Perhaps she didn’t want to be filmedĪt this point, the film switched to Martin’s love life, or lack thereof. Not even their collaboration with Rihanna on “Princess of China” was highlighted. Although “Paradise” was a part of the tracklist, it wasn’t mentioned at all. With the cover art and everything, they were trying to obtain an edgier vibe that didn’t quite fit them.įrom there, the documentary sped up, almost completely glossing over their next album, “Mylo Xyloto”. The rest of the album was, in my opinion, pretty bad. Their big hit was, obviously, the song “Viva La Vida”. Martin commented that with their drummer back, everyone was excited and ready to record. I was pretty shocked when Martin explained how he wasn’t happy with the album, but that probably had to do more with the circumstances it was written in.Ĭhampion was invited back into the band just in time for their 4th LP: “Viva La Vida”. “X&Y” is my personal favorite album from the band, boasting “Fix You” among many other quality songs. He started out as a fill-in for Coldplay, not really qualified for his role, but he knew they needed a drummer. Their drummer, Will Champion, decided to leave the group after the other members became increasingly aware of his lack of skills. With “X&Y”, personal drama within the band started becoming more clear. A song that they should have gone over was “Clocks”, another one of their breakout tunes that didn’t get the recognition it deserved. Their song “The Scienti st” from that album is another one of their well-known hits. Next was “A Rush of Blood to the Head”, recorded in 2002. Their hit single from it was “Yellow”, one of their most popular songs to date. Although various EPs were released before their first album, their recorded journey started out with the 2000 album “Parachutes”. It’s not confirmed that the band isn’t making any more albums, but at the end of the show, Chris Martin said he’d be surprised if the group released anything else.Įach album’s process was gone over, how it was recorded, and the mindset of the band at the time. Old videos of the band from the late 90’s soon appeared, giving a bit of a contrast between the band’s humble beginnings and their explosion of an end. The documentary started out with clips from their A Head Full of Dreams tour, a record-breaking display of lights and colors. Releasing 7 albums and many hit singles over the course of 20 years, Coldplay’s talent and ability to connect with their audience has made them an iconic band.
