I suspect I'll forever have a bias with Moon Music. My heavily pregnant wife and I went to the cinema for the listening event, knowing it would be our final date together alone as a couple before we b

Did a quick mix of iAAM, with Chris and the piano from the acoustic version and G+J+W from the album mix. It feels more Viva-ish to me this way.Β  Coldplay - I am a Mountain (classicplay mix).

Whoaaaa Man In The Moon is amazing!! Not gonna lie when the full moon album dropped I immediately checked whether Shine On was there and was kinda bummed when I didn't find it... But MITM will suffice for now, finally something that sounds straight out of MX with a bit of an AHFOD vibe too.

And I've seen people say MOTS was better. I'd headbutt them so quick.

Yeah, I really don’t get it. Everyone’s entitled to their own opinion, I just can’t wrap my head around thinking this album is somehow worse than MOTS. They are two very different projects.

Something I'd like to do when MOTS3 comes out in whatever form that may be, is to listen to the three in one long go.

I'd probably also assemble my own 'ultimate MOTS' which would take the best bits from all three albums to make one banger. But as we don't have MOTS3 yet, here's what I came up with for just MOTS and MM:

D1SA:

  1. Forever Held / Moon Music
  2. Jupiter
  3. Humankind / Alien Choir
  4. Neon Forest
  5. All My Love
  6. I Am A Mountain

D1SB:

  1. Aeterna
  2. Good Feelings
  3. Man in The Moon
  4. Angel Song
  5. The Karate Kid
  6. Human Heart

D2SA:

  1. Higher Power (Acoustic)
  2. Let Somebody Go
  3. Feels Like I'm Falling in Love
  4. Day 'n' Nite

D2SB:

  1. One World
  2. A Wave
  3. Infinity Sign / Coloratura

Additionally I have made an un-ultimate MOTS album, which combines the efforts of mainly the first album to create the worst CD to ever hit store shelves:

  1. Overtura
  2. Music Of The Spheres / Higher Power
  3. Higher Power (Alyx Ander Remix)
  4. Higher Power (ZHU Remix)
  5. Higher Power (Tiesto Remix)
  6. Feels Like I'm Falling In Love (Zerb Remix)
  7. Music Of The Spheres 2 / My Universe
  8. My Universe (SUGA's Remix)
  9. My Universe (Supernova 7 Remix) -Β I do really like the Supernova 7 Remix but I think I might be alone on that...
  10. My Universe (Galantis Remix)
  11. My Universe (David Guetta Remix)
  12. Let Somebody Go (Kygo Remix)
  13. Let Somebody Go (Ofenbach Remix)
  14. People Of The Pride
  15. We Pray (TINI Version)
  16. We Pray (Elyanna Version)
  17. We Pray (? Version)
  18. Biutyful

OKAY. So I was going to review what i thought of the songs after hearing Moon Music but Full Moon just came out?!?! So I'll do it as I listen to this version.... What in the Taylor Swift is this move though??

Disc 1

MOON MUSiC- Actually very good. Love Chris on this one, even as it is an odd start to the album. I really like it, its beautiful, and its lyrics aren't just Lalala so thats always a plus on Moon Music.

feelslikeimfallinginlove- Not as bad as My Universe or Higher Power in terms of MOTS singles but come on. Its a sweet little song, but not interesting to me in the slightest and theres no reason to listen to it.

WE PRAY- Although not my favorite song, its SO INTERESTING, reminiscent of EL. The only reason it might not fit on EL is that it's not acoustic-y. I really love this one, and with the features. It isn't boring, at least conceptually. My only dislike is that it just isn't that good, and ALSO has the Moon Music lalala'sβ„’.

Jupiter- A tad boring, but it's pretty quiet and sweet. It's dreamy and relaxing, except the lalala's. The extra part of the song at the end is better than the whole rest of the song, in my opinion.

GOOD FEELiNGS- I legitimately hate this song. It sounds like the Just Dance theme song or something. Its only good feature is the one verse with the other singer, other than those few seconds its like nails on a chalkboard to me.

