Coldplay's frontman Chris Martin draws inspiration from a familiar place for "feelslikeimfallinginlove," a song so tight there isn't even room for spaces between the words. He'd been in a relationship with actress Dakota Johnson since October 2017, and the song captures that exhilarating, vulnerable feeling of falling head over heels – perhaps a rekindled spark or a reflection on their enduring love. The song starts subtly, with a touch of electronica gradually giving way to a steady beat and Martin's emotive vocals. It builds steadily, morphing into an anthem with a powerful chorus. Here's a peek behind the creative process: The songwriters are: All four Coldplay band members. Swedish pop maestro Max Martin, known for hits with Katy Perry, Taylor Swift, and The Weeknd. He brings his production magic, having previously worked on Coldplay's 2021 album, Music Of The Spheres. Chris Martin's daughter, Apple Martin. She adds her songwriting touch, following her work on Coldplay's "Let Somebody Go" with Selena Gomez and her vocal contributions to other Coldplay tracks. The electro singer-songwriter Jon Hopkins. He's a longtime collaborator with Coldplay, adding his signature touch. The American musician and artist Tim Rutili, who rounds out the diverse songwriting team. Max Martin shared production duties alongside Oscar Holter, Bill Rahko, Daniel Green, and Michael Ilbert. Coldplay debuted "feelslikeimfallinginlove" live on June 16, 2024, during their Music Of The Spheres World Tour stop in Budapest. They released it as the lead single from their 10th album, Moon Music, five days later. Coldplay's music video for "feelslikeimfallinginlove" is a beautiful tribute to inclusivity. Directed by Ben Mor, who also worked on their "Hymn For The Weekend" video with Beyoncé, it features two powerful elements. Actress, writer, and storyteller Natasha Ofili (The Politician) takes center stage, performing a captivating American Sign Language interpretation of the song. The video also showcases the talents of the deaf members of El Sistema Venezuela's Coro de Manos Blancas (White Hands Choir). This world-renowned performing arts ensemble from Barquisimeto uses Venezuelan Sign Language (LSV) to bring the music to life. The visual concludes with Coldplay performing the song live at the Odeon of Herodes Atticus in Athens, Greece. The release date of July 1, 2024, adds another layer of significance, coinciding with the start of Disability Pride Month.
I know that this could hurt me bad I know that this could feel like that But I just can't stop Let my defences drop I know that I was born to kill Any angel on my windowsill But it's so dark inside I throw the windows wide I know, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la I know, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la Still, I don't let go And fields of flowers grow Oh, it feels like I'm fallin' in love Maybe for the first time Baby, it's my mind you blow It feels like I'm fallin' in love You're throwin' me a lifeline This is for a lifetime, I know I know that in this kind of scene Of two people there's a spark between One gets torn apart One gets a broken heart I know, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la I know, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la Still, I don't let go And fields of flowers grow Oh, it feels like I'm fallin' in love Maybe for the first time Baby, it's my mind you blow It feels like I'm fallin' in love You're throwin' me a lifeline This is for a lifetime, I know Ooh Ooh (feels like) Whoa It feels like I'm fallin' in love You're throwin' me a lifeline Oh, now for the first time I know I'm not alone Ah-la-la, la-la, lo-lee-lo Ah-la-la, la-la, lo-lee-lo Ah-la-la, la-la, lo-lee-lo, oh Ah-la-la, la-la, lo-lee-lo Ah-la-la, la-la, lo-lee-lo Ah-la-la, la-la, lo-lee-lo, oh
