\n\tForget looking at the stars, look at that view count! Coldplay<\/a>\u2018s \u201cYellow\u201d has become the band\u2019s latest music video to join the Billion Views Club.<\/p>\n

\n\tTheir beloved 2000 breakthrough hit \u2014 which they opened their 2016 Super Bowl Halftime Show<\/a> performance with \u2014 is the band\u2019s fifth music video to collect over 1 billion views on YouTube. Their other Billion Views Club clips include \u201cParadise,\u201d \u201cAdventure of a Lifetime,\u201d \u201cThe Scientist\u201d and the Beyonc\u00e9<\/a>-assisted \u201cHymn for the Weekend.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tWhile some of the band\u2019s other music videos are quite grandiose, \u201cYellow\u201d stands out with its minimalistic bent. The video consists of one continuous shot with no cuts, a stark difference from the CGI and multiple sets of the band\u2019s later music videos.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cYellow\u201d served as the Stateside lead single for Parachutes<\/em>, the band\u2019s landmark Grammy-winning debut studio album (it won best alternative music album at the 2002 awards show). On the Billboard Hot 100<\/a>, \u201cYellow\u201d climbed to No. 48, while Parachutes<\/em> reached No. 51. Obviously, the rockers have grown tremendously from those humble beginnings. The band currently boasts a pair of Hot 100 chart-toppers \u2014 2008\u2019s \u201cViva La Vida\u201d and 2021\u2019s \u201cMy Universe\u201d (with BTS<\/a>) \u2014 from 24 career entires. On the Billboard 200<\/a>, the band has notched four No. 1 albums from 14 career entries, including the multi-week chart-toppers Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends<\/em> (2008, two weeks), X&Y<\/em> (2005, three weeks) and Ghost Stories<\/em> (2014, two weeks).<\/p>\n

\n\tIn addition to its new Billion Views Club entry, the band also saw two of their catalog tracks enter YouTube\u2019s U.S. Top Songs on Shorts chart. A pair of trends vaulted \u201cViva La Vida\u201d (No. 3) and \u201cClocks\u201d (No. 37) to the ranking\u2019s top 40.<\/p>\n

\n\tLast year, Coldplay continued on their globe-trotting Music of the Spheres World Tour, which earned them top rock touring artist honors at the 2023 Billboard Music Awards<\/a>. According to Billboard <\/em>Boxscore, the Music of the Spheres World Tour was the biggest rock tour of 2023, and the second-biggest tour across all genres. Since its kick-off back in 2022, the tour has earned<\/a> $664.5 million and sold 6.7 million tickets. The band\u2019s latest trek is in support of Music of the Spheres<\/em>, their 2021 LP, which climbed to No. 4 on the Billboard 200 and earned a Grammy nod for album of the year.<\/p>\n
