All My Love (Coldplay song)

"All My Love" (stylised in all caps) is a song by British rock band Coldplay. It was released on 4 October 2024 by Parlophone in the United Kingdom and Atlantic in the United States, serving as the third single from their tenth studio album, Moon Music. Chris Martin has stated it is meant to be the last proper single of the band's career.

Background and release

On 9 June 2024, during the Music of the Spheres World Tour show at the Olympic Stadium in Athens, Greece, the band performed a preview of "All My Love" as "Biutyful" transition. The song was later announced as the final single from their tenth studio album Moon Music and from their entire career by Chris Martin in an interview with Rolling Stone:

Composition

The song was written by all band members, with additional contribution from John Metcalfe and Moses Martin. Production was carried out by Max Martin, Oscar Holter, Bill Rahko, Daniel Green, Michael Ilbert and Ilya Salmanzadeh. It has been described as a piano ballad with Beatlesque sounds, drawing comparisons to works by Elton John as well.

Music video

A lyric video shot on iPhone and directed by Chris Candy was made available on 4 October 2024. It follows Chris Martin's alter ego Nigel Crisp, who buys a set of red balloons and gives them away while passing through the streets of Las Vegas. By evening, he runs out of balloons and sings "All My Love" for karaoke at the Dino's dive bar. The official video is dedicated to American actor Dick Van Dyke, who handled production alongside his wife Arlene Silver. Its director's cut, led by Spike Jonze and Mary Wigmore, came out on 6 December. Coldplay published a shorter version (which credits Crisp as director) on 13 December, celebrating Van Dyke's 99th birthday. The alter ego also makes an appearance on the Pnau remix, which was directed by Candy and released on 27 December.

Critical reception

Emma Harrison from Clash described "All My Love" as a "beautiful piano-driven song that takes inspiration from the likes of Elton John and the Beatles". She also observed that the lyrics fall "slightly on the side of saccharine", but "it works". Paul Grein from Billboard ranked it among Van Dyke's Top 10 Music Moments on his 100th birthday.
