I listened to this song while on the plane to Seattle. I remember it was night, everyone on the plane was asleep, and I was one of the few who stayed awake. While this song played, the view outside was the clearest of clear. The bottom was a vast stretch of the ocean, and the rest is just the moon and its beautiful twinkling stars. I remember thinking "am I really seeing heaven right now?". I mean, this song?? the serenity, the beauty, the everything. and the freaking view of the stars and the ocean? It's amazing man.

In my opinion, this is one of the most beautiful songs from Coldplay.The lyrics and the piano are really perfect.

This song is a big contributor to me getting clean/sober. I lost my pop pop and I was still using cocaine and drinking and my addiction was so bad I was suicidal. I was having a horrible time trying to sleep at 7am and I played this for hours.

I’m 1 year and 9 months clean now.
This is the first time I’ve listened to it since.
It brought up so much emotion I cried in a way I haven’t got to yet.
Thank you for this from the bottom of my heart 💝

My baby died at 20 weeks a year ago. This song is what got me through each day. Through the pain and sadness. His name was Fynn.

My beautiful daughter was brutally murdered January of 2018 outside of Orlando she was 29 years young. She is and always will be in our hearts and souls! I had never heard O"Fly On" before this devastating event but now find some peace in the lyrics and the message I take from the song. Rest in peace Marie we will sour together one day...

As someone relentlessly bullied in high school... Nothing has ever described my tear soaked pillow midnight feeling like this song. Had it not been for the support of my mom, I would have absolutely ended my life. I graduated in 2007 and still to this day, live with those scars... TALK to your child! Even if you think they're fine, you may be surprised.

A prayer to humanity
A hymn to beauty
A plea for grace
An ode to love.

This song was used for my cousins funeral, she just turned 30 years old and was having her first baby, the baby survived and she didn't. So many questions left unanswered. Her funeral was held 4 weeks ago, this song is helping us heal. We miss you N.

For me this song is about the people who come and go from your life, like a flock of birds eventually everyone will fly on be it for whatever reason. Maybe a friend or loved one who has passed away. Maybe a lover who needs to find who they are or just possess a fear of love or commitment. A lack of faith in you to not repeat all the wrong people have done or a lack of faith in themselves not to repeat all the wrong they have done to people. You try to reach them but before you can like smoke you dissipate into nothing. So you let them go and keep them in your prayers. The passion and desire in you is so strong that you believe and hope that they will find peace

The song that helped me grieve the sudden loss of my mother in law which devastated my family ...my wife and young children were in a really bad place .... I stood with my stiff upper lip helping them guiding them as best I could at the time. Then in my silent moments when they were all in bed I would put my headphones on and play this and Break my heart listening to it. Nearly 1 year on Rose and I still miss you and wish you were here with us all. A once complete family now feels broken love and miss you always. Take no one for granted as within the blink of an eye they could be gone...

I have never lost anyone in my life, until I lost my grandfather 3 years ago. He always gave me confidence, courage to be successful in this life, to reach my dreams. He always kept me saying "If God allows me, I will see you graduate from university too". I have graduated, he was the only person missing. Now, I have reached my dream, doing master's abroad. I hope you are proud of me grandfather. Until next time.

Still makes me cry. Chris's voice and the simplicity of the song is breathtaking. Conveys so much to anyone who needs it. The genius of Coldplay

Probably my favorite song from their album "ghost stories". Still remember listening to this while leaving my hometown by ship for the first time to study some place else, not knowing what to expect. I got really sad and homesick, waving my friends and my dad goodbye, so I took out my phone and played my playlist, then this song came on. Then at that moment while I was looking out on the vast ocean, leaning on the ship's handrail, I saw a bird fly through the sunset sky without a flock. This is how I envisioned myself. After I'm done with my studies, after I'm done with it all, I'll come back to where I was, my hometown. My flock. But for now, just fly on.

Coldplay were my favorite band, and they are now and they will always be forever ♥ THIS IS THE GOOD MUSIC!

✨One of the most underrated songs from Coldplay...for sure...✨

[tylerdurden]

This song takes part of me in some kind of sense. I spent an entire year living alone and the first thing I did while I prepared my daily coffee before going to work was playing this song. Every single morning, this helped me to feel accompanied.

So many emotions as I listen to this song! I used to listen to it after I woke up from my chemo fog while being treated for breast cancer. I would sit in my apartment window and watch the seagulls and how they were so content and hung out with each other. The birds and the song gave me peace, and helped me get through the treatment and everything else going on around me in my life. I lost my boyfriend during it all, but it is all ok. I am cancer free now, and independent and happy to be alive. Thank you Coldplay so much! your songs always get me through the journeys and adventures of life<3

My mother passed away three years ago and after she died I was so lost, I couldn't feel anything. I didn't "know" where she was, I couldn't feel her watching over me. She had a terrible disease and everyone would say that she was at peace and I knew that in my brain, but I didn't feel at peace. A few months later, this song helped me have my first breakthrough and it was as if she was sending me a message through it. That she was in that flock of birds and I could watch her fly and be beautiful again and one day I could, maybe, fly with her again. The entire album, Ghost Stories, is beautiful, haunting and yet has helped me in my darkest days. Fly on, Mom.

My mother passed from cancer in 2014, she was 42. I never got to say goodbye the way I wanted to. One day we'll fly together

This song clearly brought the memories to my Dad that passed from cancer this last march, when i hear this song, i close my eyes, i can see his face, love, my childhood, all the memories.. it feels so real.
Finally i found peace in sadness .
