It's a Bob Dylan cover !

I remember reading somewhere that the folder from which came the ''Colours of the Soul EP'' leaks contained something like 75 files.

How many versions do we have now? Out of the ones I've heard, I'd say the ''Whatever It Takes'' is my favourite - although this stripped down version is very good too!

I've been following these leaks with lots of interest! Here are the things I've been wanting to share about some of the songs we've had the chance to discover throughout the past weeks. Tomorrow - as others have said, this should've been on Mylo Xyloto - or at least as a B-Side. Since they've used this guitar riff in Fun, it's too bad to know that we'll propably never get a proper release. Life in a Day - the chord progression and the guitar sounds a lot like Atlas. It's quite an amazing song in my opinion, and I wouldn't be mad at all if it were to be included on Moon Music. Famous Old Painters - I never paid much attention to the instrumental leak from years ago. However, the version with lyrics quickly became one of my favorite Coldplay songs. I really loved hearing the Everyday Life version, but after a few listens, I preffer the simplicity of the original. Spanish Rain - I've been dreaming of a studio version of this song for years. Couldn't believe my ears when I finally heard it, it really is a dream come true! Everyday Story - the sample we can hear in Bani Adam works surprisingly well here, even better in my opinion. At the end of both Bani Adam and Everyday Story, we can actually hear the same series of notes that start Wedding Bells. Wedding Bells - I kept thinking the beginning sounded like something I had heard before. In fact, the bell + ambient sounds at the beginning were used in Everyday Life, they were simply transposed. The song itself is even better than I remembered, and it's easily one of the best songs out of the ones that were leaked. Wedding Song - I feel like I've heard that melody elsewhere before, please somebody help. It's a beautiful ballad nonetheless. Weirdo - I'm mad this got left out of Everyday Life, but I kinda get the feeling it was replaced by Champion of the World and I'm glad we got that one. I do hear some similarities melody-wise near the end of the song, and I love the little outro that kind of comments the sample from the documentary - feels a lot less random than at the end of When I Need A Friend. Earthling - When I first heard Angel Moon, I was kind of mad that they'd use her voice again. But honestly, it works so well here, and not only thematically - It's also very subtle compared to her voice in Biutyful. This song really moves me and it's by far one of the highlights of the recent leaks. he ending kind of sounds like Alien Choir, as if it could've transitionned into Humankind. I consider my ears very lucky to have heard these songs!

I'm mostly wondering if there is gonna be another set of planets - or new songs for the ones we we already have!

This has basically been my homepage for the last week or so

It's the same debate every time a new album is due. Listening to leaks does not in any way reveal anything about the type of fan you are. You're not a 'bad fan' if you listen to leaks, you're just excited to hear the new stuff! And it doesn't make you more of a 'real fan' if you wait for the whole album to be released on streaming services. What counts is that we're all looking forward to hearing the new music! ?

For some reason, people on Reddit believe this song is actually Life Is Beautiful. Personally, if Life is Beautiful is on MOTS Vol. I, it's track 3.

I really hope they stream it on iTunes!
