The Song ‘0’ by Coldplay – Dorianne’s goosebump moment
“Hi! I’m Dorianne from Mauritius and my goosebump moment is how I met my boyfriend. So, it was 5 years ago, he was still my crush and we sat down on the floor one night while listening to the song ‘O’ by Coldplay and we were talking about very personal stuff. So, it was kind of intimate for us to talk about these things. And one year ago, he asked me to become his girlfriend, which I accepted. So, it was sort of a victory for me! A few weeks ago, we listened to this song again and we were so emotional that we hugged and cried and fell on the floor, so it was kind of funny but romantic at the same time. The specific lyrics we remember from this song are “fly on, ride through, maybe one day I can fly with you”. And yeah, today we are flying together! So yeah, this is my story.”
Poignant Lyrics and Heartfelt Melody
Coldplay has done it again! The British rock band’s latest single, ‘O’, is sure to tug on your heartstrings. The song, taken from their sixth studio album Ghost Stories (2014), is a deeply moving track that features heartfelt lyrics and an unforgettable melody.
Frontman Chris Martin expresses the vulnerability of love in this beautifully crafted song. Martin sings: “I’m so scared but I don’t show it / I can never say what I really mean” — capturing the raw emotion of being in love. He also touches on the idea of not wanting to let go: “And all these moments keep slipping away / And I just can’t take it” — portraying how hard it can be to move on after a relationship ends.
The melancholic chord progression adds to the poignancy of the track, as well as its dreamy atmosphere. It starts off slowly with piano and strings before building up into a powerful crescendo of drums and guitar riffs. This unique combination gives “O” a hauntingly beautiful feel that will stay with you long after you’ve heard it.
The video for “O” further enhances the song’s message. It follows two lovers as they go through life together, experiencing both joy and pain along the way. The visuals are stunning, featuring sweeping shots of nature and intimate close-ups that reflect the couple’s journey perfectly.
Overall, Coldplay has created something truly special with “O”. It is a masterful blend of poignant lyrics, tender melodies, and breathtaking visuals that will leave you feeling inspired every time you hear it. In Martin’s own words: “It’s about everybody trying to make sense of their lives. We wanted to capture those feelings in a song.”
