I never knew Coldplay did a version of this song. I was pleasantly surprised. I didn't find his voice sad like some people say. To me it is soothing and he sounds so sincere as though he wants us all to have Merry Little Christmases. :)
Judy Garland's original in "Meet me in Saint Louis" was truer to the essential sadness of this song. Instead of "hang a shining star on the highest bough" we have "until then we have to muddle through somehow". This song is special precisely because it is one of the few that resonates with those who are lonely at Christmas. In WW2 the troops used to cry whilst listening to it. Coldplay... please do a revised version, restoring the original lyrics!
sat as a newly qualified Radiographer from the UK moved to Hong Kong, If there was any excuse to pour myself another beer on a worknight in my first week, it is this song. Cheers! All! Merry Xmas PS, Anyone kind samaritan out there listening in Hong Kong that will have me for dinner on Xmas day please get in touch. :(
Listening this on Christmas day itself, feeling completely lonely and quite in sync with this song. My beloved dad just passed away days before. The sinking feeling n the void is tough. Normally, I can be alone but rarely felt lonely, but this time its not the same.
+Seramics - I am sorry for your loss my Friend... There will be better times, i promise in the Name of the Lord... I am lonely celebrating Christmas 2015 too (well...With my Dog) - But i know how you feel... But "You cannot fall deeper than in Gods Hands" - You will be never really lonely - I will pray for you Seramics - Keep your Head up and be sure, that you are NOT really lonely... - Chris
Chris Hoene Thank you my friend in Christ, you must be an angel sent from Heaven to give me this little consolation. I appreciate it no matter how small. I like dogs too. They are man's best friend. I wish you a wonderful Merry Christmas. Thank you for praying for me. I will keep my head held high, if only just because God say so.
Not only the LORD says@wishes this for you my Friend... ME TOO !!! Sometimes - Happenings like exactly THIS here - are meant to Show the Lords LOVE by another ONE like me, just because the time is right for it... - Chris
i love this song, (the first time i heard it i knew it was Chris) happy tears of christmas , because of this song... best wishes for all even thow they are late
Having a Christmas alone is difficult but is a experience to treasure and then you more aware to share it with others and also you value more the compagnion of your love ones!
I can't believe that for 2 years my comment still one of the top likes.. anyway thats not important to me whats important is that I would like to greet all of you AGAIN.. MERRY CHRISTMAS and a PROSPEROUS 2012
Trying to find some videos with close ups on Chris' hands while he's playing so I can better see his style. I play by ear so I have a pretty good idea of what notes he's hitting, but visual aids help a lot. Anyone got leads?
Hers my thing about Coldplay. I love the singer's voice, and their all very good musicians, but I just don't like the majority of their music. So I enjoy them preforming songs I like :)
Have yourself a merry little Christmas, Let your heart be light From now on, our troubles will be out of sight Have yourself a merry little Christmas, Make the Yule-tide gay, From now on, our troubles will be far* away. Here we are as in olden days, Happy golden days of yore. Faithful friends who are dear to us Gather near to us once more. Through the years We all will be together, If the Fates allow Hang a shining star upon the highest bough. And have yourself A merry little Christmas now.

Nice to see a modern band not messing with the classics, nice and simple. Well done Coldplay.

I love the soft 🎹 and thankful for musicians like CM who have such beautiful voices. Wishing all artists a Happy Holiday!

Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Let your heart be light
From now on,
our troubles will be out of sight
Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Make the Yule-tide gay,
From now on,
our troubles will be far* away.
Here we are as in olden days,
Happy golden days of yore.
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more.
Through the years
We all will be together,
If the Fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough.
And have yourself A merry little Christmas now.
Why couldn't i have found this a week ago?
