| Coldplay – Princess of China Lyrics | 12 years ago |
|
Okay, it really, completely breaks my heart to say this, but hearing this song on the new Coldplay album was a tremendous disappointment to me... And before anyone jumps to my throat, let me add that I am avid Coldplay fan. Why, even my name says so! I've been a fan of Coldplay since the very beginning, 'Parachutes' helped me through a phase of utter depression, 'A Rush Of Blood To The Head' was going on in my CD player for months without ever taking it out, 'X&Y' brought about an interestingly fresh feeling that was something else but I loved it, and there was 'Viva La Vida', which was really different from anything before, but in the best way; it showed how far these guys had come and it absolutely blew my mind. I'm all for progress, but now here's 'Mylo Xyloto'.. And I cannot say it's a bad album, but I have a hard time calling it good... It has some songs that I really love and I can recognize my lovely Coldplay in them, but when I heard this one... I'm sorry, but I couldn't believe that this was on a Coldplay album. And I seriously don't know how Rihanna comes into the picture. I'm really sorry for shouting out my opinion here, I know I should be talking about the lyrics, but frankly, there's not much to say about them. For me, this song is not Coldplay. I've always been a Coldplay fan and I always will be. But this song pissed me off so much, I don't know how to take it if Coldplay decides to go this way now. How could they do this? Why would they want to pretend they are a pop band instead of an alternative group with a completely unique sound - and, let me add, amazing lyrics? I completely agree with some people before me. It's breaking my heart to leave a comment like this about a Coldplay song, but this is garbage. An uncreative, uncommunicative, uninteresting piece of some kind of music. And this way, the opposite of all the Coldplay songs from the previous albums. |

| "For a sunrise or a sunset, you're either coming or you just left, but you're always on the way" is one of my all-time favourite Bright Eyes lines. | |
