Coldplay's lead single from their Higher Power album finds Chris Martin trying to maximize his potential as he finds common ground through the power of love: I'm so happy that I'm alive Happy I'm alive at the same time as you The power of music: I'm buzzin' night after night after night This joy is electric And divine power: When for so long I'd been down on my knees Then your love song saved me over and over
Coldplay wrote the bright '80s-inspired pop song with: Denise Carite (Katy Perry's "Pendulum"). Argentinian jazz pianist Federico Vindver, who co-wrote all but one track on Kanye West's Jesus Is King. Swedish pop producer Max Martin.
The band recorded the song in London, Stockholm, and Los Angeles with Max Martin and his fellow Swede, Oscar Holter. It is Coldplay's first collaboration with Martin, whom they described as "a true wonder of the universe." Chris Martin first met the hitmaker at a Rihanna concert in the mid-2010s and they became friends.
