Very important for young aspiring singers to see this kind of raw performance. You have to learn to accept that you’re never gonna be perfect and whether or not your voice cracks a little bit, it can still be a badass performance like this one
@@sensitivity7207it was a fantastic performance but I’d bet my life on the fact that Chris Martin himself would say that no live performance is ever perfect. That’s the beauty of it. There’s beauty in imperfection. When you hear the record, you’re hearing the best possible version of that song that’s been mixed, mastered, and edited together. It’s so important for musicians to not base their skill level around a master track because when they play it live, it’ll never be perfect, and that’s okay.
@@jarmovanrooij3686 he was airy in one of the oh oh ohs and pitchy in others and other lines, it’s not subjective. Chris Martin is a great musician cuz he actually performs live and I like the human factor of error cuz it’s more real
That tuning is something else.His rhythm on the guitar is absolutely fantastic here.I was just listening to that beautiful guitar sound in the whole video.
Someone from The Voice would hit every note perfectly and not sound a fraction as good. This is the confidence that comes from writing your own song and literally singing it a thousand times in front of a live audience. CM knows what has to be spot on - the rhythm of the guitar and a few key singing notes - and the rest he can just wing it.
I love seeing the stars performing solo. He was clearly out of his comfort zone after a bit, but this displays Chris' raw talent and the musicality of the song.
Bradley Caayupan he said he’s a simple man? I’ve only heard him say the opposite. He’s insanely, deeply addicted to perfecting his music. He’s upbeat and positive but geez I’ve never thought he was simple....that’s not a compliment. Love ya! ❤️
@@amazingsupergirl7125 Bradley means that he's simple from a materialistic point of view as in he doesn't flaunt his wealth, not that his music is simple.
@@jixuscrixus1967 they sure are, but a suit and tie show elegance. Surely if you had to guess who's wealthier between a plain looking guy and a guy in a suit, you'd choose the guy in a suit.
a voice is vibration caused by air pushing out of your mouth, vibrating your vocal chords so technically, correct. (although i agree that chris is avery good singer)
I have just watch and download ur tutorial for this man! Im gonna watch it when i got my new acoustic guitar. You are brillant man! You expose the tuning of this version Godbless to you and your family.
Chris was wearing a suit because he had just come from the funeral of one of his neighbours and he was a bit out of breath because he had just arrived and almost hadn't been able to be there in time.
Here's the TUNING and CHORDS guys From what I can hear in the stray notes he plays accidentally and from the intro, the tuning is D# G# C# F G# D# First chord is a D power chord 10 12 12 muted Second is 0 12 12 x x x Third chord 9 12 11 x x x Fourth chord 9 9 7 x x x Chorus is x 5 7 7 0 0 0 7 7 8 0 0 5 7 7 7 0 0 2 4 4 3 0 0 I could be wrong about the tuning of the 3rd string though Figured this all out in my head as I don't have a guitar So I could be wrong. Check for it yourself.

Hi everyone! I see a lot of discussion in these comments about the tuning of Chris' guitar. The tuning (from low to high) is: Eb Ab Db F Ab Eb. I am 100% positive about this! Can send chord shapes as well if people need. Enjoy!