🌈- Some lovely song snippets, not much of a cohesive song. I've seen that its a teaser for the musical?  Very nice, but not really a song

iAAM- I actually love this one. Its so cheesy and preachy lovey-dovey Coldplay garbage, but I feel well done. It reminds me of Humankind. That's good because I happen to like Humankind, at least its one of the tolerable ones in MOTS

AETERNA- Also reminds me of Just Dance background music. Its just a dance song, barely counts as a song to me because when am I going to listen to it? When I am at an alien club? It also has a little snippet at the end, but that adds very little to it.

ALL MY LOVE - Basic little love ballad. So sterotypically Coldplay-y its hard to take seriously. It does remind me of GS a bit and True Love, though, and does feel at least a little heartfelt, so its not so bad. However, its not special and HAS LALALA'S which are the bane of my existence after listening to MM a few times

ONE WORLD- At the beginning I thought it was playing Hymn for the Weekend because of the birds. Its just fine. Coloratura-esque in terms of being the last song, but not as good. The "it's just love" part is VERY cheesy, but thats the best part of the song, and the harmonies there are really cool. As for the "hidden track"... it's just lalala's. I have to say, though, that of all the lalala's it's the best. Honestly my favorite part disc 1 despite having no lyrics and it is a lot like Cry Cry Cry.

Disc 2

Moon Music-Elodie- Just as pretty as Moon Music originally was, simple. Only thing that makes me like it less is missing Chris's vocals

feelslikeimfallinginlive- Honestly makes me appriciate the song a billion times more. Having the crowd interaction with the clapping is great for live shows. The song still isnt great or even that good, but in this context it works with the clapping mechanism, and it overall is better live.

The Karate Kid- DANG. Best song of the album hands down. An actually good new Coldplay ballad?!!? Its good, and not just by the lowered standards we have for Moon Music and MOTS. Its the gift to the Coldplayers.Β 

WE PRAY- Be Our Guest- Its just a slightly different version of WE PRAY....

Angelsong- A little alien lullaby. It reminds me a bit of Daddy. Not my father, the song. I like having the long version of a snippet, but I do find it a little boring.Β 

Jupiter-Single Version- Just Jupiter without the ending part

Man in the Moon- It's so MX! Despite being so love-y new Coldplay-y its pretty good, especially for being one of THOSE songs.

i Am A Mountain- More listenable than the original iAAM, and I like it better EXCEPT it has a lot less energy, which I thought was cool in the original. For some reason this one was like going to make me cry. It's a lot more emotional.Β 

All My Love-Live in Dublin- Much little better live in my opinion, again it has more emotion to it. When played live you can actually get some soul into a basic and pretty boring ballad. I feel like a lot of the Moon Music songs have a canny feel, so live sounds better. In this version it is even clearer to me that "whether it rains, it remains" is awkwardly similar to True Loves "if you don't then lie, oh lie to me".Β 

πŸ‘‹(A Wave)- We've been talking about this one for a while. Its a much better end song than ONE WORLD. Its a much better song in general. One of the best on the album. The perfect ending actually. Its wonderful. A Wave is great.Β 

Overall Disc 2 saves the whole album I was actually depressed over Moon Music being so bad, then this came out and I'm so glad it did but perplexed by the move to release all their good songs 2 days later. They could have just replaced the horrible ones in Disc 1 with the good ones from Disc 2!!! Anyway, those are my thoughts.

The whole album was written round All My Love and it's Chris's favourite songΒ

Am i the only who gets a free as a bird vibe from the chorus of karate kid?

"whatever happened to the life we once knew" it's almost the same melody and very similar lyricsΒ 

Huh, you’re right. Good catch.

And now they've released the Full Moon Edition, which has ten bonus tracks including A Wave.

Interestingly this version gives you the choice between MP3, WAV and FLAC. All of them are the same price, so there is literally no reason to go for anything other than FLAC.

If anyone from Coldplay reads this,Β please stop releasing new versions of Moon Music.

this is the first time ive seen someone from this fandom beg for them to stop releasing stuff LOL
