“Now this is for Taylor Swift because she left town,” Martin said on stage that prompted thunderous applause and cheers from his spectators.

He continued, “This is for all of you who feel sad today because Taylor had to go to the next city,” adding, “So we sing this love song, this heartbreak song, and send it to Taylor wherever she is today,” after which he proceeded to perform the song.

Coldplay is expected to perform two concerts in the city of Düsseldorf, at the Merkur Spiel-Arena on July 20 and 21.

Additionally, their overseas gigs follow the 2024 Glastonbury Festival, which was their headlining set held on Saturday, June 29.
