Coldplay - The Scientist in the Live Lounge

Coldplay take us back in time with a beautiful rendition of tear jerker 'The Scientist' from the BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge

[@annapoluektova9990]

God, this is beyond beautiful. Didn’t think it’s possible to make this song even more perfect.

[@vladkrus5796]

The original version are much perfect. See Chris cant sing his massive song the scientist. Haha well thats depend on a his feeling to its music😁

2:18 That piano improvisation!!

[@damonabets3779]

Yes! And I do think he probably forgot to play it lol or didn’t like how it originally sounded to him. Don’t get me wrong Coldplay is a very talented band I love this song it just seemed like they definitely had to re learn or maybe they changed it around for the live performance.

[@lebigfin5251]

@@damonabets3779 what? Lmao it’s 4 chords how could they forget it. He’s probably just changing it up because it’s boring to play the same thing for 20 years in a row

He somehow managed to take one of his classic songs and made it even better. Absolutely phenomenal live. What a talent.

Man these guys are still so humble considering how big they are globally! The mots tour already sold 1.4 million tickets and that's just few countries in europe including in stade de france 4times and wembley stadium 6 times all sold out!

[@djfhfh]

I love Coldplay but they haven't sold out any of the UK dates tickets are still available , infact only ones I could find in Friday when they went on sale were 270 pound , found ones for 55 pound yesterday, I went to the head full of dreams tour in Ireland 2017 which sold out in under ten minutes 80,000 , I think it's due to covid they haven't sold out any night on their UK tour 3 nights London or 2 nights Glasgow

[@chemiejayroma7908]

@@djfhfh you can literally find it in their official social media page,they posted it there. All 6 dates in wembley are sold out while they made history to be the only group/band who will play 4 nights in stade de france and 4 nights in king baudouin stadium in brussels. They already sold more than 1 million tickets across europe and that's just a few countries with multiple dates. Well the US dates seems like very slow to catch up only 1 venue sold out and that's in soldier Field chichago.

Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry You don't know how lovely you are I had to find you, tell you I need you Tell you I set you apart Tell me your secrets and ask me your questions Oh, let's go back to the start Running in circles, coming up tails Heads on a science apart Nobody said it was easy It's such a shame for us to part Nobody said it was easy No one ever said it would be this hard Oh, take me back to the start I was just guessing at numbers and figures Pulling the puzzles apart Questions of science, science and progress Do not speak as loud as my heart But tell me you love me, come back and haunt me Oh and I rush to the start Running in circles, chasing our tails Coming back as we are Nobody said it was easy Oh, it's such a shame for us to part Nobody said it was easy No one ever said it would be so hard I'm going back to the start Oh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh Ah ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh Oh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh Oh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh

[@garzillapiano1308]

This is the best piano version of the scientist I’ve ever heard

[@Daniel-qm5bq]

I love everytime they perform this live, Chris always changes it up a bit like when he plays different notes on the piano

[@raradis]

Indeed, this song is like a time machine, and always gets me back to when "it was easy" ..

[@izzyrosie2627]

I could hear Chris voice waking me up every single day until the last day of my life.

[@MossFamilyTravels]

This song reminds me of sitting in my political science statistics class, listening to it with my Professor who is now dead. RIP Dr. Pierce. I still remember you playing this for us.

[@JosephShambrook]

I lost count of how many times I’ve listened to this song and how many different variations, but this one might be my favourite ever. The intro, the muted chords, the improvisation of those high notes, the ending on such a high. Collectively a wonderful variation of a classic.

[@joelsalas4544]

x2 Completely!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Caspal24]

Somehow beautiful that they still perform this live and Chris sings "let's go back to the start". Of course not the start of their band but probably the start of something very unique and very big. Glad to have some tickets for next year! :)

[@markbyrne9448]

Couldn’t agree more with this comment. Very well said 👏

[@giulial1258]

"You don't know how lovely you are". I have always struggled to build a healthy relationship with myself. This sentence reminds me that I have to love myself first to connect with the world around me. No therapists, friends or whatever could convince me about this when I was at my worst. Then one day I came across this song, and that sentence hit me as an epiphany. Since that day I slowly started to build my life again and to respect myself, in a sense. Now, every time I'm struggling, I come back to this song (not necessarily this version, which, btw, is awesome) to remind myself to keep going. I'm beyond that grateful to these guys for this song and for a bunch of other ones
