Coldplay is feeling for the Swifties in Germany!
While performing in concert in Düsseldorf, Germany, on Saturday, July 20, Coldplay’s Chris Martin dedicated the band’s 2016 song “Everglow” to Taylor Swift after her recent departure from the nearby city of Gelsenkirchen following her Eras Tour shows there.
In a video posted on TikTok of the wholesome moment, Martin, 47, sat onstage by a piano at the Merkur Spiel-Arena, as he said, “Now this is for Taylor Swift because she left town,” before cheers erupted from the concertgoers.
“This is for all of you who feel sad today because Taylor had to go to the next city,” he continued. “So we sing this love song, this heartbreak song, and send it to Taylor wherever she is today.” Martin then went ahead and played the track.
