Coldplay – Princess Of China (Ft. Rihanna)


Were friends? Good, then we can talk honestly and openly regarding delicate topics. The fact is Coldplay is changing. They’re evolving into something new, exciting and different. Without a doubt they’re still Coldplay, but more expansive and unafraid to take risks for the sake of the music. I like that in a band, don’t you? Although I am nostalgic for the days of Parachutes and A Rush Of Blood To The Head I cannot ignore the fact that I still enjoy listening to Berryman/Buckland/Champion/Martin create music. The first release, “Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall” was evidence enough, then came “Paradise”, which is still stuck in my throat. Now, the third single has thrown me for a loop. With “Princess of China” you get more of a sense the boys of Coldplay are fearless and unafraid , and that Brian Eno is whispering raucous sweet nothings in their collective ear. But if what I’ve heard already is any indication of what to expect in the future then I can’t wait to hear more. And besides, what better way to illicit buzz than for an alternative band to enlist the stunning and vocally provocative Rihanna to lend a helping hand? The new album Mylo Xyloto drops October 23rd, and so far so good. Change is indeed a good thing. Long live Coldplay! Peace.
