Is this for real? It’s a joke, right?

Coldplay premiered this Friday morning, November 27th, online the official music video for their latest single “Adventure of a Lifetime”, which will appear on their forthcoming seventh studio album “A Head Full of Dreams”, out December 4th. The music video was directed by Mat Whitecross and it features only computer-animated footage. And NOT of the Coldplay band members looking ‘futuristic cool’, but of monkeys in the jungle. Say what!? That’s correct, the “Adventure of a Lifetime” vid features monkeys in their habitat dancing and singing to the new Coldplay up-lifting single.

The plot? A monkey will find one day a Beats portable speaker laying on the ground and the infectious music of Coldplay’s new single playing will make its brain, and those of its entire tribe, evolve to the point everybody will learn to dance and sing in a matter of seconds. They’ll impress with synchronized choreographies, impromptu ‘cool’ dance moves, singing the right “Adventure of a Lifetime” words on track, and playing musical instruments - which they’ll find mysteriously waiting for them in a quite area of the jungle - as if they were ‘pro’ people. The unexpected “MV” will end with more dancing; a big monkey flash mob. Oh my!

Not that I have anything against monkeys, in fact, I think they're cute, but "A Head Full of Dreams" is said to be the very last Coldplay album ever, and if the "Adventure of a Lifetime" music video is going to be one of the band's last, I really want it to be iconic and not bizarre like this monkey "MV" is, you know what I mean? This is cute, I know, but I won't be wanting to see it again, believe me.

What do you think of the video?

Here it is! The full video for Adventure Of A Lifetime, the first single from the new album, A Head Full Of Dreams (out December 4).
