Barcelona. (EFE).- Hacía tres años que Coldplay no visitaba Barcelona en concierto, exceptuando el exclusivo del pasado 17 de mayo en el Espacio Movistar, y eso se ha notado en el concierto que la banda de rock ha ofrecido hoy ante sus seguidores, que han aprovechado la oportunidad y han respondido masivamente.

Después de su paso por Alemania y Francia en el tour de presentación de su cuarto disco, 'Viva la Vida and Death or All His Friends', el cuarteto británico, con Albert Hammond Jr. como telonero, ha realizado un concierto apoteósico de unas dos horas que ha cubierto las espectativas de sus fervientes 'fans'.

 

En un Palau Sant Jordi digno de las mejores veladas, el vocalista del grupo, Chris Martin, ha entrado a escena con más de diez minutos de retraso pero con ganas de demostrar que ha desaparecido el fantasma de U2, y que las voces que afirmaban que sería un grupo de éxito de poco tiempo se van desvaneciendo.

 

El vocalista del cuarteto ha aparecido tras unas gasas negras que cubrían el escenario y con la chaqueta característica de esta gira, y el sonido de Coldplay ha cubierto el Palau Sant Jordi, unido casi en sincronía con las voces de todos los asistentes.

 

La banda de rock británica ha empezado con el inicio clásico de esta gira, la instrumental 'Live in Technicolor', y el público ha empezado su entrega continuada al grupo británico con el grito de los miles de seguidores que han abarrotado el recinto y que han ido al concierto predispuestos a disfrutar de una velada inigualable.

 

Sin tregua, ha llegado el primer momento importante de la noche con 'Violet Hill', una de las canciones más aclamadas del cuarto disco de la banda liderada por Martin, 'Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends', título inspirado en un cuadro homónimo de Frida Kahlo.

 

Tras ésta, el saludo en catalán de Martin con un perfecto 'Bona nit' (buenas noches), y sin dejar lugar a dudas que han venido a Barcelona con ganas de arrasar, Coldplay ha entonado los primeros acordes de uno de sus temas más célebres, 'Clocks', de su segundo álbum 'A Rush of Blood to the Head'.

 

De este disco también han interpretado 'God Put a Smile on Your Face', lejos del escenario y arrinconados en un lateral, exprimiendo las ganas de conectar con el público hasta el extremo para no dejar ninguna duda de que el sello Coldplay está penetrando en el público barcelonés.

 

Martin no se ha quedado aquí, ya que durante todo el recital ha conectado con el público sin descanso, moviéndose de un lado para otro, gustándose y gustando a unos seguidores que, para no quedarse atrás, se han entregado a las melodías del grupo británico, ante lo que el vocalista sólo ha podido decir que había "un público increíble".

 

Durante la velada, la banda ha repasado hasta ocho de los diez temas de 'Viva la Vida', un disco que Coldplay quería que tuviera una duración de 45 minutos, conscientes de que los jóvenes de hoy en día no tienen mucho tiempo y suelen escuchar la música en solitario.

 

La rotunda 'Viva la vida', 'Chinese Sleep Chant', '42', 'Lost', la acústica 'Strawberry Swing', han sido algunas de las canciones del último álbum visitadas en el concierto, y que los seguidores han entonado como si fueran clásicos de la banda.

 

En un concierto de estas magnitudes no podían faltar canciones que ya se han convertido en hitos de la banda de Martin, como 'Yellow', 'Fix You' o 'Speed of Sound', tres temas que los seguidores de Coldplay han deletreado hasta quedar sin voz.

 

Tras este concierto, Coldplay actuará mañana en el Palacio de Deportes de Madrid, también con las entradas agotadas, para acabar el paso por España de la gira de presentación del disco que publicaron hace tres meses.

Taken from a report of the England match:

 

When was the last time Beckham was a substitute? Not that long ago, at Real Madrid — under Capello. Switching the match from Andorra to Barcelona did little for the attendance, with barely a quorum present. There were long queues outside before the kick-off — but they were for Coldplay, who were in concert next door.

(just remember that I'm not good traslating stuff :uhoh: and also deleted some not so important parts )

 

 

 

Barcelona. (EFE).- it's been 3 years since the last time that coldplay visited Barcelona, except for the past may 17th exclusive show at Espacio Movistar, and this has been noticed in the show that the rock band did today in front of their fans, which responded in a great way

 

After their shows in Germany and France where they were presenting their lastest album, 'Viva la Vida and Death or All His Friends', the british quartet, with Albert Hammond Jr. as opening act, made a great show which in 2 hours filled the expectations of their fervert fans.

 

 

In a Palau Sant Jordi as in its best nights, the singer of the band, Chris Martin, went to the stage more than 10 minutes later but looking forward to show that the U2's ghost has been dissapeared, and that the voices which said that coldplay would be a short time success band, are waning.

 

 

The frontman appeared behind some black ¿¿ fabrics?? which were covering the stage and with the typical jacket of this tour, and the sound of Coldplay covered the Palau Sant Jordi, joined almost in synchrony with the fans' voices.

 

 

The british rock band started the show with the classical start in this tour, with the instrumental 'Live in Technicolor'. Later, it came the first important moment of the night, with "violet hill", one of the most popular songs of the band's 4th record, "Viva la vida or death and all his friends", which title was inspired in a Frida Kahlo's painting.

 

After that song, Chris Martin said hi in catalán, with a perfect "Bona nit" (good evening). Then the band played one of their most successful songs, "Clocks" of their 2nd album, A rush of blood to the head".

 

 

from this album, they also performed 'God Put a Smile on Your Face', far from the stage in a side of the venue.

 

During the show, the band played eight of the 10 songs of Viva la vida, a record which the band wanted to have a lenght og 45 minutes.

 

The big "Viva la vida", 'Chinese Sleep Chant', '42', 'Lost', the acoustic 'Strawberry Swing', have been some of the songs of the last record performed at the show... and which the fans sang as these would be coldplay's classic songs

 

In a concert of this importance, couldn't be absent some of the coldplay's milestones, as Yellow, Fix You or Speed of Sound... songs that the coldplay fans sang until they almost lost their voices

 

En un concierto de estas magnitudes no podían faltar canciones que ya se han convertido en hitos de la banda de Martin, como 'Yellow', 'Fix You' o 'Speed of Sound', tres temas que los seguidores de Coldplay han deletreado hasta quedar sin voz.

 

After the show, Coldplay will perform tomorrow at the Palacio de deportes in Madrid, with sold out tickets, to finish their spanish visit, promoting the album that they released 3 months ago.
