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

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

[Hobi_]

this song transmits so many memories to me and nostalgia is beautiful

[DorieBee-BARElynecessary]

This was the first Coldplay song I ever heard, never get tired of hearing it

I love how Chris sang this part. 4:08 - 4:17. It's so beautiful. I also loved how he did some variations with the chords he played in the outro part. I love this version so much.

[Shivam-biuo]

Chris looks so good especially here.
Coldplay is basically the scientist for me who makes such beautiful songs.

A sad Chris on the piano is still my favorite 🎶🖤

"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

No song has impacted my life like this one. Bloody hell I’m in tears

[jamietran]

The scientist will always have a special place in my heart

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!

[chemiejayroma]

Chris's voice might changed but it still sounds good. This song is already 19 years old 🙌

[Lozenger]

Not an old song. One of the best songs ever written. By a great band. Legends. You don’t know how good you are. Thanks for creating it.x

[Caspal]

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! :)

[sassyscribe]

I respectfully disagree, Chris Martin. It’s a legendary song by a legendary band.

[raradis]

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

[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.

[Shivam-biuo]

They're absolutely gods when it comes at performing live. They can legit make any song sound 100x better live, shows how talented and versatile they're.

[jackhopkins]

wow, chris’ improv with the piano chords, makes the song somehow 10x better, love it

[rishibector]

This version has taken up the song to a whole new level. Ending is just marvellous. Goosebumps indeed.

[Daniel-qmbq]

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