![]() For its guts, Everyday Life is a gift – hard to deem it anything less than Coldplay’s best. Coldplay have won: it sounds like they’ve stopped making music for anyone else. It’s completely fearless.Įveryday Life makes room for violence and romance, for memories of the band’s first anthems and a future with braver singalongs. Guitars twang freely – and between harmonies, Martin gleefully gives in to sighs and screams. Then you're struck by "Champion Of The World”, which becomes the best track. It’s not “Fix You” or “The Scientist” – this sounds less crowd pleasing and more confessional. ![]() So many of Coldplay’s songs can be loosely attached to a particular person, but with the soft chorus, “When I close my eyes / I see you / Time just deepens, sweetens, and mends old friends” against a longing acoustic guitar, this one is their most laser focused. After universal strife comes intimacy in the form of “Old Friends”.