For those who are saying that he sings bad live, he does not focus on singing nicely, he focuses more on interacting with the crowd and performing the best.
Tolkirum stfu bitch just because he doesn’t act like he’s singing like every other singer doesn’t mean he is bad he is actually more talented than many other singers and by that I mean at least 75% other singles
@@tolkirum lol. 😂😂 it sounded great.... Even if it's musically imperfect. At the end of the day... music is any sound you like, not something that is like a subject... So I guess you can keep your money 😂😂
OMG, This was happened at my birthday and i didnt even know this that day, 12.12.12 it was a special day for my life and nowadays this song is my best ever song. So i found this awesome video and im almost crying. Love you and love this song so so much!
It's very rare to see him in a suit like this.
Verdade kk
Don Cresswell And I like it sooo much
Was about to say that lol, he looks handsome
and that makes him even sexier!!!!
^^ but he sure looks good :)
coldplay should release a greatest hits acoustic album
ibox55 gaming Yes!!! or just the greatest hits in a different other awesome intresting way. versions 2!
I LAUGHED SO HARD AT THIS
You heard hymn for d weekend acoustic by martin? awesome!!!
you realize they released an acoustics Ep
@@taxolson192 name of the ep ?
his rhythm guitar is amazing
Al Varo I know righht !
Exactly man
Taking out my acoustic guitar in 1, 2,3... and play it. Incredibly delicious this guitar.
That triple strum is under-rated. Not many guys can do it and it’s nearly impossible without a pick.
@@buddyrye9190 It's easy until fingers do that strumms.
Sounds good but...
Very important for young aspiring singers to see this kind of raw performance. You have to learn to accept that you’re never gonna be perfect and whether or not your voice cracks a little bit, it can still be a badass performance like this one
But his singing and guitar playing is perfect here so I am not sure if it’s good example of what you’re saying…

see them for the first time live this year, incredible, im going again next year
It is since 2011 😭💔
Done. Great show. Will go again.
this the first time i see chris wearing a suit he looks fine af
he is killing it right there! there a very few people on this planet who can perform like this.
Capagis he is good but there are literally millions who can perform the same song better
they are just not famous
I seriously doubt that millions could do better.
Do you know how many people there is in the world? milion is a safe bet
Ayush lollll
soo every one can sing, but can you're millions write a song like this?
If you like this, you’ll LOVE him on Howard Stern playing Viva La Vida on acoustic guitar,
You can thank me later
Yah i watched it already
Thank you!
Thanks ♥️
awesome video no doubt
I watched it already lol
That tuning is something else.His rhythm on the guitar is absolutely fantastic here.I was just listening to that beautiful guitar sound in the whole video.
This is actually Mark Zuckerberg playing a guitar produced by Chris Martin
Hahaha
it's a martin guitar
Yeah, he is like human version of Zuckerberg
Chris Zuckerberg
xD
He's not even singing , its like he is just speaking normally and it sounds so good , such talent!!

Chris Martin + Guitar + Suit = Perfection
This dude has been performing since the 90s, and now 2023 nothing can stop him!
Chris is a simple man so you rarely see him wearing this kind of suit

Fast Flash underrated comment
th-cam.com/video/N-XjJUzMzHU/w-d-xo.html
Goodness gracious, that is what you call a voice!!
Maybe he could take some coaching, because his live performances are really bad. Sad thing, since he has such a beautiful voice.
This live performance was really bad don’t know what you are on about. So many voice cracks
@@badgasaurus4211 Sounds like he has a cold.

Now that's what a genuine talented rockstar look's like.
I have a tutorial on this version. It's in an open tuning. Cheers
you are the best when it comes to tutorials, learned Sultans of swing thanks to you
Can u show me what chords he play? This sounds much better than the usual C,D,G,Em.
@@fatleopard888 he's using different tuning than standard tuning
I have just watch and download ur tutorial for this man!
Im gonna watch it when i got my new acoustic guitar. You are brillant man! You expose the tuning of this version Godbless to you and your family.
Epic Coment !!!
Chris Martin wearing a suit tho 😍😍😍
Kristen M opai nai
Yeah... Probably with DAKOTA JOHANSON 🤓
opai nai laa

