I was there!!! I LOVED when he had us all turn into a choir- it was so great sounding- and no doubt right after was freaking awesome! It was funny when he reached down to tie his shoe too xD

Every time I think Chris cannot get any better - he does. His piano playing in this is incredible.

[mosamo28]

what was other songs did chris sing?? ur so lucky

he's amazing live!!!

[salemr86]

it was so amazing. he started off with clocks, then sang yellow, then screwed around on the piano for a little bit, then played viva la vida, and then finished off with earth angel (cover, from back to the future). Only a 45 minute set per artist, but every minute was amazing.

I wish I could tell you but maybe someone else on here knows :)

[technodude9]

What's the name of the song in the beginning he played? D:

[froggyhop]

That would be Scott Joplin's "Maple Leaf Rag".

[mkinla917]

He played "I'm so lonesome I could cry" and then turned into "Clocks." :)

Fantastic ! Chris and Davide Rossi so rock together!

[schlegelsteph]

I have to agree. I looked up the violinists name and he is Davide Rossi, you can find him on myspace or twitter.

happy to share :)

[nowiamthere]

@schlegelsteph He's on facebook too.

Davide also works with Goldfrapp, The Verve and The Black Ships.

He's incredibly talented:)
