So they´re going to wait till the album is out (probably next spring, if so) to announce the tour dates? What do you think? In my opinion, very late for what every artist is getting us used to...

What about next year´s supposed-to-happen tour? In a few weeks we´ll get announcements from U2 and, possibly, Oasis... Is Coldplay going to compete with that? I don´t get why next legs are not already announced and sold.

Oh I completely forgot the ending with FLIFIL! In fact, it´s a song I didn´t like at all when it came out, and now it´s not close to my favourites, but I´ve changed the way I enjoy it for better. And I think the transition between Moon Music and this one is great. Anyway, four new songs it´s very few for a new album, if you´re an artist that believes in what you´re doing and not only in what you´ve done in the past.

Well, I guess we´re not the band´s target lately.

You´re forgetting We pray. But I agree, I´m hoping they change the tour soon so they can focus on their actual album as they´ve always done.

They maybe don´t need that... but it helps. And I would say it´s in their nature lately to do exactly that, get together with anyone they feel can add something to their music. Hopefully they would not, but the odds are not good.

I found it awful, the whole thing was horrible, and Coldplay´s song is like a new and much worse kind-of-version of Aeterna. Next thing, please... By the way, I´m spanish so thanks for the congratulations in advance! Halftime Show

I find very interesting the discussion about how possibly Zero theory lead to X&Y, but if you put in the mix accusations of pdf and animal porn, I get absolutely lost, sorry.

I don´t think so, the idea of the final album doesn´t match at all with a tour like MOTS, and we know for sure the tour will go on next year. If the musical is not ready, then I guess they will release an EP or whatever.

And I just gave you the example of People of the Pride, that comes from the VLV sessions. They rework the songs, change lyrics (or not), but it´s not strange at all. It´s very naive to think that all the songs in an album have been created the previous two years.

Actually, it´s very common, they have something that didn´t fit on that album, or couldn´t get right, and they could go back to that track and rework it till they´re sure about it. People of the Pride is a great example, and lots of bands do the same thing.

And the feedback was not, in fact, better? It didn´t have supercommercial singles like "Higher power" or "My Universe" ("My Pray" is the closest, and I think "Good Feelings" didn´t have the push it needed) but I sensed a much better opinion towards MM.

Please!

Exactly my point, thanks for repeating it😂

Right now, Coldplay is not a concert anymore, is an event. Thousands of people, thousands of not-fans-at-all, will be there if the concert is next to where they live, because the feeling inside and the picture on their TT or Instagram looks and feels so good. I don´t know if that will change on the next tour once they finish this MOTS, but a big % of people that paid a ticket on 2024 (including me) did not attend because of We Pray or All my love.
