Search artists and open any artist for their full profile: formed year, country, genre, style and mood, biography, record label, website and social links, and high-resolution images (thumb, logo, banner and fan art). Pull an artist's albums and their music videos, open an album for its description and details and list its tracks, and see what is trending now. Live data straight from TheAudioDB community database. Distinct from streaming and metadata APIs: this is the fan-facing music encyclopedia — biographies, artwork and music videos — ideal for music apps, artist pages, media galleries and Discord bots. 7 data endpoints. Authenticated with an x-oanor-key; fair-use rate limits per

The song was initially made available as a free download on the band's website and was downloaded more than two million times.\n\nColdplay vocalist Chris Martin revealed that the song had been in development, though, the band had not completed the song, as the first line and first little melody had been written. \"Violet Hill\" is the first anti-war protest song from the group. The single was received with positive reviews.

It was written and produced by band members Guy Berryman, Jonny Buckland, Will Champion, Chris Martin, with production assistance from Paul Epworth, Daniel Green, and Rik Simpson. The song was released as the lead single from Ghost Stories on 3 March 2014, by Parlophone. A beat consisting of a \"muffled snare\" and \"dusty bass riff\" is repeated throughout most of the song. As the song progresses, an organ is later added to the instrumentation which is eventually swapped out for a stomp-clap beat and again for a synth beat. Following the song's second chorus, these beats are gradually combined together while Martin sings in falsetto. The song's \"anticlimactic\" portion then decreases intensity until it has eventually resumed to simply a snare and bass riff.\nThe song was recorded by the band during sessions for their sixth studio album in 2013, at their purpose-built studios The Bakery and The Beehive in North London, England, both originally constructed for work on their two previous studio albums, 2008's Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends and 2011's Mylo Xyloto respectively. The song's bass riff, the first part of the song, was originally conceived by Guy Berryman during the band's recording sessions in February 2013. The song was then covered by singer/songwriter Lauren Aquilina for her BBC Radio 1 Maida Vale session.","music_video":"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qtb11P1FWnc"},{"thumb":"https://r2.theaudiodb.com/images/media/track/thumb/ssvqrs1359321220.jpg","track":"Charlie Brown","track_id":"32724194","description":"\"Charlie Brown\" is a song by British alternative rock band Coldplay.

It was released as the 5th single from their eighth studio album Everyday Life (2019) on March 12, 2020. The accompanying music video was released the same day.\n\n\"Aoife Mcardle channels George Orwell's Animal Farm in her outstanding satire of our post-truth world, for Coldplay's Trouble In Town.  In this fast-moving story an ensemble of anthropomorphic characters' lead interwoven lives on the mean streets of an anonymous American city. Tackling issues such as homelessness, racial and social inequality and police brutality, we follow members of the underclass as they try to survive in a spectacularly messed-up system. The use of animals such as foxes for these characters is an inspired choice, given their urban habitat and often desperate living situation, which is in total contrast to the wealthy politicians, represented (as in the Orwell classic) by pigs. As the normal residents risk their lives day-to-day to just exist, we see the pigs on screen arguing and coming to blows with each other. This disrespect trickles down to the police and other positions of power, in a distressing setup that echoes real-life shootings of those such as Alton Sterling and other black men who were murdered by the police.\nWith Kiev standing in for this threatening urban landscape, DoP Mauro Chiarello utilises the neon glare of the city as a main lighting source, building upon the gritty urban aesthetic with a splash of garish colour. UK-based SFX company Millenium FX created each of the prosthetic masks on display in the video, a true testament to the creative team's talent and the incredible potential that exists in international collaboration. But above all this is a triumphant return to music videos by McArdle in making a blockbuster-style entertainment without compromising her satirical targets.\nProceeds from the song and video will be split between two charities: The Innocence Project, which helps to overturn wrongful convictions in the US; and ACFS, which is a charity for vulnerable children in South Africa.\" (Rob Ulitski, Promonews)","music_video":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aKlwJROuo-Q"},{"track":"Up&Up","track_id":"34793136","description":"\"Up&Up\" is a song by British rock band Coldplay from their seventh studio album, A Head Full of Dreams (2015).

