Everyday Life is the eighth studio album by English Alternative Rock band Coldplay, released in 2019.It is a double album, divided into two sides titled Sunrise and Sunset. Sonically, it is likely the band's most experimental album to date, with its influences ranging from classical music and jazz to African and Middle Eastern music. The album's lyrical themes tackle unity and peace as well more politically charged topics that the band hadn't tackled previously, such as racism and police brutality. Additional musicians from other ethnicities also contributed for the music."Orphans" and "Arabesque" were released on the same day as lead singles for the album. Although the band didn't tour for the album due to environmental concerns, the band played the album in its entirety live in Jordan during its release, with the entire performance live-streamed on the band's YouTube channel.The album is also notable for being the first Coldplay release to include profanity and be marked with a "Parental Advisory" sticker.

Darker and Edgier: Compared to the light, hopeful A Head Full of Dreams, this album has many dark songs that soberly explain global problems like militarism and police brutality.

Protest Song
 Everyday Life (Music) / int_16d8476f
comment
Protest Song: "Trouble In Town" is about how frequent Police Brutality and racism is rampant in Western countries. The sample by the end of the song taken from a Philadelphia incident involving racial profiling in 2013 drives this point home. "Arabesque" tackles the divide between different groups of people, despite we all sharing the same blood. "Guns", which is a Take That! to the United States' obsession with firearms.

comment
Precision F-Strike: Given how clean Coldplay's lyrics usually are, Everyday Life implemented the F-word enough to get a Parental Advisory label. The first example is in a field recording of unlawful police detainment played in the crescendo to "Trouble in Town". Next is "Arabesque"; having sung the line "We share in the same blood" in the chorus, Chris chooses to punctuate the end of the song with "Same fucking blood!" And to top it off, Chris drops three more in "Guns", once in each chorus and another in the second verse.

Shout-Out: "Champion of the World" contains an interpolation of "Los Angeles, Be Kind" by Owl John, a side project from Frightened Rabbit's Scott Hutchison. The song was dedicated to him, as he committed suicide a year prior to the album's release. The album cover is a homage to the Original Dixieland Jazz Band, which is considered the first jazz band in history.

Hidden Track: The physical release of Everyday Life features a chain of eight hidden tracks in between the Sunrise and Sunset halves which play a field recording of Westminster Chimes and other ambient noise. Each one is represented by a single character ultimately spelling "GOD=LOVE"; if one wishes to get technical, this now means the band has three hidden tracks titled "O" following that of Ghost Stories.
