Cooperation with the K-pop idols was also described as “the most natural collaboration in the world” by the frontman.
Coldplay has a lot on their plate right now, but Chris Martin believes that nothing would ever equal their collaboration with BTS.
In a new consultation with Audacy on Wednesday, the band’s vocalist stated of “My Universe,” the band’s 2021 collaboration with the K-pop phenoms, “I don’t think we’ll ever be able to match the BTS surprise” (April 20). “Even we were taken aback by that.”
The Music of the Spheres single debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in October, becoming the band’s second and sixth No. 1 singles.
“From the first time it was discussed I was like, ‘How could that ever work?’ to the song itself arriving and me thinking, ‘That could be for BTS,’ to now it feels like the most original partnership in the world,” Martin concluded. It’s taught me the importance of keeping an open mind at all times. Since you never know what life or music will throw at you.”
However, just because Martin and his bandmates don’t believe. They can come up with a better surprise than collaborating with the boy band, doesn’t mean they won’t try. In another part of the conversation. He disclosed that the band is currently working on “three more albums” following Music of the Spheres in 2021.
“They each have their own thing going on,” the singer teased, adding, “One of them is a musical we want to do as a movie.” That, I believe, will not be completed by then. As a result, we won’t release that soundtrack until the film is completed.”
While Martin and co. are on the road for their continuing Music of the Spheres World Tour. BTS recently completed a sold-out Las Vegas residency in preparation for the release of their yet-to-be-titled sixth studio album.