The music video was garnered as a tribute to the 7 July 2005 London bombings.\nThe guitar solo of \"Fix You\" is currently used as the player introduction at all of the National Hockey League's Montreal Canadiens' home games.\nThe song was played live to a motionless crowd at the Steve Jobs memorial/celebration-of-life event at Apple headquarters on 19 October 2011 in Cupertino, CA.\n\"Fix You\" covered by Boyce Avenue was used in the video \"Internet Love Story: CTFxC Wedding (Charles & Alli)\" uploaded by user charlestrippy on 22 November 2011. As of 27 April 2012 it currently has 2,330,161 views.\n\nThe music video for \"Fix You\" was directed by Sophie Muller, who had previously worked with the band for their 2002 video \"In My Place\". The video was filmed at the end of two concerts on 4 and 5 July 2005 at the Reebok Stadium in Bolton, England, which were the band's first ever stadium performances. The concert goers doubled as extras for the video shoot, which required two takes on each day to complete. In the first half of the video, Martin, wanders the streets of London starting at Tooley Street under London Bridge station, while the slogan \"Make Trade Fair\" is projected onto the Royal National Theatre, using the same Baudot code colour scheme on the cover of X&Y. The tunnels that Martin is seen wandering within are located both in and around King's Cross and St Pancras railway stations, with the filming for the video taking place during the time of the redevelopment and expansion of the latter. Martin is then seen walking across Waterloo Bridge, which crosses the River Thames, connecting the South Bank with The Strand. As soon as the electric guitar kicks in, Martin's walk turns into a run as he darts through streets of London, until very quickly reaching the side of the stage at the Reebok Stadium in Bolton, where he joins the rest of the band for the song's finale. The audience sings along with the song's final refrain, and at the end of the video Martin thanks them for their support and wishes them goodnight.\n\nThe video debuted on 1 August 2005. It was nominated at the 15th annual Music Video Production Association Awards in the category of Adult Contemporary. After its release, the music video was repurposed as a tribute to the victims of the 7 July 2005 London bombings, although it was filmed before they occurred.","music_video":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4V3Mo61fJM"},{"track":"Fix You","track_id":"33138742","music_video":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4V3Mo61fJM"},{"track":"Fix You","track_id":"33138764","music_video":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4V3Mo61fJM"},{"track":"Fix You","track_id":"33138782","music_video":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4V3Mo61fJM"},{"track":"Fix You","track_id":"34329073","music_video":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4V3Mo61fJM"},{"track":"Fix You","track_id":"34679247","music_video":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4V3Mo61fJM"},{"track":"Fix You (edit)","track_id":"35165817","description":"","music_video":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4V3Mo61fJM"},{"thumb":"https://r2.theaudiodb.com/images/media/track/thumb/xqwrqt1340354430.jpg","track":"Trouble","track_id":"32724185","description":"\"Trouble\" is a song recorded by British alternative rock band Coldplay for their debut album, Parachutes.

This was followed with releases in the US and Canada on the 14th of July 2003. The song was later released on the 21st of July 2003 in Australia and Taiwan.  \n   \nWhen the song was released, it featured the B-side \"Murder\". The single cover features bassist Guy Berryman, art-directed by Sølve Sundsbø.  Regional singles were released for Canada, Europe, Australia, and an enhanced version for Taiwan. Promotional singles were released in the UK and US. Since only promo copies were released, the single reached only number 100 in the UK Singles Chart.\n\nGeneral Info:\n\n\"God Put a Smile upon Your Face\" was written by all members of the band for their second studio album, A Rush of Blood to the Head (2002). The song is built around prominent acoustic and electric guitar riffs with accompanying up-tempo drumming. The song was released on 14 July 2003 as the fourth and final single from the album.\n\nRegional singles were released for Canada, Europe, Australia, and an enhanced version for Taiwan. Promo singles were released for the United Kingdom and United States. Since only promo copies were released, the single reached only number 100 in the UK Singles Chart.