This week I've re-explored Coldplay a bit, particularly with our Unreleased, B-Sides and Rarities that we put up on Thursday. So while we're riding that wave, its quite fitting to post this well-known song in its acoustic form. "Princess Of China" was by no means one of my favorite tracks from 20122s Mylo Xyloto. In fact the duo felt more forced together in the original track than anticipated. This acoustic version, however, audibly portrays Rihanna and Chris Martin in perfect symmetry. The acoustic layer is lovely, while the subtle bass and harmonics echoing [...]

Can't say we are the biggest Rihanna fans (though we respect her as an artist) but there is nothing that could have prepared us for what you are about to listen. In an effortless manner, Andre Sobota’s take on “Princess of China” and lets both vocals from Chris Martin and rihanna shine through through a delicate window of progressive house. It is not the banger you want to start with, but rather that last song to play the night out. Enjoy Coldplay & Rihanna – Princess Of China (Andre Sobota Remix)

If you're looking for the perfect song to wind down a crazy weekend with, look no further. Andre Sobota's take on "Princess of China" features the unmodified vocals of Chris Martin and Rihanna with a delicate, progressive house touch. This isn't a track you'll typically hear in a club or festival set; instead you appreciate it at the perfect volume with a nice set of headphones on. The song's natural rhythm and crisp percussion work makes it refreshingly different from the artificial synth sound we're used to hearing. Sobota is a newcomer to the legendary Pryda Friends label, and is definitely a name to look out [...]

Uscirà questo venerdì 20 aprile nelle radio il nuovo singolo dei Coldplay featuring Rihanna . Princess of China è stata pensata volutamente per la voce di Rihanna, come ha ammesso proprio il leader del gruppo, Chris Martin.

Per i fan dei Coldplay c'è anche un'altra data da non perdere, quella del 24 maggio 2012 allo Stadio Olimpico di Torino, unica data italiana della band. [...]
Come anticipato da Tommyromi , We Found love di Rihanna ha raggiunto la vetta della Billboard. Era facile immaginarlo, dopo la scalata impressionante delle scorse settimane. L'uscita del video e il successo di pubblico del brano hanno fatto il resto. Scende così alla numero 2 Adele con "Someone Like You", mentre salgono alla 3 LMFAO con Sexy And I Know It. Quarta posizione per "Moves Like Jagger" dei Maroon 5 feat. Christina Aguilera e alla quinta Foster the People con Pumped Up Kicks. Ritroviamo i LMFAO MFAO Featuring Lauren Bennett [...]

To ensure that their fifth album is a success, after critics have insinuated on their songs being redundant in style, Coldplay have brought in the big guns to ensure at least two hits on the album, considering the first single will be set aflame no matter what it sounds like. So, Rihanna came in on one of the better tracks on the album to lay her vocals on a track by a band known for their melodies more than they are for their pipes. The result is a strongly structured song with poignant lyrics and pop zing. Coldplay should consider hiring vocalists [...]

Das neue Coldplay-Album "Mylo Xyloto" ist geleaked und damit auch die Kollaboration zwischen den britischen Stadion-Popern und der amerkanischen R&B-Queen Rihanna. Chris Martin nannte den Song "Princess of China" kürzlich sein "favorit bit" vom ganzen Album, das am 23. Oktober in die Läden kommt. Ob Rihanna auch so begeistert ist? Fakt ist, mit der Kollaboration betreten Coldplay das Europop-Parkett. Man glaubt es kaum, aber es ist ja auch mittlerweile fast der einzige Weg in die Top Ten der Single-Charts. "Princess of China" wird durch markante Europop-Synthies geprägt mit [...]

So, Coldplay's track with Rihanna, Princess of China, has leaked and it's causing some contention between fans. I is a rather unlikely pairing but one that has proven to be something rather exciting for both. Some call it too pop laced and devoid of Coldplay's usual edge, Rihanna on the song doesn't help much either. I think it's a strong contender from what I've heard off the album, it's different and Coldplay's new direction will see them gain more exposure and now a song with Rihanna? It's an undoubted fact. The 24th of October is almost [...]

When the tracklisting for Coldplay 's Mylo Xyloto made it's premiere a few weeks back, the one track most eyes went straight to was Track 10, a song entitled "Princess of China" that also bore the additional tag of "featuring Rihanna", two words that stirred up all kinds of on-line frenzy as fans, and some non-fans, tried to wrap their minds around the potential Pop Epic-ness (or potential Epic Failure) such a major collaboration could provide. Today saw the track make it's inevitable way to the World Wide Web and, unsurprisingly, [...]
Coldplay recruits Rihanna for an important track of Mylo Xyloto.

This collaboration between superstar stadium rockers Coldplay and pop queen Rihanna , which will be on their forthcoming Mylo Xyloto album (released October 24th), had been highly anticipated in many quarters, and now the audio has surfaced online, we can see what they manged to cook up together. "Princess Of China" starts with some interesting glitchy synths, but never fear, in swoops the all-engulfing reverb covered guitar and a big old drumbeat and as expected, Coldplay have produced another song perfect for their festival headlining, arena playing sound. Chris Martin has called this [...]

Coldplay goes hip-hop? Not entirely but on "Princess of China" featuring the princess of hip-hop, Rihanna, Chris Martin goes heavy on the beats that'll make your head nod. Check out the track down below which appears on their forthcoming album, Mylo Xyloto , which is in stores on October 24th.

Coldplay called up Esquire's Sexiest Woman Alive for this track from their upcoming LP 'Mylo' in stores October 24th. "The album is designed as a whole piece. It has boy and girl lead characters and top of our list for the girl part was Rihanna, but it took a while to pluck up the courage to ask her. We did a show in Las Vegas and I met her and said, 'Do you think there's any chance?' I was very Hugh Grant-like and spluttering about it. She has such an [...]
