Coldplay and Selena Gomez have a song together called “Let Somebody Go,” and have just released the trippy, Inception-like music video.
Coldplay and Selena Gomez just teamed up for a heartbreaking song about letting go. Their song was officially released on October 15, 2021, as part of the British group’s ninth studio album Music of the Spheres. Max Martin, Oscar Holter, Rik Simpson, Daniel Green, and Bill Rahko produced the song. It also serves as the third official single off the album.
Dave Meyers directed the music video, filmed in October 2021. It was announced on February 3, and released on February 7, 2022, in a black-and-white, Inception-like format.
Here’s the official lyrics for their song:
We had that kind of love
I thought that it would never end
Oh, my lover, oh, my other, oh, my friend
We talked around in circles and
We talked around and then
I loved you to the moon and back again
You gave everything this golden glow
Now turn off all the stars ’cause this I know
That it hurts like so
To let somebody go
All the storms we weathered
Everything that we went through
Now, without you, what on earth am I to do?
When I called the mathematicians and I ask them to explain
They said love is only equal to the pain
And when everything was going wrong
You could turn my sorrow into song
Oh, it hurts like so
To let somebody go
To let somebody go
Oh-oh (oh-oh)
Oh-oh
(Let somebody, let somebody go) yeah
Oh, oh-oh (oh), when you love somebody (oh)
When you love somebody (oh)
Got to let somebody know
Oh, oh-oh (oh), when you love somebody (oh)
When you love somebody (oh)
Got to let somebody know
So, when you love somebody
When you love somebody
Then it hurts like so
To let somebody go
It hurts like so
To let somebody go
But you’re still with me, now I know
(Let somebody, let somebody go)
Oh-oh (let somebody, let somebody go)
But you’re still with me, now I know