\n\nBackground:\n\nColdplay vocalist Chris Martin said, about the writing of the song, \"That came out of playing live and wanting to have something with a bit more bounce. We were really getting into things like PJ Harvey and Muse – things with a bit more energy.\"\n\nWhen asked about the development of the song, during a track-by-track reveal, bassist Guy Berryman said:\n\nWhen we came to record it in the studio we struggled because there was something just not quite right about it and I wasn't happy about where we'd left it and where we were happy to leave it and we couldn't put our finger on what it was and so it was a really nice day one day, me and Chris were just trying, I was actually just trying to record bass at the time and me and Chris were just sitting down trying to brainstorm it and work out what was wrong and so I started trying to just do a few different bass lines and stuff. Between the two of us we came up with just this kind of groove, which stays on the same note as opposed to change, it's quite technical but it kind of added a bit of bounce to the song and it made it roll along in a much more fluid way. It was a bit mechanical before and it's just interesting how something small like that can really change the whole vibe of a song. It was just nice because from there on it was one of our favorite tracks and it almost didn't get on the record but it's now one of our favorite tracks.\n\nComposition:\n\nThe song features an acoustic and electric guitar sound. The song starts with a hushed acoustic ballad before building into a roar of an electric guitar and soaring with vocals. The song also includes an uptempo metronomic drumming rhythm.\n\nThe first line of the third verse allude to a definitive moment with the cryptic reference to God: \"Now when you work it out, I'm worse than you/Yeah, when you work it out I wanted to/Now, when you work out where to draw the line/Your guess is as good as mine.\" Greg Kot of the Chicago Tribune commented that the lyric \"God gave you style and gave you grace,\" Martin sings as if \"cataloging the attributes he only wishes he had\". When the song is performed live, guitarist Jonny Buckland begins a long ripping off guitar riff while Chris Martin plays an acoustic guitar.\n\nReception:\n\nCritics were positive towards the song. In the Rolling Stone review of the album, critic Rob Sheffield wrote: \"'God Put a Smile Upon Your Face' is the slinkiest and best thing Coldplay have ever done.\" Adrien Begrand of PopMatters wrote: \"Buckland's lead fills highlight the wondrous 'God Put a Smile on Your Face', as the song's chorus reaches heights that rival those of their fellow countrymen Doves.\" Ted Kessler of NME wrote: \"Over a pounding garage tattoo Martin poses a deep, mortality-based teaser ('where do we go from here?'), asserts some self-belief ('God gave me style, God gave me grace') and then hits upon the bottom line as the song's mood suddenly improves with another fat and glorious chorus: 'Yeah, when you work it out I'm the same as you....your guess is as good as mine.'\"\n\n\"God Put a Smile upon Your Face\" was featured in the band's live album, Live 2003. The song is available on Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock video game as a downloadable song. The game also includes other Coldplay songs such as \"Yellow\" and \"Violet Hill\". Plan B sampled the track on his 2007 mixtape Paint it Blacker. The song was also covered by Mark Ronson on his album Version, which he performed live with Adele at the 2008 Brit Awards.\n\nThe song was also covered by Matt Jorgensen +451 on their album Hope release on Origin Records.\n\nMusic video:\n\nThe music video, released in October 2003, is shot in black-and-white and has a narrative theme. The video is directed by Jamie Thraves, who had previously directed the band's third video for \"The Scientist\".\n\nThe video inter-cuts footage of the band performing the song with the story of a businessman, who is humiliated and horrified to find that he is gradually disappearing, after bumping into a mysterious stranger with no shoes. The businessman is played by actor Paddy Considine.","music_video":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhIVgSoJVRc"},{"thumb":"https://r2.theaudiodb.com/images/media/track/thumb/wtqwvv1553142216.jpg","track":"God Put a Smile Upon Your Face","track_id":"35163699","description":"","music_video":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhIVgSoJVRc"},{"track":"Everything's Not Lost","track_id":"32724189","description":"","music_video":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qN8WQOHsNx4"},{"thumb":"https://r2.theaudiodb.com/images/media/track/thumb/utxyrx1495702750.jpg","track":"Adventure of a Lifetime","track_id":"34793130","description":"\"Adventure of a Lifetime\" is a song by British rock band Coldplay.

