but most likely Will) singing lead vocals, or some kind of serious duet between Chris and another bandmember

-An instrumental. No major Coldplay hit and very few actual Coldplay songs are instrumentals except for LIT (which has some vocals) or intro/interlude tracks like MX, MMIX, Colour Spectrum.

-Relating to the previous, song involving some serious synthesizer-ing. Sure there are Coldplay songs with synths, but X&Y was the only album with any major exploration of how to use them in an interesting way. Coldplay has said in interviews that they really like this album Moon Safari by Air, which this song appears on - it was one of the albums that was "always playing when they met". This kind of use of synths = twiddling the knobs a LOT to get super interesting effects, fitting with the radio theme. Kraftwerk was just inducted into the Rock&Roll Hall of Fame, and they're a major inspiration too (so much so that of course Talk is sampled from their song Computer Love), so I could also a renewal of interest in that type of music. 

-Speaking of the radio theme, Radiohead's song National Anthem includes the use of samples of actual local radio playing wherever they are. I could see Coldplay doing something similar, except it would somehow use radio from all the planets. 

-An internally live-generative song like Radiohead's Everything In Its Right Place where as the song goes on they take samples of stuff Thom Yorke is doing and looping it extremely thoroughly, until at the end of the song it's only samples and no one playing live anymore. If anyone remembers the Dell perfrmance, Chris has those acoustic guitars that have launchpads attached to them, making it easy to trigger samples whilst playing guitar (Matthew Bellamy from Muse has a similar mechanism on his guitar but with a KAOSS pad). This is the exact technology that could lead to a song like this:

If the BTS collaboration is indeed true, it could be the 2nd single (and big hit) off the album. I'm not a fan of K-pop in general and couldn't understand the mass hysteria around it. However, the previous collaborations of Coldplay with another artist/s were, for the most part, good at least in my opinion so I'm definitely curious on how this song will turn out.

Agree. POC and HFTW are actively enjoyable! I especially love Jonny’s big guitar riff in POC. Fun is a nice song too.
