Coldplay Praises BTS Performance When Singing Single Fix You, Is There Going to Be a Collaboration?

Kapanlagi.com - BTS surprised Army and music lovers around the world when they performed on MTV Unplugged Presents: BTS. In this legendary music event, J-Hope and his friends performed several songs such as Telephaty, Blue & Grey, Life Goes On, and Dynamite.

Not only performing their own singles, BTS also performed a song by Coldplay titled Fix You. With an arrangement similar to the original version, the vocals of the seven BTS members successfully brought this song into a new dimension. The vocal characters of RM, Suga, and J-Hope, who tend to have baritone voices, blend with the vocal lineup of Jungkook, V, Jimin, and Jin.

With BTS's magnificent performance of the song Fix You, Coldplay openly praised their performance. Through their official Twitter account, the band formed in 1996 expressed their admiration through a tweet in Korean, which means beautiful. They also sent greetings on behalf of all Coldplay members.

Both BTS and Coldplay actually have high ideals in covering songs. Throughout their career, there have been only a few moments when BTS performed songs by other musicians as a full team. Besides the single Come Back Home by Seo Taiji & Boys, it can be said that RM and others rarely perform singles from other musicians as a full team.

The same goes for Coldplay, as a legendary band that has produced 8 studio albums, Chris Martin and others are very selective in granting permission to use their songs to be performed live or in the studio. Especially for the song Fix You, which is one of the most sacred singles in Coldplay's entire discography.

Before BTS, Sam Smith was able to perform the song Fix You with maximum energy in 2020. Apart from that, Fix You is more often featured in charity events or tributes, because the message of this song is very profound.

About the Single Fix You by Coldplay

Fix You is the fourth track on the album X&Y released in 2005. This song was dedicated by Chris Martin to his partner at the time, Gwyneth Paltrow, who lost her father forever. With its high personal value and positive message in its lyrics that resonate with music lovers, the single Fix You is considered a sacred song and not every musician can perform it on stage.

With praise coming from the owner of this legendary song, will there be a collaboration project between BTS and Coldplay? We'll see.
