After independently releasing an extended play, Safety (1998), Coldplay signed with Parlophone in 1999. The band's debut album, Parachutes (2000), included their breakthrough single "Yellow" and received a Brit Award for British Album of the Year, a Grammy Award for Best Alternative Music Album and a Mercury Prize nomination. Their second album, A Rush of Blood to the Head (2002), won the same accolades and included "Clocks", which earned a Grammy Award for Record of the Year. In 2005, they released X&Y; the album was marked by a troubled production and various delays, completing what the band considered a trilogy as well. Coldplay's fourth effort, Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends (2008), received a Grammy Award for Best Rock Album and their first Album of the Year nomination, while its title track was the first British group song to reach number-one in the United Kingdom and United States simultaneously in the 21st century. Both X&Y and Viva la Vida were the best-selling albums of their respective years, topping the charts in more than 30 countries each.
Since then, Coldplay further diversified their sound with the subsequent releases Mylo Xyloto (2011), Ghost Stories (2014), A Head Full of Dreams (2015), Everyday Life (2019) and Music of the Spheres (2021). Each album presented a unique theme and added new musical styles to the band's original repertoire, including electronica, ambient, pop, R&B, funk, classical, jazz fusion, and progressive rock. They are also known for "euphoric" live performances, which NME said are when the band "come alive and make the most sense". To celebrate their 20th anniversary in 2018, a career-spanning documentary directed by Mat Whitecross was premiered at selected cinemas, featuring previously unseen behind-the-scenes footage.
With 100 million albums sold worldwide, Coldplay are the most successful band of the 21st century and one of the best-selling music acts of all time. According to Fuse, they are also the sixth-most awarded group in history. Other notable achievements include the seventh-highest-grossing tour of all time, three of the 50 highest-selling albums ever in the United Kingdom, the most number-one records in the country without ever missing the top, most nominations and wins for a band in Brit Awards history, and becoming the first British group to debut at number-one on the Billboard Hot 100. Coldplay are considered one of the most influential bands of the 21st century as well, with Forbes describing them as the standard for the current alternative scene. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame included A Rush of Blood to the Head on their "200 Definitive Albums" list and the single "Yellow" is part of their "Songs That Shaped Rock and Roll" exhibition for being one of the most successful and important recordings in the industry. In spite of their popularity and impact, Coldplay have earned a reputation as polarizing music icons.

Coldplay Lyrics

Ot emoclew cisuM eht fo serehpS
Rebmemer, erehwrmos nelia na si enoyrevE
The lyrics of Coldplay's Music of the Spheres II may seem confusing at first, but upon closer analysis, they are actually quite thought-provoking. The phrase "Nemeltneg dna seidaL" is simply the phrase "Descending and Element" written backwards. This could be interpreted as a reference to the natural cycle of life, with everything eventually descending and returning to its base element. The next line, "Ot emoclew cisuM eht fo serehpS," means "The Sphere of Music we come to" when read backwards. This could symbolize the idea of music serving as a universal language that brings people together.
The last line of the song, "Rebmemer, erehwrmos nelia na si enoyrevE," means "Everyone is alien somewhere, remember," when read backwards. This line is perhaps the most powerful of the song, reminding us that even though we may feel like outsiders in certain situations, we are all human and should strive to understand and connect with others.

This is one of the most moving pieces I’ve ever heard, it just might be my new favorite.
@strikerbowls791
Agreed. Probably their best song
@bojcotrojc3096
You exaggerate. It may be that this song is on of the best, including all the popular music existing, but if it is No1 for you, I feel pity for you.
