Max Martin, new to the band's records, produced it with Oscar Holter and Bill Rahko, and Serban Ghenea mixed.
Eight names share the writing: Chris Martin, Jonny Buckland, Guy Berryman and Will Champion, plus Holter, Jon Hopkins, Daniel Green and Federico Vindver. Chris Martin sings and plays guitar and keyboards, Buckland adds guitar, Berryman bass, and Champion drums, percussion and backing vocals, while a choir of Denise Carite, Neka Hamilton, Dorian Holley and Stevie Mackey stands behind them. A live version was later put out as a promotional single.
