Coldplay have shared ‘feelslikeimfallinginlove’, the first song to be unveiled from their forthcoming album Moon Music.
The upbeat, woozy track comes after the band teased its release last month. Produced by Max Martin, it’s anchored by a powerful chorus which sees Chris Martin sing: “It feels like I’m falling in love / Maybe for the first time / Baby, it’s in my mind / You blow / It feels like I’m falling in love / You’re throwing me a lifeline / This is for a lifetime / I know.”
Moon Music arrives on October 4 and is also produced by Martin. But it may be Coldplay’s last, after singer Chris Martin previously said that the band would stop making music in 2025.
“Well I know I can tell you: our last proper record will come out in 2025 and after that I think we will only tour,” Martin said during a 2021 interview with Jo Wiley. “Maybe we’ll do some collaborative things but the Coldplay catalogue, as it were, finishes then.”
Moon Music will be pressed on a world-first 140g EcoRecord LP, made entirely from recycled plastic bottles. It is expected to see an 85 per cent reduction in carbon emissions compared to standard vinyl production.
It comes after the band recently shared a new update from their eco-friendly world tour, revealing that they have reduced their emissions by a huge 59 per cent.
Coldplay performed ‘feelslikeimfallinginlove’ live for the first time earlier this month at the Puskas Arena in Budapest, Hungary. It follows debuting new acoustic song ‘All My Love’ at the end of their Athens gig.
The band’s Music of the Spheres tour is continuing into 2024 and will see the band headlining the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury later this month.
