Remember when Coldplay was hinting at a very stripped down album after Viva la Vida that they even teased would be released in 2009?
These ("Midnight" & "Magic") sound like they could be the tunes/album that they were referring too.
This song just sounds hokey. The synth is goofy. The falsetto isn't that strong and seems fall too low in the mix. Pretty meh. Not too sold on it. Sounds like a Phrazes for the Young b-side (forgot how fucking cool that album was).
Remember hearing a lot of these jams at Coachella 2011 and just thinking how fucking cool they would sound recorded and produced. It is safe to say, they are well beyond my expectations.
I actually like the name, but it gives off a totally different connotation, which I think will hurt them. When they were testing new material out last summer, I rather enjoyed the stuff I heard. Still had that classic 60s pop sound with some added R&B flavor. This mixtape is iffy though.