It also reached the top 20 in a number of countries, including Australia, Austria, Canada, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, New Zealand, and Switzerland.\n\nThe official music video was directed by the band's long-time collaborator, Mat Whitecross. It was released on 27 November 2015. The concept for the video was hatched after Coldplay frontman Chris Martin and British motion capture expert/actor Andy Serkis met on a plane and discussed ideas. It took about six months in the making of the music video.\n\nAccording to The Guardian, the video was shot at The Imaginarium Studios, where the reboot series of Planet of the Apes and parts of Avengers: Age of Ultron and Star Wars: The Force Awakens were filmed.\n\nHannah Clark, the producer of the video commented, \"As creatures go, chimps are one of the more difficult to animate. Not only are they quite human in their movement, but they are covered in hair. Add to this that we had no backgrounds shot, and we were asking an awful lot of any post-collaborator.\" The band's faces were covered in a special, reflective and light-catching make-up that allowed the computers to appropriately interpret the video feed and create renders of the chimpanzees' characters. The band members weren't playing real instruments, but similarly-shaped objects that enabled creation of realistic body positions.\n\nThe animation, visual effects and motion design of the video was carried out by Mathematic – a Paris-based production company. Mat Whitecross filmed the band using a special camera. Each of band members also wore a head-mounted camera system that was configured into a three camera solution. The camera systems provided multiple video streams from which the production team was able to recreate 3D points.\n\nThe CGI animated video features a group of music-loving chimpanzees that come across a Beats Pill speaker under a pile of leaves. The primates then discover the power of music and form a band that resembles the band members.\n\nThe video begins with a similar layout with Coldplay's 2011 music video, \"Paradise\". As it opens, four chimpanzees (played by the band members) are sitting in a forest. The opening verses begin after a chimpanzee (played by Jonny Buckland) find a portable speaker under a pile of leaves while it's playing the song. Another chimpanzee (played by Chris Martin) listens to the music and calls the rest of the group (played by Guy Berryman and Will Champion) to gather. It then slaps its chest and jumps to a path inside the forest alone.\n\nThe character sings the song and swings on the willow tree vines. Then, the four chimpanzees dance together during the chorus. After the chorus, they find an electric guitar, a bass and a drum set. The chimpanzees bang on the instruments before they realize their proper use. The characters play the instruments and form an \"ape band\". A hat is added on Buckland's character and an earring is added on Berryman's character after they have formed a band.\n\nDuring the bridge of the song, the band is surrounded by other chimpanzees (also played by themselves). The rest of the video features the dance movements of the other chimpanzees and the performance of the ape band. At the end of the video, Martin's character climbs up to a tree and overlooks the view of the forest which also features some Indian temples, a reference to the Indian inspiration of the associated album, A Head Full of Dreams.","music_video":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QtXby3twMmI"},{"track":"Biutyful","track_id":"35776297","music_video":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=raHLFg6bkNI"},{"thumb":"https://r2.theaudiodb.com/images/media/track/thumb/xuxwwp1340355023.jpg","track":"The Scientist","track_id":"32724172","description":"\"The Scientist\" is the second single from British alternative rock band Coldplay's second album, A Rush of Blood to the Head.

The band co-wrote and co-produced the song with Swedish DJ Avicii, with production assistance from Paul Epworth, Daniel Green, and Rik Simpson. It was recorded at The Bakery and The Beehive in North London, England.\n\nUpon its release, \"A Sky Full of Stars\" garnered mostly positive reviews from music critics and have charted inside the top 10 in over 16 countries such as Australia, Canada, Europe, Japan, Mexico, the United Kingdom and United States. A music video for the song was directed by Mat Whitecross and was released on 19 June 2014. The song is used as the theme song for Godzilla.\n\"A Sky Full of Stars\" marks the band's first dance track, being outlined as an EDM track with house influences. A piano-centric song which is written in the key of E♭ minor, the track opens as a piano ballad, with progressive house-influenced electronic music that plays out in between verses. According to the sheet music published at Musicnotes.com, the song follows a chord progression of E♭m7–C♭maj9–G♭–B♭m(♭6) with a tempo of 125 beats per minute, and the vocals span from A♭4 to G♭6. The track has been described as \" in line with the synth-heavy soundscapes of 'Midnight', but with more danceable flavor\".