Coldplay’s Chris Martin Playfully Roasts Fan Who Requested ‘Fix It’ With Improvised Song: ‘If You Come Along, Don’t Get the Name of the Song Wrong’


Coldplay performed for only 600-or-so lucky fans in Brooklyn on Monday, playing hits like 'Viva La Vida' and 'Yellow' — and the improvised 'Fix It.'

Martin opened the SiriusXM show with “Moon Music,” from the band’s new album of the same name, before Coldplay threw it way back to 2002 with “God Put a Smile Upon Your Face,” as Jonny Buckland sent his guitar into overdrive. Martin played the piano on the live debut of “The Karate Kid,” which name-drops Daniel LaRusso in the chorus, and he brought an audience member onstage to dance with him to “Something Just Like This,” which extended into an EDM jam. Before playing the 10-minute ballad “Coloratura,” from the band’s 2021 album “Music of the Spheres,” Martin gave people permission to go to the bathroom — this one was for the die-hard fans, even if it bored some casual listeners who snagged spots on the guest list.
