Not bad but.. As a big fan of Coldplay I have to admit I wasn't really blown away by this track - and I usually am blown away by everything Coldplay does. Im hoping that the album is going to be brilliant, but this track just doesn't cut it for me. Midnight was great but it still didn't feel like Coldplay!

They've done it once again I've been a fan since the beginning and with every album they never disappoint me...this one won't be any different! This song is so chill and everytime I hear Chris' voice I feel at home! I love the simplicity of this song and it sounds wonderful. Can't say anything bad about it! I love you guys! May is gonna be amazing!

Losing their Magic Coldplay used to be very good, and I guess they are trying to modernize themselves to sound like… Lorde. And even here, Chris sounds like Jack Johnson. As a fan, I think all four of them should stick to their instruments, like they did in some unrecognized songs in Mylo, but as a critic, use a synthesizer to give their music a modern feel.

Slightly disappointed The instrumentals and rhythm in the majority of coldplay's songs are the reason they are so great and tranquil to hear. However, this song in particular didn't stand out much through the chords or lyrics. Hopefully the rest of the album makes up for it.

Gently upbeat. I've never been a huge fan of Coldplay and not many of their tracks are to my liking. This song I think deserves more recognition though, since the tune is amazing but still rather tranquil.

A grower Another shift in direction from the band, I admit I wasn't sure at first but the song grew on me and is now stuck in my head. Roll on May 19th.

Fantastic! So far so good with this single off the upcoming album set for a May 19th release. I've re-played this about 30 times already lol and I am excited.I really enjoy at about 2:36 - the song opens up and just comes alive!!! Hurry up May! The thing I love about Coldplay is that every one of their albums is a little different ad creative! Plus their lyrics always emotionally connect with me. Where I am at, what I am doing, whatever is happening in my life I can always soundtrack a Coldplay song.
Ok so lets remember I can remember when the last album was released and Chris had a bad time on a radio interview about it and there seemed to be this feeling people didn't quite 'get it'. But it obviously clicked because its a hugely popular album now and lets be honest it is excellent. I've no doubt the boys will have created something wonderful for us to hear :-) can't wait
Maybe I'm missing the point but I like music to have an edge and a drive to it that stems from artistry. This kind of 'sound' is autopilot, it doesn't have any life in it. Coldplay are just a bunch of millionaires producing bland Muzak for adverts. Their musical progression suggests that their engagement with the real world ended after the first million in the bank....