\n\"A Sky Full of Stars\" was recorded during the sessions for the band's sixth studio album, at their purpose-built studios The Bakery and The Beehive in North London, England. The studios were both originally constructed for work on their two previous studio albums, 2008's Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends and 2011's Mylo Xyloto.\n\nSwedish record producer Avicii was invited by the band to collaborate on \"A Sky Full of Stars\". In addition to producing the track, he was also asked by lead singer Chris Martin to play and record the piano parts. However, Martin later stated in a BBC Radio 1 interview with Zane Lowe that he felt that he had \"cheated\" on the band by asking Avicii to play the piano instead of him.\nThe single art for \"A Sky Full of Stars\" was etched by UK-based, Czech etching artist Mila Fürstová. The artwork continues the motif of artworks in the Ghost Stories album cycle, which feature a scene occurring in a larger, enclosed body. Multiple figures such as angels with wings like of the Ghost Stories artwork, buildings such as a church, and objects such as a maze and a chair, also alluding to those in the Ghost Stories artwork, are depicted encased in a three-dimensional star chart. The artwork is reminiscent of Fürstová's earlier work, Other Skies, which also features various figures, buildings and objects imposed onto a star map.\nThe official music video was directed by Mat Whitecross and the shooting took place on King Street in Newtown, a suburb of Sydney, on 17 June 2014. It was released on 19 June. At the beginning of the video, Coldplay's lead singer, Chris Martin, walks through Sydney's streets dressed as a one-man band, singing the first verse of the song. Then he reaches the other members of the band (also dressed as one-man bands) and, together, they play the instrumental refrain. Martin is then seen walking through the street, without the other members, while he sings the second verse. At the end of the video the band reunites in a square, singing and playing the final part of the song with a crowd of fans. While Martin is singing the final part, many paper-made stars are blown into the square.","music_video":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VPRjCeoBqrI"},{"thumb":"https://r2.theaudiodb.com/images/media/track/thumb/tspwyx1340356685.jpg","track":"The Hardest Part","track_id":"32724224","description":"\"The Hardest Part\" is a song by British alternative rock band Coldplay.

It appeared on the United States Billboard Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks chart and peaked at number 37, making it Coldplay's first appearance on that chart and helping establish moderate success at AC radio for future singles like \"Viva la Vida\", \"Paradise\", and \"Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall\". \"The Hardest Part\" also charted in Australia, Italy and New Zealand.\n\nThe song was well received by critics. The track was complimented for its musical style. Regional singles were released in Canada, Europe, and Australia; a different version was released in Taiwan. Promo singles were released for the UK and US. The international version of the single was made available in the UK on 19 June 2006.","music_video":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WAGbq3A9HfA"},{"track":"The Hardest Part","track_id":"35165996","description":"","music_video":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WAGbq3A9HfA"},{"track":"True Love","track_id":"33899808","description":"\"True Love\" is a song written by British alternative rock band Coldplay. The song was originally recorded for the band's sixth studio album Ghost Stories, where it appears as the fourth track. It was released by Parlophone as the third single from Ghost Stories on 14 August 2014. The song was written by Guy Berryman, Jonny Buckland, Will Champion and Chris Martin, with production being done by Coldplay, Paul Epworth, Daniel Green and Rik Simpson, while American record producer Timbaland provided additional drums.\n\nThe song's main instrumentation consists in heavy rhythms, dancing synths and wallowing strings. It also features a guitar solo. Lyrically, \"True Love\" talks about heartache and how the protagonist can't bear the pain of losing his lover. The song's lyrics were adressed to be about Martin's divorce from his wife Gwyneth Paltrow, a recurrent theme on the whole album. Martin has claimed that \"True Love\" is the band's favorite track it has ever written.\n\nThe song received generally acclaim from most music critics, who commended the song's raw honesty and its lyrics, which were seen as haunting and painfully truthful. Commercially successful in Belgium and the Netherlands, \"True Love\" did not chart on the UK Singles Chart. The accompaning music video for the song was directed by Jonas Åkerlund, who also directed the \"Magic\" video. It was shot in Los Angeles and centres around a tale of two ballet-loving outsiders, played by Martin and Canadian actress Jessica Lucas.