Coldplay improvises funny birthdaysong for Jon (and screws up)

Since it's leadguitarist Jon Buckland's birthday (9-11-77), frontman Chris decides to come up with an original birthdaysong in the midst of their Viva la Vida show in Nijmegen, Holland.

Well, videoquality turned out to be a bit dissapointing, but hey, you can still enjoy a great song!

Grote podium was ziek ver weg, maar toen kwamen ze plots helemaal in het midden van het publiek staan, echt vijf meter van ons af. :D

Oh god Jonny...what are you doing with that tambourine xD

[giselejames]

@brosive42 Lol, makes sense. Brilliant observation, man! :D

[delfiusgarland]

@Musicman1913 Of course, Coldplay are best known for their hit "Yellow". No small coincidence. ;)

[brosive42]

the reason that jonny is off is because it's off of the sound coming through the speakers. the vocals and guitar are coming through the sound system which is farther away and jonny's tambourine is much closer, so it sounds like jonny doesn't have any rhythm. haha it's kind of funny to watch

[Musicman1913]

Isn't it a coincidence that the top comments are both beginning with Yellow (yollowjaguar and yellowsevenxD)?

[cocacolacriminal]

What the fuck is Johnny doing with that tambourine?