Chris was wearing a suit because he had just come from the funeral of one of his neighbours and he was a bit out of breath because he had just arrived and almost hadn't been able to be there in time.
one guitar one singer : perfect show
Chris is really good with the guitar!!
i love this because it’s so genuine and his voice cracks, it sounds great
he can be this good with just his acoustic guitar, a true performer 🫡
okay but why am i seeing this just now? His suit, his hair..him...he looks so beautiful, i started crying..
Gotta love Chris. Such a humble guy with a unique and powerful voice!
Holy grail of song writing ....unique test out of simple chords :)
Sweet ass fuckin rhythm guitar playing and singing.....true artistry, unlike the VMA's nowadays.......
Here's the TUNING and CHORDS guys
From what I can hear in the stray notes he plays accidentally and from the intro, the tuning is
D# G# C# F G# D#
First chord is a D power chord
10 12 12 muted
Second is 0 12 12 x x x
Third chord 9 12 11 x x x
Fourth chord 9 9 7 x x x
Chorus is
x 5 7 7 0 0
0 7 7 8 0 0
5 7 7 7 0 0
2 4 4 3 0 0
I could be wrong about the tuning of the 3rd string though
Figured this all out in my head as I don't have a guitar
So I could be wrong. Check for it yourself.
who gives a shit if you dont have a guitar lol shut up
i think the tuning is standard he just puts a capo and plays bare chords
you make it look like you figured it out, but that comment has been going around for ages. plus there's a guitar in your picture
Rangarajan what do you mean has been going around for ages? And that picture has a bass guitar which belongs to a friend

1:43 My favorite part!
I like this version, it's so fast and cool at the same time.
Never have I ever clicked faster because Chris is in a suit! 😳
Awesome performance Chris.
The sound engineer had him sounding like gold!
I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning, I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing
Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!
One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
Once you go there was never, never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world
It was a wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People…
I’ve watched this too many times. He’s so great
Hi everyone! I see a lot of discussion in these comments about the tuning of Chris' guitar. The tuning (from low to high) is: Eb Ab Db F Ab Eb. I am 100% positive about this! Can send chord shapes as well if people need. Enjoy!
Can you please tell me the chords
When the acoustic version is as great as the non-acoustic, you know you’ve got a fabulous song and artist. Wish there was a full acoustic album!

A truly splendid version of the song...love this
the guitar sounds so wonderful, rare to hear the same sound quality at stage.
Amo tanto esta canción. En esta época tan extraña e inhóspita, festejar la Vida es tan bello. Viva la Vida. 🤍
Chris Martin - Best guitarist while singing, Ryan Tedder (onerepublic) - Best pianist while singing, absolutely beautiful.
Have you heard of someone named John Mayer?
TheHoseman123 Chris is better at playing the Piano simultaniously without a doubt...
TheHoseman123
I guess Both are worth listening
Corey Taylor, anyone?
I dont deny that Martin is talented but he honstely isnt known for his guitar playing ability
His natural voice is my favourite thing.. its different from the majority of the pop musicians around there.
Holy grail of song writing ....unique test out of simple chords :)
one guitar one singer : perfect show
his voice is soooo good. that even his voice crack is giving me literal chills
I just love how you can still hear this song everywhere as if it was still new today!
Perfect as always, Chris is so amazing
Sem palavras pra descrever essa voz...
Chris Martin is just the only pianist who knows how to play guitar.
seeing as there are like 7 billion people on this planet there are probably hundreds more pianists who also play a guitar
al pianists play guitar
I love his voice
great to see these performers, what a talented and gifted person.
I really love this version, REALLY!
he is very different in suit :) looking forward to seeing you in singapore

This deserves to get more viewers...What a nice performance Chris !!!
I used to think nasal voice sounds awful but Chris makes it sounds so great!
Pure genius and precision. Unique. Period.
For those who are saying that he sings bad live, he does not focus on singing nicely, he focuses more on interacting with the crowd and performing the best.
He still sings amazing live tho
I swear to God the band really needs to come in blazers. They'd be so sharp
Unique God given talent. Keep giving your gift to the world and awakening wonderful feelings in people.
Look at his guitar rhythm. That's amazing
Tuning: E A D G B e.
Capo: 1st fret,
Chords: C D G E
And That's basically it.
do you have any guitar tab?
I found it from a tab on Ultimate Guitar, so yea..
that's the 'easy' version .... he plays it differently in this version.
I agree that's the easiest version, but not what he's playing here. He's not using a capo.
I knew there was something strange about this video. Haha of course was Chris' suit, it looks impressive with him
There are no such words invented i can explain chris he is the king
Mamma mia quanto è figo !!!!! Che talento immenso !!! Bravissimo !
Holy shot. His voice is so underrated😍
Amazing human being to this wonderful world 🌎 ❤
