Après Adventure Of A Lifetime, Birds et (avec Beyoncé), Coldplay a choisi Up&Up comme étant le nouveau single tiré de l’album A Head Full of Dreams.
Le groupe britannique emmené par Chris Martin a dévoilé le clip associé au single et réalisé par par Vania Heymann et Gal Muggia. On peut dire que Coldplay a vu les choses en grand avec beaucoup d’illusions d’optique.
Tout au long du clip, on y découvre des images sublimes comme des baleines dans le ciel de New-York, l’ombre d’un aigle sous l’océan, un tunnel dans l’espace ou encore un enfant qui se balance en orbite autour de la Terre.
Les paroles de Up&Up
Fixing up a car to drive in it again
Searching for the water, hoping for the rain
Up and up
Up and upDown upon the canvas, working meal to meal
Waiting for a chance to pick on your orange field
Up and up
Up and upSee a pearl form a diamond in the rough
See a bird soaring high above the flood
It’s in your blood
It’s in your bloodUnderneath the storm, an umbrella is saying,
« Sitting with the poison takes away the pain. »
Up and up
Up and up, sayingWe’re gonna get it, get it together right now
Gonna get it, get it together somehow
Gonna get it, get it together and flower
We’re gonna get it, get it together, I know
Gonna get it, get it together and flow
Gonna get it, get it together and go
Up and up and upLying in the gutter, aiming for the moon
Trying to empty out the ocean with a spoon
Up and up
Up and upHow come people suffer? How come people part?
How come people struggle? How come people break your heart?
Break your heart, ohYes, I wanna grow, yes, I wanna feel
Yes, I wanna know, show me how to heal it up
Heal it up, ohTry and see the forest, there in every seed
Angels in the marble waiting to be freed
Just need love
Just need loveWhen the going is rough, saying
We’re gonna get it, get it together right now
Gonna get it, get it together somehow
Gonna get it, get it together and flower
We’re gonna get it, get it together, I know
Gonna get it, get it together and flow
Gonna get it, get it together and goBut you can say what is, or fight for it
Close your mind or take a risk
You can say, « It’s mine, » and clench your fist
Or see each sunrise as a giftWe’re gonna get it, get it together right now
Gonna get it, get it together somehow
Gonna get it, get it together and flower
We’re gonna get it, get it together, I know
Gonna get it, get it together and flow
Gonna get it, get it together and goUp and up and up
Fixing up a car to drive in it again
When you’re in pain, when you think you’ve had enough
Don’t ever give up
Don’t ever give upBelieve in love
