"All My Love" is a song by British rock band Coldplay, from their tenth studio album, Moon Music. It was released as the record's third single on 4 October 2024 through Parlophone in the United Kingdom and Atlantic Records in the United States. Chris Martin has stated that it is to be the last proper single of the band's career.[1][2]
Background and release
[edit]On 9 June 2024, during the Music of the Spheres World Tour show at the Olympic Stadium in Athens, Greece the band performed a preview of "All My Love" as "Biutyful" transition.[3] The song was later annunced as the final single from their tenth studio album Moon Music and from their entire caree by Chris Martin in a interview with Rolling Stone:[4]
"All My Love" is really the final Coldplay single. After this, there’s no more singles, because we don’t want to do that. Of all of the songs that have dropped through really quickly, this is maybe the one that I just don’t understand how it happened. I’m so grateful for this song. I don’t know if and when it will connect with who or not, but for me, it’s a really important song. It’s like, after everything we’ve been through, you have all my love. That’s it. That’s how we feel about life and the world and our fans and our critics and everybody. I didn’t really have to do anything on that song. I just played it. I don’t know how to explain that. Even when I’m playing it now, I’m like:"how did that come through?"
Composition
[edit]The song was written by the band members with John Metcalfe and produced by Max Martin, Oscar Holter, Bill Rahko, Daniel Green, Michael Ilbert and Ilya Salmanzadeh.[5][6] The song also featured Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow's son Moses Martin as songwriter.[7] The song was described as a piano ballad with Beatlesque sounds.[8][9]
Critical reception
[edit]Emma Harrison of Clash described the song as a "beautiful piano-driven song" with Elton John and The Beatles music inspiration. Although Harrison found the lyrics "a smidge earnest", she stated that " for some reason it works and who could deny Coldplay’s enthusiasm for those all-important loved up vibes when they are so disarmingly charming".[9]
