I Used To Be Love Drunk and Now I'm Really Single

Ok I get that.
Moral of story. Don't date models.
Or anyone for that matter of fact.
Ok so at first listen, first 30 seconds I wasn't too into it. It's better than anything I think on the last album because this has more of a happy dance beat to it. Unlike the old album which I really thought was missing on the old one, knowing Martin. But as soon as it gets into the chorus it's pretty good. I mean the lyrics aren't profound. The verses could be stronger but all together the chorus is really strong. This drum beat is from another song though. Fuck now that's going to bother me. Yeah I really don't like the first verse. But after the first chorus it's good. Maybe because I get it. I understand the walking around, slipping in and out of conciousness, the alcohol. I get it.
HOLY SHIT I HATE THE KEY CHANGE! NO KEY CHANGES MARTIN! THIS IS NOT A FUCKING MUSICAL!
Ok I just really needed to get that out of system.
But I can see this being good live with the crowd. I get that one too.
I think I know all the lyrics on the third listen. I mean it doesn't have that danger labels are really looking for. But it's dancing. I seem to think there is 5 am inspiration in here somewhere.
Also totally forgot about it. Thank you for the email Paul. Hahaha.
Oh god I get it. I needed this like 10 months ago. Thanks guys.
Also Martin I think you should get over how cool it is to sing harmonies with yourself. I used to think it was cool, now it pisses me off especially since you have other dudes in your band that love singing. I also wish you involved the guys more in the writing process. I mean Paul was barely there and the music knowledge he has of composing music is more than people would expect. He was going to go to school in LA to study composing until Martin corrupted him. But live I know the guys will be backing you up more because you can't sing all that without awkward breaks for breathing. As overrated as breathing is, it is necessary.
Not posting this till I finish MJ post. Sorry this MJ post isn't as important.
Also if that's the single, I'm concerned about the rest of the album... But I still love you and appreciate your music.
Love,
All The Single Ladies

Ps. the drum beat sounds better if you swing your head fast and get that noise when you like cover and uncover your ears quickly. Do it. Makes the song better. I swear.
3:15 what is with the random scream? HAHAHAHA! What is this nonsense...
