Famous Old Painter

Doubt it.

Ranking what we've heard so far 1. One World - I am very much alone on this one I suspect but idk, I've always had a thing for ambient/choral/chamber music. It's been something I've loved since I was a toddler and Coldplay do it well. The fact this sounds like my favourite Nick Cave song doesn't hurt either. 2. All My Love - based off the live version and the demo snippet (and the fact it's an EL outtake), I would be very surprised if this wasn't at least good. This has a lot of promise. 3. We Pray - not really the sort of music I want Coldplay to make but if they must, this song is pretty much a best case scenario. It's been stuck in my head since I heard the live version. One of their better pop experiments. 4. Good Feelings - based off the demo it's stone dead last, but the live version has an unexpected amount of pep to it which has gotten me slightly excited about it. I still don't think it's a great song though. 5. feelslikeimfallinginlove - I'm surprised by how much I've grown to hate this. The snippets sounded fine, I was trying to convince myself it was ok when I first heard it. But in the weeks gone by I've enjoyed it less and less, and now I don't know if I want to listen to it again.

It's coming together. 1. Moon Music 2. feelslikeimfallinginlove 3. 4. 5. Good Feelings 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. One World And We Pray and All My Love are confirmed as well.

Yeah but I love boring music The blander the better I say

I'm expecting 🌈, All My Love and One World to be pretty great. Man in the Moon and I'm a Mountain could be anything still, and if one of them is the Singapore song that's something more to look forward to. There's zero chance this album is going to be Viva or even Everyday Life level, but I knew that the second it was announced as MOTS2.

They still would've performed All My Love, We Pray and One World. But I get your point

Not that it was ever in any doubt, but we can now move Good Feelings into the confirmed column when it comes to the MM tracklist. So that's Moon Music feelslikeimfallinginlove Good Feelings We Pray All My Love One World So we're waiting on confirmation of 4 other songs

Soulmate is All My Friends are Aliens, which has previously leaked

Goodbye

It was the only Coldplay single available for four months and they spent the whole time releasing alt versions, remixes and new music videos for it instead of, you know, something new MOTS wasn’t even announced when HP dropped. All we had were new versions of HP over and over.

I'm just praying they don't give FLIFIL the Higher Power treatment. It doesn't work guys. From memory Coloratura and My Universe were released fairly close together. It's just that the promo push was reserved exclusively for MU.

Late September is still a while away, and it's on the eve of the album release. There's a chance for another single between now and then. MOTS had 3 preview tracks so I don't see why not.

Is that new LIALD snippet real or something someone made. I can't bloody tell with you lot anymore. Sounds nice anyway.

The mods haven't been online for ages. You lot scared them off.

How can you access the Universal Database? Is there a tracklist available yet?

The first half is an edit of a real 30 second snippet that leaked

Shazaming it produced nothing, so it's possible this is a real Coldplay demo after all. If not, let me know who the original artist is so I can hear more. If it is actually Coldplay, then wow wow wow, this is the Colora2ra I've been waiting for. The metadata says 2020 so if that's true then this sounds like another attempt at a Coloratura style song. If they don't finish this off with drums and vocals it'll be the biggest missed opportunity in their discography. Again, if it's not really Coldplay, then someone should send this to Phil to he can link the artist up with Coldplay anyway.

Now Untitled Demo Instrumental, what is this? Sounds fantastic, whether it's Coldplay or not.

It’s 100% fake guys. The intro just loops the same bit from the snippet over and over again, the choir is only there for a few seconds before immediately fading out, and the strings sound like someone’s keyboard and not something Davide Rossi would produce.

I kind of hope (with no evidence) that One World gets the Coloratura/Midnight treatment before the album. A Film for the Future seems to be a music video for it, so you never know. It might be a smart move, it'll calm down the "Newplay sold out" crowd temporarily. And more importantly, it'll give those million people a chance to hear where their voices went. Having a million people listen to your song would make it an automatic hit.

Also, why was Miha allowed to post the K word?

The Sun has confirmed a video for We Pray has been filmed so it's definitely a single. That doesn't necessarily mean it will be the second one but it will be released at some point.

Of course the song with some of their worst lyrics ever is the one they decide to translate into sign language

Historically, they've always given the second single the big push. Which I guess means this time they're placing their bets on We Pray.

Always happy to hear Davide. We know he’s on FLIFIL and One World too, hopefully there’ll be even more of him to look forward to on MM.
