Coldplay - Moon Music (October 4, 2024) Album • Page 11

do we think chris will release solo albums after

 

gave this one i think my second listen and it has some deeply embarrassing stuff (please never rap again chris) but also some stuff that rules. love the opener, good feelings has a fun bass part, and the rainbow emoji song is fantastic lol

 

yeah rainbow is also great. if thats what the musical album sounds like im down

 

I'd love a whole album alternating between songs like "When I Need A Friend" and "".

 

Just saw Coldplay for the first time last night, quite the spectacle but might be one of the worst set lists I’ve seen a major act do. Looks like it’s been pretty similar the whole tour and it’s my fault for not doing research first…but dedicating 9 songs to Moon Music/MOTS was certainly a choice.

The energy level in the crowd was so muted for the newer material that it really made the set feel uneven.

 

I get that people want to hear the songs they want to hear, but I always have to shake my head at concertgoers getting salty about a band playing songs from their new record on a tour specifically billed as being in support of said new record. It’s the Music of the Spheres tour, did you really not expect a bunch of songs from the Music of the Spheres albums?

 

I was expecting a 5-6 songs from the last two records…for half the show to be those tracks felt a bit much considering both albums were not good.

still a spectacle and glad to check them off my list, but def a one and done act. Annoyed me more that apparently they sound checked Square One, Hurts Like Heaven, and Lovers in Japan…and still left in the Moon Music tracks where 85% of the crowd was dead.

 

The fact that they’ve been using the same rainbow/color spectrum aesthetic going back to Mylo 14 years ago for their tour promos has just tricked my brain that it’s just been one continuous stadium tour this entire time.

 

Looking at the set list, I take more issue with the song choice itself than with the number of songs pulled from the most recent albums. And I think the worst song choices are actually from older releases. Like, I’d much rather get “Higher Power” or “Good Feelings” than “Hymn for the Weekend” or “Something Just Like This.”

 

The other issue is that the set is weirdly short given how big their catalog is now and how expensive stadium tours are. Should be 30 songs at least.

 

Agreed, it felt very short compared to recent stadium tours. These tickets were more expensive than the face value for Cowboy Carter or the Kendrick tour and both of those shows felt like bigger productions and had longer sets.

Happy I got to see them but like j said prob would hold off again unless they did an eras type tour maybe.

 

Yeah, it's not like everything has to be the Eras Tour, but Taylor did 45 songs a night on that fucking thing. If you're going to charge stadium-level prices, you've got to pump up your numbers!

 

Also the fact the setlist hasn't shifted much from when I saw them back in 2022. Not that I had a hope of attending any of their Dublin shows but lads, you're a band with 10 albums, act like it.

 

great memes today

 

I've been having an absolute field day on twitter these last 18 hours. I'm HOWLINGGGGG at my screen!

 

The best one.
