I also wonder if the ARMY will stay with us in the coming months, years even. And I also hope HOPE they get CP more views on YT daily. That be a damn miracle and super exciting since I check 168 videos every single day for the past 4 years.

The Army is massive, so I'm sure a good amount of them will check out Coldplay's catalogue and possibly become fans, specially because they can tell when a collab is genuine (Halsey) or a quick cash grab (Jason Derulo). But anyway, you check videos one by one? There's actually a website for that ?

Ok, but SJLT has a good sound, catchy beat, nice drop. How is THAT subjective? If the song was bad, as in: off key and a lot of static? That’s not subjective, that’s a fact BAD.

But how does a song that sounds good (Catchy, pretty melody) subjective? but when a song has random noises and off key, that’s not subjective, that’s a fact bad. This makes NO sense. 

it even has that awesome Guitar at the end!

The live version is decent, I'll give you that and we bury this matter here ?

I prefer just doing it myself.

XMTS should have been a b-side imo. I think it gets a bad rap as well.

Bad rap is exactly the keyword for XMTS...yes i'll see myself out

So it seems the MU Leak was a demo. No rap on that one. So the finished version should be better, yeah? More clarity and polished for a nice shine. ?

Soooo, the band still playing IHEART RADIO on this Friday/Saturday?

I agree. SJLT is a BANGER and I like listening to it from time to time. My Universe will do much better than SJLT though although this ain’t about doing a cashgrab collab, they actually genuinely idolise each other, breaking down those barriers and giving BTS the honour of being on a Coldplay album. It’s probably the most wholesome collab they’ve ever done. Since Army is involved, it will no doubt smash all Coldplay records

I think it's similar to the Chainsmokers collab, if anything it's more of a cash grab. They've been marketing this collab quite well, talking about shared values etc. But at the end of the day BTS are very much a brand. They have an incredibly long list of brand deals under their belt, more than I've ever seen with any other artist. It's quite impressive actually, but those deals are made because they're very lucrative. It's not all about their music or their values. I always liked how Coldplay mostly stayed away from such deals and focused on their music instead as well as projects like the Make Trade Fair campaign or Global Citizen.

I think the average person / non-fan will look at this collab and say it's a sellout and or cash grab but I genuinely don't think it is. Will it be a smash hit and sell an incredible amount? Yes. But that doesn't mean the band have sold out. If this collab was a natural and organic one, which it seems like it was, then I have no problem with it.

I doubt it will be my favorite Coldplay song, but I am looking forward to it and I honestly like what I have heard so far!

Creo que la persona promedio / no fan verá esta colaboración y dirá que es una venta o un robo de efectivo, pero realmente no creo que lo sea. ¿Será un gran éxito y venderá una cantidad increíble? Si. Pero eso no significa que la banda se haya vendido. Si esta colaboración fue natural y orgánica, como parece, entonces no tengo ningún problema con ella.

Dudo que sea mi canción favorita de Coldplay, pero estoy deseando que llegue y, sinceramente, ¡me gusta lo que he escuchado hasta ahora! 

Beyonce, The Chainsmokers, Avicii, Jay Z, Rihanna...

Friendly reminder that THIS monstrosity exists:

 

I think that the song, had it been worked on more, could have been good. Currently the vocals sound like he's pretending he's from Bristol, and the rest of the song is a bit tinny, but a re-mix (I don't mean a remix) and new vocals would make the song Fine™.

I've heard the full song, but here's a snippet Coldplay posted on TikTok. Despite it being VERY Newplay, I absolutely love it.

I like it as well. It sounds a lot better made than Higher Power (which I have grown to like quite a bit) and the lyrics don't seem bad at all. The snippet in Overtura was also my favourite one out of the songs that haven't been released yet. But obviously I'll need to hear the whole thing to make my mind up fully.

One of my favorite remixer and DJ, Tom Middleton (former Global Communication), who remixed Jon Hopkins "Light through the veins" (and even did a mash up between LTTV and Death and all his friends (this remix was not available commercially)) has a new album in late october.

Called GCOM - E2 - XO

Look at this artwork. (more on Bleep)

Anyone else going to the Late Late Show taping today?

The rumors are true ?

I’m pretty annoyed that there still keep coming different versions. Why not announce all of them at once? Now i’ve already pre-ordered, but I would’ve loved this truly limited and numbered version. Now it’s already soldout anyway ?

Every time I see people talking about “The Race” I remember when we couldn’t stop talking about “Car kids” ?. If you know, then you’ve been on this sub for awhile…
