Watch Coldplay cover Prince on NPR’s Tiny Desk Concert
Chris Martin and Jonny Buckland also played songs from the band’s latest album, Everyday Life.
Coldplay might be more used to playing stadiums than office buildings but the band are the latest act to record a concert for NPR's Tiny Desk series. Chris Martin and Jonny Buckland of the band were joined by a host of backing singers (who Martin joked have "Photoshopped our songs to be much better than they actually are") for the live session, which you can view above. A highlight is their take on Prince's "1999," plus Coldplay fan favorite "Viva La Vida." The 20-minute set was rounded out by "Cry Cry Cry," "Broken" and "Champion of the World," all of which appeared on last year's Everyday Life