\nAfter the success of their fifth studio album, Mylo Xyloto (2011), which sold more than 8 million copies worldwide and spawned the hit singles \"Paradise\" and \"Princess of China\", Coldplay planned to release a more stripped-down record. Frontman Chris Martin claimed that the album is about “life itself and all its glorious colorfulness\", while critics noted that it was inspired in Martin's divorce from actress Gwyneth Paltrow, with \"Ghost Stories\" being deemed as a \"breakup album\". Martin elaborated: \"Up to a certain point in my life I wasn't completely vulnerable and it caused some problems. If you don't let love in then you can't really give it back. So what 'Ghost Stories' means to me is like, you've got to open yourself up to love and if you really do, of course it will be painful at times, but then it will be great at some point.\"\n\nOn 4 August 2011, the band announced \"True Love\" as the album's third single, along with its artwork, which was created by artist Mila Fürstová. The song was officially released on 14 August 2014. Regarding the decision to release \"True Love\" as a single, Martin commented: \"Sometimes we'll pick a single knowing that it doesn't really fit into how singles should sound or do sound. Our whole philosophy, especially recently, has been to follow our gut feeling. If we feel like this record needs to be a bit smaller and shouldn't tour it, then we follow it, and we worry about the consequences afterwards.\n\"True Love\" was written by Guy Berryman, Jonny Buckland, Will Champion and Chris Martin, with production being handled by the band with Paul Epworth, Daniel Green and Rik Simpson. American record producer Timbaland provided additional drums, while Davide Rossi arranged strings. The song is written in the key of G major, with a moderate tempo of 120 beats per minute. Martin's vocal range spans from the low note of E4 to the high note of G6. Its instrumentation consist in heavy rhythms, dancing synths and wallowing strings. Chris DeVille of Stereogum noted that the song has \"Timbaland show up to add 'Apologize'-style schmaltz\" and \"a mournful guitar solo.\"\n\nLyrically, \"True Love\" deals with themes of heartbreak, with Martin lashing out at his lover’s alleged lies, even as he strains to bring back the old feelings: \"And I wish you would have let me know/ What’s really going on below/ I’ve lost you now, you’ve let me go/ But one last time/ Tell me you love me,\" he sings. In the chorus, the truth is too painful to bear, so the singer instructs his partner, \"Just tell me you love me/If you don't, then lie/Oh, lie to me.\"\nThe song's music video was directed by Jonas Åkerlund, who also directed the \"Magic\" video. It was shot in Los Angeles and premiered on 22 August 2014. The video stars Chris Martin and Canadian actress Jessica Lucas. It centres around a tale of two ballet-loving outsiders and the message behind the video is about \"in spite of the obstacles blocking our access, 'anything is possible'.\" According to Åkerlund, the video \"came about in the same way as 'Magic' did. One thing I said early was that I wanted it to be very different in tone from 'Magic'. But related somehow because it has a story.\"","music_video":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wpl_6jotaHA"},{"track":"Hypnotised (EP mix)","track_id":"34814838","music_video":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WXmTEyq5nXc"},{"thumb":"https://r2.theaudiodb.com/images/media/track/thumb/syswqy1340354244.jpg","track":"Yellow","track_id":"32724184","description":"\"Yellow\" is a song by British alternative rock band Coldplay. The band wrote the song and co-produced it with British record producer Ken Nelson for their debut album, Parachutes (2000). The song's lyrics are a reference to band vocalist Chris Martin's unrequited love.\n\nThe song was recorded in march 2000 and released in June 2000 as the second single from Parachutes, following \"Shiver\", and the lead single in the United States. The single reached number four in the UK Singles Chart, giving the band their first top-five hit in the United Kingdom. Helped by heavy rotation and usage in promotions, the song thrust the band into massive popularity. \"Yellow\" has since been covered by various recording artists worldwide, and remains one of the band's most popular songs.","music_video":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKNxeF4KMsY"},{"thumb":"https://r2.theaudiodb.com/images/media/track/thumb/ywtwps1553377148.jpg","track":"Yellow","track_id":"35161703","description":"","music_video":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKNxeF4KMsY"},{"thumb":"https://r2.theaudiodb.com/images/media/track/thumb/ywryws1340354656.jpg","track":"Don't Panic","track_id":"32724180","description":"\"Don't Panic\" is a song written and recorded by British alternative rock band Coldplay. Originally titled \"Panic\", the earliest known version of the song existed in 1998, performed live during the band's first gig in the same year. It had a different melody, and was included in the band's second EP, The Blue Room. The track was reproduced by Coldplay and British producer Ken Nelson for the band's debut studio album, Parachutes.