Zane Lowe has premiered the latest Coldplay track, titled “Everglow.” The somber track follows up “Adventure of a Lifetime,” and it’s our latest preview of new album A Head Full of Dreams which arrives December 4 via Parlophone/Atlantic.
Martin tells Lowe on the latter’s Beats 1 radio show:
I was in the ocean one day with this surfer guy, who spoke just like you’d imagine a surfer guy to speak … He was like, ‘Yo dude, I was doing this thing the other day man, it gave me this total everglow!’ I was like, ‘What an amazing word!’ Then the song came completely out. To me, it’s about – whether it’s a loved one or a situation or a friend or a relationship that’s finished, or someone’s passed away – I was thinking about, after you’ve been through the sadness of something, you also get this everglow. That’s what it’s about.
