I mean... Chris Martin is such an U2 fanboy... before Viva la Vida they were turning basically in a cover band of the slower side of U2. This was probably his teenage dream coming true.
He was divorcing his wife, so the vocals were painful for him to sing. Bono wrote this because even at 21 when he married, he had at one stage to choose between his wife Ali and the band.
Two of my favorite bands meshed together, though I am pissed I was working a couple of blocks from where this was taking place and I walked right past it ughhhh
every time I hear Chris Martin it makes me happy cry he's the reason why my parents got married when I was a baby and made my life a dream come true a rockstar dad who works with Chris Martin @ Chris Martin thank you for giving me the gift of my life
@blueboy189Yellow is pretty much an easy song to sing, I think it would be more challenging for Bono to sing Chris' low notes, like in the song Moving to Mars for example.
@blueboy189I just looked up that version, I definitely wouldn't say Bono did any better than Chris did here. Which honestly is not surprising, I mean everyone is unique and no one can have someone else's voice. The best we're going to get is a great version but in someone else's style.
Well, I know Chris was a big U2 fan... so I guess this was a dream come true!!🙂 He did really well...of course he couldn't sing it like Bono but nobody would expect him to anyway! I was a big fan of U2 in the late 90s (but then from a certain moment and on I just couldn't stand Bono's personality 🙄) I also loved Coldplay's music in the 2000s ❤ I think their music had strong influences from U2 and Radiohead at the beginning. To be honest, in a couple Coldplay songs when I first heard them on radio I thought it was Bono singing ...funny. But I think later Coldplay evolved and gained an own identity. And Chris is such a sweet person!! Anyway, I love the music of both bands ❤❤

Oh Chris... There is only one Bono. But If I have to choose another singer to sing this song as well as he always did, it would definitely be YOU.
Holywood bono
I could fine another best answer than this...
Oh tav..you have alot to learn my friend, I saw U2 in the Sphere In Vegas this year and Coldplay in Dublin..
I feel like if you love U2, you also love Coldplay. There’s so many similarities in their music styles.

I agree
coldplay is big u2 fan
Ugm NO U2 legendary rock group, Coldplay, wannabe version, there is only ONE Bono and this guy is a cheap, karaoke version!!!
Coldplay, for those who find U2 too edgy 😅
Chris looks nervous at the beginning...love the wink from Larry. My 2 favorite things coming together.
I dont blame him having to sing one of the most songs know in the world😂 great job though.
If only coldplay and U2 would have a song together...
PLEASEEEE YESSS
he sang it damn well. love chris
He was divorcing his wife, so the vocals were painful for him to sing.
Bono wrote this because even at 21 when he married, he had at one stage to choose between his wife Ali and the band.
nope, his voice is nothing like Bono's - deep, low voice.
@@anonanon7235what are u on about bruv
@@pauljordan4452That’s hard timing for Chris here. Sheesh.
The Edge, such a great and underrated guitar hero ... What a sound he gives each time to this song.
He isn't underrated people say he is an amazing guitar player all the time
He is the best Ringtone riff player of all time
U2 and Coldplay the best for me.. ❤️❤️❤️😊
And Keane Definitely 😊
Two of my favorite bands meshed together, though I am pissed I was working a couple of blocks from where this was taking place and I walked right past it ughhhh
Guys for a cover he sang it well . Remember he did not write or sing this ..so it's definitely going to be different than original .
Chris, your version is stirring and appreciated by many through this RUclips video even years later.
Chris!! You did it so well in your own style. I love it. Chris + U2 = ❤
Big compliment for U2 that Chris Martin have them I'm a big fan of U2 thanks Chris
Simply marvellous!!!!!!! Great Chris ❤
fuck yeah. this is like a super expensive karaoke
I always love Chris💞
The Edge is really awesome as well! Love them all.
He is a grandpa now.

Chris Martin in sesi büyülü ve dinlemeye doyulmaz.❤❤❤
Que lindo ver Coldplay cantando a música de U2❤❤❤❤❤
Sounds just like Bono except when it doesn't.

