I second JPA24. This month or so has been really hard on me personally and these songs have really helped. We had a family dog pass away two days ago (he was 12 and passed peacefully thankfully) and he was ill for a few weeks beforehand (I’m not saying that for sympathy, just background on how much these songs have positively impacted me the past several weeks). Songs like Blessed, Love Is A Mighty River, Earthling, and the ending to Wedding Bells (“pain, we’ll sail it away”) have helped hold me together. I don’t really know anything about the whole leaking world. It seems very stressful, chaotic, dramatic. I don’t really want a part in it, but I appreciate the sharing of the music because it does have a great impact on us fans. Their music means a lot to us, and despite the drama, brings us together. It doesn’t warrant or excuse bad behavior, like that you mention. Whatever your part is in all of it, thank you. 😊

I, for one, would love to hear the UWTB demo. That’s a top 3 song for me

Ah okay! I don’t recall hearing it anywhere. Sounds pretty good, especially as a lossless file

The latest FLAC files on the site

The song itself isn’t new but I think the SZA feature is?

That would be awesome! Thank you!

It honestly sounds really good

I don’t think the Nile Rodgers one leaked in full right?

Those FLAC files are beautiful. Are there FLAC files of official releases? It sounds so good compared to like the Apple Music versions

Is that ambient version real? Sounds pretty good too, even if it isn't

That’s a pretty strong statement considering Coloratura happened since Arabesque. Do you like the Chris vocals or the “alien” ones? (Though the Chris one that was just uploaded sounds like AI, there was another uploaded a bit ago that sounds better)

That acoustic guitar in the background towards the end of the AOAL SG Mixes is so nice. I’d like to see that in another song or something

It almost sounds like something they would do though. They do like to incorporate voice clips sometimes but I don't think they would incorporate that one

Some interesting ideas in the MM Overtura on that site but LOL at the inclusion of the Oppenheimer "Destroyer of Worlds" piece lol

Regarding the AHFOD folder, what does SG mean?

Crazy that the Marshmello collab (UFO II) turned out actually really good. I like it way better than their released one with The Chainsmokers

Watered down support is a problem industry-wide. There are some artists that are very vocal about their LGBTQ+ support (Imagine Dragons for example), but Coldplay has been kinda tepid in comparison. I do appreciate their efforts (and I of course appreciate getting a pride flag during POTP at one of the concerts) but I do hope that they put in more thoughtful lyrics/messages if they want to go that route.

I concur with this one.

Forever Whatever I think was also part of this leak

How many times will I be Rick rolled LMFAO

I think it's more like the intro to Dream On (obviously not a copy of it but when the guitar notes go up in Blessed, I keep expecting it to keep going like in Dream On lol)

Nice! These sound correct to my ears. Side note: the acoustic guitar during the High as a mountain part is driving me mad. It sounds exactly like a classic rock song but I can't put my finger on it. Part of me says maybe something like Stairway to Heaven (not the well-known intro, but rather the guitar playing while they're singing in the song), but I'm not sure if that's it.

Could be anything if a lasso can be a lassoo

I have no clue what he's saying here lol

I know Stranger is an AI fake too, but it gives me strong Thirteen Senses. I wouldn't be surprised if the comparison song used in the AI model was one of theirs.
