Oh I've been waiting for this. I have two, by the same band The Chainsmokers. "Don't let me down" and "Something just like this". Two song I absolutely despise, because I utterly love the first verses of both, and after these two moments of incredible music the song just turns to something that doesn't connect with me at all. All of the energy that's build up is released with this dance-poppy beat that just.. doesn't... work.... at all. And I utterly hate them because of this. There is so much potential there and yet it's all wasted. It's gotten to the point that I've been thinking about trying to remix the songs to fix this, but don't think I have enough musical skill.
Nothing is more despicable than wasted potential, and these songs are dripping with it.
I dont know about the first one but "Something just like this" is hard carried by Chris Martin as is usual. Another example of this is "Homecoming". So basically what you said is you want to listen to coldplay. But i get what you said about chainsmokers, their drops are ugly, lazy and out of place. It just doesnt work.
