lol. "we did actually write this song even though i can't remember the words." haha

[MrsChrisM]

Hahaha btw, when they returned one year later, someone in the audience brought a big sign that said "REHEARSED AMSTERDAM THIS TIME?" And Chris just looked at the sign, shaked his head and said like "noooo". Hahaha.

But in the end of Strawberry Swing he actually changed a few sentences from that song, and sang some sentences from Amsterdam instead, so I guess he's forgiven.

One of their greatest songs. A pity they don't include it as parte of their set list. It would be easier to remember...

As far as genius musicians go, they don't come much more genuine and spontaneous than Chris Martin.

"You should always rehearse before giving a concert in Stockholm" - LOL! And the crowd feels his sincerity and genuinity and they love him even more, even though this would have been a terrible faux-pas with a lesser musician

[longtalker]

Haha the crowd knows the lyrics to his songs far better than he does, it seems the audience and Chris make a good team together here :) They always do!

funny!! artists often look at their lyrics before concerts to remember. If you follow coldplay you should see that Chris was learning the lyrics of "Christmas Lights" before the concert so maybe he forgot the lyrics or he just didn't look at "Amsterdam" lyrics before the concert!!!!
