When two of the greatest bands of the 21st century are finally coming together for a song, all you can really say is oh me, oh my!
(Then you catch your breath, and then you say some more stuff… which may or may not make sense, because you’re just so damn excited.)
After much anticipation and speculation, Coldplay announced their new single “My Universe” featuring BTS will be dropping on September 24. Both BTS and Coldplay just shared snippets of the single on TikTok, where lead singer Chris Martin can be seen having the time of his life singing along with BTS in the studio.
Don’t mind me if you catch me chanting, “YOU! YOU ARE! MY UNIVERSE!” anywhere and everywhere for the next few weeks. Based off these clips, “My Universe” sounds like it’ll be another feel-good hit full of passion and pure love. It’ll be inclusive, uplifting, and one of those songs you just want to listen to over and over again after it ends. Bring it on!
(On a very personal level, it truly warms my heart that Coldplay and BTS finally came together for such an amazing collaboration. Both groups have similar missions, and not only did they just record a song together, but they were physically IN the studio together too. Oh, if I could’ve just been a fly on the wall…)
“My Universe” will be a part of Coldplay’s ninth studio album Music of the Spheres, out on October 15. You can pre-save “My Universe” here!
