    When I worked at harris teeter stocking shelves they would play a handful of songs over and over. And Coldplay’s paradise was one of them. The song is entirely chorus. Imagine working for a job you fucking hate and theyre also playing

    PARAAA PARAAA PARADISE

    On loop 500 times in a row.

    Also lady gaga’s alejandro

    However, I recently saw glass animals live because my wife bought tickets. I was not a fan of their music before this show (sort of disliked “heat waves”) but their live show was really really good, with incredible stage design, vfx, and their songs sound much better live than over some crappy car speakers. And the band, I think, really adores their fans.

    So maybe Coldplay is a much better experience live

      I actually just got into glass animals not to long ago. My 5 yr old loves singing their songs, which I think is one of the reason I like em.

      Are they and Coldplay in the same circles?

        most definitely not in the same circles. I’m sure the 5 year old singing their songs is adorable aw

        definitely do NOT play anything from before Dreamland around the kid though… their older stuff has a much more… sultry… vibe to it

        edit: actually how to be a human being is fine it’s really just ZABA (their first album) that I would be worried about a 5 year old singing lol

          Oh ya, I definitely vetted em before letting them listen. It’s funny, I think of a lot of the music I was allowed to listen to growing up. I listen now and I’m like “Why would my folks let me hear this?”
