Their newest album just released at the end of 2019 called Everyday Life. They launched some music video and one of them was called “Cry Cry Cry” in February. The video was directed by Cory Bailey and by Chris Martin’s girlfriend a.k.a the actress of Fifty Shades, Dakota Johnson. She was also in the video and it was her debut with Coldplay’s music video. The video was beautifully choreographed by Celia Rowlson-Hall. To create a vintage feel, the video was shot in London in the Rivoli Ballroom, a 50’s-style ballrooms.
The video starts when the young couple enjoying their night at a dance hall and doing a beautiful dance to Coldplay as the band who is performing in the background. It is all about long-lasting love, when the couple working through many life’s obstacles side-by-side and the couple is still dancing until their elderly years. Even though it slows, but their love never fades and remains strong.
Check out their music video and lyrics below:
Cry Cry Cry
Cry, cry, cry, baby
Cry, cry, cry
In a book about the world
Called the luminous things
There are trees and flowers growing
While trees are bold as ever seen
When you cry, cry, cry, baby
When you cry, cry, cry
When you cry, cry, cry, baby
I’ll be by your side
Don’t want us to hurt each other
Or cause each other pain
Don’t want to feel what they don’t know
We’re in this together, baby
We’re as singing is to rain
So I never, never, ever let you go
When you cry, cry, cry, baby
When you cry, cry, cry
When you cry, cry, cry, baby
I’ll be by your side
Ooh, yeah
Ooh, yeah
For your miracles outnumbered by the stars out in the sky
