I like it! I think it fits the song, its surreal dreamy feeling. So many things to look at, some details I wish they hadn't chosen but so far a great video.
Oh and too bad it's a shorter version but maybe a 7 mins video wouldn't be sellable but I'd like it.

I really like it, I think it's really clever and I agree it definitely fits the song.

I was expecting a happy video of the boys on bikes... So, I needed a moment to adjust. But yes, I like it. The surreal dreamy feeling....

Just seen it.
We had my Dads funeral today, so it was lovely to come back to that. I like it. It's surreal and happy, but somehow gives a message.
It's kind of put things back into perspective for me.
I love Coldplay.

I thought it was beautiful. Best combination of song and video concept since The Scientist.

I expected a very different video as well. However, this is how I would have expected an A Head Full Of Dreams video  lol

I like this review by NME. linkIn the following blog we will attempt to list, in order, all of the strange, surreal and symbolic things in the mind-boggling new Coldplay video for ‘Up & Up’ (which, by the way, is the track from their latest album, ‘A Head Full Of Dreams’, on which Noel Gallagher plays guitar). OK, let’s get on with it:
1. Turtle flying through subway station 2. Porpoises in the sky 3. People swimming in washing machines 4. Person swinging from satellite limb 5. Normal-sized girl fishing by tiny Golden Gate Bridge, or really enormous girl fishing by normal-sized Golden Gate Bridge, we just don’t know 6. Women on balcony looking directly out at constellations 7. Synchronized swimmers in teacup 8. Football match happening on cake shaped like a football pitch, possibly in a giant’s kitchen. Again, we just don’t know 9. Lady diving into clouds 10. Popcorn erupting from volcano, combining two of our greatest fears 11. Totally impractical skyscraper cereal 12. Inception-style world-bending 13. Massive Will Champion playing massive drums in a valley 14. Massive lady swimming above city 15. Bald eagle flying underwater 16. Boat soup 17. Huge Chris Martin lying all over fields, unknowingly causing untold devastation 18. Pasta skydivers 19. Flying manta ray, friend to surfers 20. Upside-down sky-boat 21. Big Jonny Buckland treading on fields and all wildlife in them 22. Cyclists scaling skyscrapers 23. Irresponsible baby clutching onto aeroplane wing 24. Person jumping off tortoise head into water 25. Mountain-sized Guy Berryman playing bass for his mountain friends 26. Car driving over city buildings 27. Big Will Champion again, this time on shiny archipelago 28. Car recklessly driving through mystery tunnel to space 29. Submarine-rider and general weirdo 30. Massive butterfly drinking from oil rig 31. Tiny elephants following big Hoover 32. Protestors by big house of cards 33. Colourful upside-down city hanging above sea 34. Washington Monument high-jump 35. Big girl 36. Wormholes parachuting. (Yes, seriously) 37. Big Guy Berryman again 38. Go-kart on the moon 39. City plagued by beautiful but obstructive and untameable flowers 40. Cosmic superhighway 41. Chris Martin leaning back on a mountain, possibly causing avalanches 42. Subway turtle 43. Underwater plane 44. Enormous poppies underneath tiny helicopters 45. Rocket people with a death wish 46. Large Johnny Buckland obstructing a plane’s flight path 47. Horses racing over the sea by a motorboat 48. Skiers on a huge snow pillow 49. Johnny B in the clouds again 50. Planes in a double world 51. Planets hovering above the pavement 52. Star tunnel 53. Someone swimming on the side of a car (this is our favourite image, by the way) 54. Guy Berryman properly way above cloud level. Like, what a tall dude 55. Someone trying to iron a waterfall, the idiot 56. Continent-sized swimmer raising sea level significantly 57. Chris Martin stamping on crops again, does he actually just hate farmers like 58. Subway window to distant galaxy 59. Flying jellyfish monster 60. Porpoises in the sky 61. Kids running to a horizon, with view of much broader horizon 62. Encore: washing machine swimmers 63. Drivers circling Saturn’s dust ring (a close second-favourite image) 64. Chris Martin even bigger than before, lying on the land with a plane flying past his ear 65. Model plane flying past a bookshelf on a mountain 66. The satellite swing again 67. Even bigger Will Champion on a tiny bit of land, where will he sleep and eat and stuff 68. People falling upwards 69. Person swimming through clouds
In all seriousness, the video makes important points about refugees, war and the environment – with shots of environmental destruction, refugees, and even Donald Trump's 'wall' – so make sure to give it a proper watch