\n\nFollowing their successful releases in 2000, Coldplay and their record label Parlophone thought there was enough exposure of the album in the United Kingdom. Thus, the decision of releasing a fourth single would be for regions that had not been overdosed by the hit singles \"Yellow\" and \"Trouble\". They settled on \"Don't Panic\", which at the time was an audience favorite. The single was released in some European regions, and the United Kingdom only received a promo edition. The critical reception of the song was generally positive.\n\nOn 19 July 2011, the song was played as a wake-up call to STS-135 Space Shuttle Atlantis Pilot Doug Hurley as a tribute from his wife and family, marking the last ever wake-up call for a crew visiting the International Space Station from the Space Shuttle fleet.","music_video":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWeuUwpEQfs"},{"thumb":"https://r2.theaudiodb.com/images/media/track/thumb/xurwxs1495702849.jpg","track":"Hymn for the Weekend","track_id":"34793128","description":"\"Hymn for the Weekend\" is a song by British rock band Coldplay, featuring uncredited vocals by American singer Beyoncé. It was released on 25 January 2016 as the second single from their seventh studio album, A Head Full of Dreams (2015). The song was written by the members of Coldplay and produced by Rik Simpson, Tim Bergling, Digital Divide, and Stargate.\n\n\"Hymn for the Weekend\" has reached number six on the UK Singles Chart and also reached the top twenty in countries such as Switzerland, Ireland, France, Sweden, Austria, Belgium, Italy and Spain. In the US, with the Seeb remix, the song reached number 25 on the US Billboard Hot 100. A music video for the song was released on 29 January 2016 and features Coldplay and Beyoncé in various cities in India.\n\nThe song was debuted on Annie Mac's BBC radio show on 30 November 2015, and Coldplay bassist Guy Berryman dialed in after the song aired to talk about his brush with royalty. According to Berryman, lead singer Chris Martin originally wanted the song to be a party song with the lyrics \"drinks on me, drinks on me\", but fortunately his bandmates didn't think that would go well with their fans. Martin's longtime friend Beyoncé was asked to sing on the song, and she accepted the request.\n\nMartin corroborated Berryman's story about the band protesting him singing, \"Drinks on me, drinks on me\" in an interview with The Wall Street Journal. According to Martin, the original kernel was that he \"was listening to Flo Rida or something\", and he thought, \"it's such a shame that Coldplay could never have one of those late-night club songs, like \"Turn Down for What\". I thought I’d like to have a song called 'Drinks on Me' where you sit on the side of a club and buy everyone drinks because you're so fucking cool,\" Martin recalled. \"I was chuckling about that, when this melody came, 'drinks on me, drinks on me', then the rest of the song came out. I presented it to the rest of the band and they said, 'We love this song, but there's no way you can sing \"drinks on me.\"' So that changed into 'drink from me' and the idea of having an angelic person in your life. Then that turned into asking Beyoncé to sing on it.\"\n\n\"Hymn for the Weekend\" is written in the key of C minor set in a 4\n4 time signature at a moderate tempo of 90 beats per minute.\n\nAccording to The Times of India, the video was shot in October 2015 at various Indian cities including Varanasi, Worli Village, Mumbai and Kolkata. The fort showcased at the start and in between is Bassein Fort aka Saint Sebastian's Fort located in Vasai, Mumbai. The video was also shot at the famous Maratha Mandir theatre which is reputed for showcasing a single film for 15 straight years. The video is themed on the North Indian festival of Holi. The video was filmed by Ben Mor, and was released on 29 January 2016. The video features Beyoncé and Indian actress Sonam Kapoor.\n\nThe music video was criticized on Indian social media network for its stereotypical portrayal of Indian society.\n\nIt has over 730 million views as of May 2017, becoming the most viewed music video for both Coldplay and Beyoncé.","music_video":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YykjpeuMNEk"}],"artist_id":"111239"},"meta":{"timestamp":"2026-06-08T01:20:06.571Z","request_id":"08697ab7-4aa8-4bb5-8e7f-ad0018c97205"},"status":"ok","message":"Videos
