Song Description : Magic by Coldplay

 

Okay so in this post I will share my favorite song, Magic by Coldplay. It is a song from the album Ghost Stories. The song "Magic" might just replace "Yellow" as one of their most-romantic songs. Fans everywhere wet their pants and then turned to their significant others to swoon, "This will be the song we dance to at our wedding."

"Magic," is more mellow than songs like their arena-shaking "Viva La Vida" or "Every Teardrop is a Waterfall."

What's nice about "Magic" is the seemingly double-meaning behind the lyrics. Is the couple in question together or apart? There doesn't appear to be an easy answer. Take a look:

Call it magic
Call it true
I call it magic, when I'm with you
And I just got broken
Broken into two
Still I call it magic, when I'm next to you

It seems a little like the girl in question was the one to break him, suggesting they aren't together anymore. The song ends with lines that suggest whatever they've been through, they've managed to stay together.
See the next line :

And if you were to ask me
After all that we've been through
"Still believe in magic?"
Well yes, I do
Oh yes, I do

If that's the case, the song becomes especially powerful and almost too sweet to be true. Then again, hasn't that melodramatic sweetness always been one of the things Coldplay got popular for?.
