October 17, 201113 yr Author I knew it'd be amazing before I heard it, and it certainly delivered :D I'd have liked Rihanna to have featured for longer, but it's great how it is anyway. This could actually go top 10 once the album's released, seeing as both singles have debuted in the iTunes top 10, and Rihanna is pretty much instant hit :D
October 17, 201113 yr It's good, not great, but it'll definitely grow. I am impressed with it though :)
October 21, 201113 yr Adore this - really hope this is a single! Though as said, I wouldn't be surprised if this track charts highly regardless.
October 21, 201113 yr According to Rihanna Daily, this IS the third single for Coldplay. :D (But reading the report back, it just seems that they only mean it's available to cherry pick from the album) Billboard is reporting that Rihanna’s collaboration with Coldplay – “Princess of China” – will be released as the group’s next single! Great choice! The song will be officially released on October 25th and will be promoting their new album “Mylo Xyloto”. So far the album’s first two singles, “Paradise” and “Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall,”have sold a combined 1.14 million copies, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
November 11, 201113 yr I REALLY like this! Rihanna sounds great as always. The song is quite simple but so catchy whilst also being typically Coldplay. I've played it more than We Found Love in fact.

December 3, 201113 yr They need more of the 'could've been a princess...' section. Only having it at that one part of the track is not good enough for me Imma fraid. It's the catchiest part of the song. Still think the track is brilliant though.
December 30, 201113 yr Ooh, I really like it! I wasn't too sure whether Rihanna and Coldplay on the same track would work, but it has. I was not too but.. i mean.. they´re both great artists...
March 25, 201213 yr Author Next single for Coldplay :D RiRi as "Princess of China" on the set of the Coldplay video shoot.
March 25, 201213 yr I saw her post a picture of herself looking oriental on Twitter t'other day. I'm VERY pleased this is a single. It is (in true stereotypical rubbish gai fashion) my favourite Coldplay song.

It is (in true stereotypical rubbish gai fashion) my favourite Coldplay song. Rubbish gai. Glad it is being released properly though and Rihanna looks amazing as usual in that vid shot.
March 25, 201213 yr Absolutely LOVE this song (although I have enjoyed Coldplay's singles this era, easily my fave era from them) so I'm really pleased to see it be a single. Rihanna looks stunning as well, can't wait to see the video for it!
April 25, 201213 yr A video of Rihanna's part of the video (assuming it's not the final edit) is here.
April 25, 201213 yr It says at the bottom it's the footage that they'll use for the song when Coldplay do it live. I'm hoping the actual video will be a lot more interesting, personally.
