Coldplay are in Sydney’s Newtown right the fuck now, filming the video for their upcoming single ‘A Sky Full Of Stars’. What are you even doing still reading this? Why are you not racing down there to cop a face-full of confetti and good vibes and maybe sniff one of Chris Martin‘s life-giving hommus and radicchio-scented burps? God, I hate you so much sometimes.

LOOK, FINE. I guess that if you’re unwilling to make the trip down there yourself, you can relive the experience through us via the magic of social media.

Look at all this fucking confetti. Are you feeling the love yet?

The locals are feeling hella whimsical about this incursion of sweeping, heartfelt pop, or at least the ones who aren’t feeling grumpy because the damn street had to be shut down.

Chris stopped to give fans a singing lesson …

That lady on the right is certainly not feeling the good vibes. ‘When she was just a gi-iiiirl, she expected a cake from Black Sta-aaar, but it flew away from her re-aaach, because Chris Martin blocked off the stre-eeeet.’

“Never took a single lesson.”

Confetti rained down upon the faithful.

When all was said and done, friends and lovers alike walked away dreamily into the bright, cold afternoon and said “fuck it, someone else can pick all this up.”
