Soundz rating: 7.5/10
Moon Music, Coldplay’s latest album, feels to me like a musical journey toward hope, love, and the determination not to give up, even when the world seems overwhelming. What struck me immediately upon first listening is how Chris Martin and his band manage to bring a sense of comfort and positivity without it feeling forced.
The song “Feelslikeimfallinginlove” is a perfect example of the warmth the band tries to convey. It has a light, almost weightless feel that instantly carries you into an euphoric atmosphere. It reminds me of those early moments of falling in love, those moments when everything seems possible, and the world is momentarily perfect.
Smile Thanks to Coldplay
“Good Feelings” also brings a smile to my face. The rhythmic beats and playful melody give the song an infectious energy, almost as if Coldplay is inviting you to forget the worries of everyday life and just dance. Yet, it’s not all light and airy. Songs like “One World” show that the band also addresses larger societal issues. While this song may feel a bit superficial, I appreciate the intent: a call for unity and collaboration in times of division.
What makes Moon Music so special is the genuine emotion that can be heard in every song. Yes, some critics may say it’s too sweet, perhaps even naïve, but it’s that authenticity that resonates with me. In a world full of cynicism and negativity, Coldplay offers a counterpoint. It’s a reminder that hope and love, no matter how simple they may seem, are always worth fighting for.
For me, Moon Music is more than just an album; it’s a friend that stands by you in moments when you need it. It’s a musical hug, a reminder to always believe in the good – both in yourself and in the world around you.
Love,
Heavy E
