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 for their music as it seems to work very well on this one. Now, imagine if “The Scientist” was warbled by Jill Scott!
