    Their fourth release will stay constantly and forever in my playlist. It's beautiful when you know already from a new single also a new record from one of your favourite band is gonna survive the test of time.
    Yeah, music is a matter of personal taste, sure, but as far as I'm concerned, Coldplay DO IT for me so well.
    Welcome back guys.
    Thanx for shooting the video in Italy, too.
