I love it, there's a lot to unpack looking at the credits
The writers make it seem like it was a song that was panned for multiple artists and ended up with Coldplay
Andrés Torres and Mauricio Rengifo have collaborated a lot with TINI on her latest album, either way, TINI didn't have a verse, that's weird
Shawn Carter is Jay Z? Is it a sample?
Michael Ilbert usually does the engineering, seeing him as a producer it's interesting
Davide Rossi usually does the strings arrangement, seeing him as a writer as well it's interesting too

Mm, not really feeling it at first listen.

Glad to see Elyanna at the credtis: her heritage is linked to Chile as her grandmother is Chilean.

Max is trying to carry a band that is on the brink of collapse, probably he's one big reason they managed to keep it together, and the music shows.
Besides music, I find some things interesting in the credits that may set precedents. JUPiTER has additional production and instrumentation by Stargate, which would be the first time ever they collaborated with Max, which I know they acknowledged a lot of things starting in the Cheiron era from the LAAMP interviews. Probably something that should have happened sooner?
GOOD FEELiNGS is the first time Max collaborated with The Chainsmokers. They have been spotted together in some ceremonies before.

Where did you see the interviews? Are these available in full somewhere?

No, they're paywalled, I've only saw fragments of them in Sabine's instagram page.
