Hypnotised (Coldplay song)

"Hypnotised" is a song by British rock band Coldplay from their EP Kaleidoscope (2017). It was released by Parlophone on 2 March 2017 as an excerpt from the EP instead of a single.[3][4][5] The track was written by all four members of the band, while production was handled by Rik Simpson and Bill Rahko.[6][7][8] A lyric video directed by Mary Wigmore came out in the same day.[9] In June 2017, Brian Eno created an app available on iOS and Android devices to be played alongside the song to enhance it.[10] The song was then followed by the release of "All I Can Think About Is You" and "Aliens", with the latter being a charity single.