When I was a teenager my favourite band was U2 then when I was in my 30’s my favourite band became Coldplay🩵
Makes you appreciate how much soul Bono has.
Hermosa versión y voz de Chris Martin 💗

Nobody can sing it like Bono....But then again can Bono sing your songs? Swings and roundabouts brother. All sweet.

I once have played on a silver - black Stratocaster... Great version with Chris.
Un gran buenaso de esta canción desde hace mucho tiempo
You nailed it.... you nailed the song that made the world stop for while.
Honestly, I can’t understand why so many people criticize Chris when they’re not better...
Amazing..!! Just Amazing..!!!!
Apresentação incrível do Chris Martin!!! 🥰❤
U2& Coldplay =♥️
Perfec!
Maravilhosos, esplêndidos.
Respect to these old rock legends
Que homem apaixonante
Why is not Bono here? Is he sick?
My English teacher thinks Coldplay and U2 are the same band, it is killing me, send help
He got hurt during this time. He fell off a bike
Amo os dois cada um na sua praia. São maravilhosos. E nessa Chris se saiu muito bem. Bono é maravilhoso nessa.
Hell of a step you've got there, russell.
Grandiosoooo!!!!🎉🎉🎉
O Cris sobressaiu muito bem na Banda U2, brilhante a voz dele ❤❤❤❤❤
Well done Chris. Hood man !
Pride❤
Saudades de um amor ❤️ que se foi😢😢
Danke Chris...👍

3:50 He really does the scratch and sniff in front of thousands of people
That was hilarious!
Chris Martin could make U2 relevant again
Amazing ❤😊
It's better with you 😍
Magique
Maravilhosos!!!! ❤❤❤❤
Awesome!
MARAVILHOSO ❤
Gente, esse público não mexe? Não dança? Ah se fosse no Brasil...rs
I love the Irish Musician
@@Kellie_stars U2, Westlife, ABBA, The Corrs, Boyzone, etc.
@@hermultv936ABBA are not Irish.... they are from Sweden
Edge backing vocals...👍👍👍
For Tommy my husband After only 12 years now j sing Whith u 2 and Colfplay
Is Bonos Song!!!
No sé si sea la costumbre pero con Bono suena mucho mejor este tema ... Saludos
OK! Acabo de morir y volvi a nacer con esta version. Mi cancion favorita
❤
What happened though? Where was Bono?
cara sem palavras 🎉🎉
Hard song to sing. Flat in a few spots but overall pretty good. Where is Bono?
so underwhelming tbh
Didn't you know he was then badly injured falling off his bicycle?
Here's a question for certain people: Is this band that we see here U2? Think about it.
If only he makes another album going in this direction. I'm fed up with his newer Pop songs.
Except for Coloratura, that is good tho.
This is just like when George Michael sang Somebody to love...the nearest vocalist to honor this song...
#...❤
👏👍❤️
Backing track?
I wish he would have been a little more warmed up from the beginning. Towards the end Chris really hit his stride.
u2
Oh this song is for only BONO..
Achtung baby 💕 stay
He looks do nervous. And he got tge wink from adam clayton made him feel better
Why is not Bono here? Is he sick?
Ed Rodriguez he got hit on his bike before this performance
With or without 🚂
Vallefiorita Calabria Italia🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹
Are there really some people screaming "booooooh" at the end? WHY?!
Where's the bass?
Where is Bono???
Bono injured himself at the time. He had a bike accident
Why wasn’t Bono here .. Springsteen sang a song too didn’t he
If you didn't see it keep it that way, he totally ruined it, it was a train wreck.
No one will ever see this, but just in case: anyone have the context? Where was Bono?
he was sick
He had a bad fall from a bicycle in Central Park.
My favourite band without bono
Even better than the real song!
Even better than the real thing! Song from Achtung Baby of course.
He has Bono voice only at 3:50
St Bono.
When the Voice of Chris is not big anough to get in these Footsteps
Tune
Chris is decent, but it really does go to show just how good Bono is.
