Chris Martin's top acoustic performances
The great people at Fresh 102.7 FM have compiled a list of Chris Martin's top acoustic performances over the years. Enjoy fellow Coldplayers, the are many gems to delightfully watch!
Viva La Vida
Off of Coldplay’s fourth studio album “Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends,” this song is arguably Coldplay’s most popular song. Released in 2008, it is still being played on the radio six years later. This specific acoustic performance is extremely special to the New York City area, as it is from 12-12-12: The Concert For Sandy Relief.
Yellow
With the combination of the talents of two members of great rock bands, you are bound to get a pretty good acoustic performance. Chris Martin was joined by Oasis’ Noel Gallagher to perform Coldplay’s successful hit “Yellow.”

Trouble
This one is a bit of a throwback, but it could not be ignored. Chris Martin performed an acoustic version of one of Coldplay’s earlier hits “Trouble.” This song comes off of their 2000 studio album “Parachute.”
Tut tut, "Parachutes"!
Fix You
Joined by band mate Jonny Buckland, Chris Martin sang an acoustic version of “Fix You” for charity. From their third studio album “X&Y,” “Fix You” is one of Coldplay’s most beautifully produced songs.
Paradise
The success of Coldplay’s music has not dwindled since the beginning of their career. “Paradise” is one of their newer hits, released in 2011. Chris Martin performs the song acoustically, and flawlessly, on the piano.
Chris also utilized the success of “Paradise” to experiment with featuring different genres. He has performed the song live with Rihanna and rapper Jay Z.
Every Teardrop is a Waterfall
Again, band mate Jonny Buckland teamed up with Chris Martin for an acoustic performance of the hit song “Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall.” The song is featured on Coldplay’s studio album “Mylo Xyloto,” and was chosen as the first single, leading to its success.
Wedding Bells
While Chris Martin mostly sings Coldplay’s best hits, in this acoustic performance he sang an unreleased song. “Wedding Bells” was meant to be on “Mylo Xyloto” alongside “Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall” and “Paradise,” but it unfortunately did not make the cut.
