Whoever came up with the idea to upload this deserves a raise 🙌

I remember waiting over 25 minutes to watch 2 minutes of this clip when it was uploaded to YouTube in 2006 (rough internet connection).

Jonny's tone is soooo good. One of the best guitar sounds ever, love you Buckland.

[ElmoPlayss]

After all this time and his voice is still as beautifull as it was back then!! I love it so much

[YouTubeKnight]

I feel ecstatic learning that Conan was Coldplay's first American television performance.

Conan & Coldplay! Two of my favourites!

[peterhopqk]

At that time, to me, this song was meh. I always thought Trouble was the big hit and I liked that song more. But I do appreciate Yellow more over the years. Parachutes is a masterpiece.

good song, they should sell a few records

Conan had the best musical guests - from Slipknot to Coldplay.

So, interesting, just last month I was learning to play this song in my accostic guitar. I stopped because my throat got sore by the singing 😅 by know i can play it.

And, I love both Coldplay 2000-2005 and Conan's show/staff (Greetings to Jordan!)

[YuhiJu]

Wow what a gem. They've blossomed so much

[austins.]

I don’t care what anyone says, this song is a masterpiece 🙏

[BrianKishreviews]

Not a huge Coldplay fan, I like them just fine but something feels really warm about Conan being their TV debut

[alyserendipity]

Still my favourite band after all these years… How far they’ve come! And on Oct 4 a new album!!!! ❤❤

Chris has definitely improved a lot over the years

In over 20 years, Guy Berryman has not changed one bit.

So young and fresh faced. Before all the hype. Love it when they all new and unknown.
A few bum notes there Chris

[you_tune]

Look at the stars
Look how they shine for you
And everything you do
Yeah, they were all yellow
I came along
I wrote a song for you
And all the things you do
And it was called Yellow
So then I took my turn
Oh, what a thing to have done
And it was all yellow
Your skin, oh yeah, your skin and bones
Turn into something beautiful
And you know, you know I love you so
You know I love you so
I swam across
I jumped across for you
Oh, what a thing to do
'Cause you were all yellow
I drew a line
I drew a line for you
Oh, what a thing to do
And it was all yellow
And your skin, oh yeah, your skin and bones
Turn into something beautiful
And you know, for you, I'd bleed myself dry
For you, I'd bleed myself dry
It's true
Look how they shine for you
Look how they shine for you
Look how they shine for
Look how they shine for you
Look how they shine for you
Look how they shine
Look at the stars
Look how they shine for you
And all the things that you do
