Coldplay perform 'unbelievable' new song about English football club at Radio 1's Big Weekend By Zac Campbell Published: 11:11, 27 May 2024 | Updated: 11:13, 27 May 2024 e-mail 9 shares 1 View comments Coldplay performed an 'an unbelievable' new song called Orange, dedicated to Luton Town Football Club, during the band's set at Radio 1's Big Weekend. The group, led by frontman Chris Martin , headlined the festival at Stockwood Park, in Luton on Sunday. It came after a campaign by Luton Town fans for the group to change the lyrics of its song Yellow to Orange due to the club's colours being orange and the team's rivalry with Watford, who play in yellow.

The frontman urged the audience to 'trust' him and 'relax' as he approached the end of the set . Before playing Yellow, which has been one of the band's biggest hits since it was released on their 2000 album Parachutes, Chris said the track had 'nothing to do with Luton'.
