On my first listening of this song(Radio 1), I felt very happy 'cause I thought "Finally, a new Coldplay era is coming". Now that I gave more attention to the song, I am instantly thinking of MX era.
The song isn't bad, is a combination of the talent of the members+ Rik Simpson and Stargate (mainly). I expect better songs from this forthcoming album. I'm also expecting a great song with Beyonce(not like Princess of China, with Rihanna, that song was awful).
However the collaboration with Noel Gallagher will have thumbs up, i am pretty sure of that.
Now we have to wait for us "oldplayers" til December to keep criticizing the album as fans and knowers of music.
Peace.
