if Coldplay ever got tired of holding concerts and started doing stand-up shows instead... I think I'd be okay with that

[@anthonyneitzel3635]

Why not both😂 Give each member a 20 minute comedy set after a 2 hour concert and I'll pay triple 😂😂

[@TraceyOfficial]

I thought the same thing

[@tightsac]

if coldplay ever got tired of concerts and took up serial killing i wouldnt be suprised

[@knightreynellofthewoods]

Agreed

[@nobodyishere]

"if I can't eat it, can't drink it, I really don't want it" - Natalie, 2021 Words to live by😂

[@hollygolightly8943]

Right. I am her! she is me!😂

[@stephaniezimbalist3757]

I would add If I can't wear it.

[@MsCizz]

100 % sure with Natalie

[@HaybaleMelon]

Not wrong though

[@CavanOGrady413]

Certainly words my dog lives by.

[@roshanvarghese5868]

I lost it when Johnny said he'd be a bit sad if his marriage ended through a text 😂. I'm so glad they brought this show back

[@ashleyme270]

Went deep out of nowhere 🤣

[@ryeofoatmeal]

Chris was speechless, Greg was speechless. I am speechless too 🤣🤣

[@lumilara]

That was hilarious 😂😂😂

[@coldplaymay]

I like how Chris and Jonny look at each other when they comment. Like an old married couple. And I love that.

[@navi3430]

😂😂

[@ryeofoatmeal]

one thing I like about Chris is he always attentive to what his band mates are saying. he turns his head to them and listen. I think it's a very nice gesture, means you're paying attention to them and their opinions matter

[@EvanNakagawa]

The Fix You instrumental during the last story KILLED ME

[@SuperKitty104]

“Do you want the music again?”😂😂😂

[@sarahf2022]

Greg: could you play us the Unpopular Opinions theme tune on our piano? Chris: Well I've only heard it once... no twice, sorry. Also Chris: *walks over to piano and plays super impressive version of theme tune*

[@CalderClan]

That was brilliant!

[@jni9362]

Greg was in disbelief

[@luferreira8928]

@@jni9362 Everyone was in disbelief lol

[@akashh.]

Actually, they have been in music since more than two decades.

[@tarijordan8922]

Chris is the Mozart to the theme's Salieri.

[@putrii4450]

1. Jonny's "I suppose I'd be a bit sad if that's how my marriage ended" is GOLD!!! 😂😂😂 2. I LOVEEEEE how Chris and Jonny look at each other when they talk

[@matttarry8847]

'Or we could call him DAV1D' is an underrated line

[@luciazunino3469]

This was hilarious. JONNY was hilarious. Greg James you absolute king

[@jasonmillington4344]

Chris Martin is such a nice guy. Need more of him

[@MarthaRakuoane]

I love how Jonny got up every time Chris did. So endearing.

[@philfantastik]

I think it was just so viewers could see him playing the piano.

[@ryeofoatmeal]

@@philfantastik it took me a while to realise bcos I thought their cables are connected. but it just that johnny stand up bcos he blocked the piano view 😆

[@danielacastro9796]

nobody makes me laugh like Chris Martin man, he's just so effortlessly funny

[@navi3430]

He’s so adorable

[@Blue_Lugia]

I totally agree with you. I don't think he understand how funny he is.

[@Denis-89]

They are so genuine and down to earth, like three best friends having a laugh and inviting all of us!

[@adamcameron4123]

Now i can’t unsee Gwenyth Paltrow ending her marriage with Chris in a cafe over some mini eggs

[@cybermozzie]

Now I can't either, lol. Chris is right about the mini eggs.

[@tomgidden]

Mini eggs? Missed opportunity to sing “I will try to Twix you”

[@ryeofoatmeal]

noooo lmfao 🤣😭😭

"You should learn more lines" Oh my God Jonny !!!

[@simonsaysrewind]

😆glad you typed that... was in stitches.

[@MylotheZooLovingScientist]

My God, this is fantastic. That initial exchange between Naomi and Chris was hilarious, love how quick they fed off the lines of the other.

[@mellinaalmeida4532]

THE WAY THAT HE PLAYED THE PIANO ONLY LISTENING TO IT TWICE OMG I LOVE HIM

[@navi3430]

IT’S AMAZING

[@anushvis9113]

Chris : "I really love mini eggs!" Greg: *wheezes*

[@aribenjamin3401]

I love Coldplay so much. They makes the best music and they are the most genuine, funny, down to earth celebrities

[@lailas3301]

" or we could call him DAV1D " 🤣

[@GeorgeDemin]

That was great 😂

[@monicatmura]

Natalie was right about the flowers. Also, I rather be dumped by text too. I forget what I’m supposed to say in person 😂

[@_UNISTAR_]

I guess it depends on how long the relationship's lasted. in shorter cases, a text might be better but ain't no fuckin way that's acceptable if it's been more than a year or somethin.

[@NanoAikano]

Yup. Anything works really. I need closure. He didn’t say anything he just blocks all my social media

[@78ABates]

I love Chris. I just can't help wondering how it is that all of his t-shirts for his entire lifetime were purchased when he was twelve.

[@lenadahling]

😂 Same!

[@ryeofoatmeal]

Johnny took it to another level when he said it must be sad if my marriage ended that way and Chris just like IT'S A FUN RADIO GAME 😂😭😭💀

[@peachesandpoets]

All of Coldplay is just so kind and sweet. So many years of them being musical hugs 🤗

[@aw4925]

Chris and Jonny are such great mates. Same sense of humour. This is so funny.

[@ciaranalgar]

This one video features two of Jonny's greatest ever lines and I'm here for it

[@michaeld7446]

Chris has such a 👌 sense of humor.

@2:54 the theme song piano moment was super impressive!

[@de4830]

as a pianist as well playing something by ear like that is so hard!! it was amazing

[@heidibaltom8138]

I love how deadpan they are. Makes it even more funny

[@aquablushgirl]

This was brilliant. I absolutely love this feature, Greg is so good at it. You knew it was going to be good with the Coldplay lads, Chris and Jonny are always up for a laugh.

[@lostmyh6732]

they're always so freaking hilarious and genuine with everything they say, I was laughing so hard I love them ♡

[@aBunnyThatWillChewOnYourCables]

8:03 When you try your best but you don't succeed When you share the chocolate mini eggs but your boarding school girlfriend leaves When she hides another one in her sleeve Not sharing anymoreeeee And the tears come streaming down your face When one rolls away under the chair When you love them so much but one goes to waste Could it be worse? Lights will guide you to the corner store To get some more And I will try to not eat them so quickly

[@skittishsquibbles5951]

Oh my Guy, that was beautiful 😂😂 also nice username hahaha

How can you not love Chris Martin

[@Blue_Lugia]

Just the fact that we don't really know if he is like this when out of the limelight. Except for the ones who knows him in person.

Unpopular Opinion : That Unpopular Opinion song should just play once during the segment. It plays far too often for my liking and never fails to get on my nerves!

[@LauraBoschSerra]

Couldn't wait to hear the song + unpopular opinions live at 09:00 Figueres (Barcelona). I've been the whole week looking forward to it! And finally...🥁🥁🥁 Amazing song + kindest souls. 🎶 I planned a whole trip around New Zealand after buying a ticket for the Auckland concert on December 3rd 2016. Can't wait to live the experience again. I just need to know the tour dates and I'm in!!
