gai Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Edit by Sparky - Track by Coldplay and Cat Power released - more info and links here Braff filled Garden State, his 2004 directorial debut, with infectious tunes from the Shins, Simon & Garfunkel, and Coldplay. Wish I Was Here, his directorial followup — which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival and hits theaters across the country this summer — is similarly packed with cool music, including original songs from the Shins and Bon Iver. But Sundance audiences weren’t privy to the final piece to Braff’s eclectic soundtrack. “We also have an original song sung by Cat Power, written by Chris Martin,” Braff tells EW exclusively. “It wasn’t ready yet for [sundance]. It’s the title song of the movie. It’s one of the most amazing songs ever.” Wish I Was Here debuts in New York and Los Angeles July 18. The film opens in additional cities July 25. link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MosesTheMarshmallow Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 I think if this article is correct, and I hope it is, then crediting Coldplay as playing the song implies the whole band is featured, no? Even if Chris is the only listed writer. (Otherwise it'd be Cat Power ft. Chris Martin in the vein of Kanye West ft. Chris Martin or such).

HurtsLikeHeaven42 Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Coldplay in Wish I Was Here Soundtrack So I'm very sorry if this has already been posted but I couldn't seem to find it anywhere on here but...
