Selena Gomez Joins Coldplay For Surprise ‘Let Somebody Go’ Live Performance
Written by djfrosty on October 2, 2023
Selena Gomez surprised Coldplay fans at the band’s stadium gig at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, CA on Sunday night (Oct. 1) when she joined the group for a run through their 2021 collaboration, “Let Somebody Go.”
“Thank you @coldplay @hermusicofficial for an amazing night,” Gomez wrote on in her Instagram Story, which featured other highlights from the run through the song that appeared on Coldplay’s ninth studio album, Music of the Spheres.
In footage of the moment on her Story, Gomez wandered out to the satellite stage to join singer Chris Martin at his electric piano, doubling his vocals as they sang, “All the storms we weathered, everything that we went through/ Now, without you, what on earth am I to do?/ When I called the mathematicians and I asked them to explain/ They said, ‘Love is only equal to the pain’,” joined halfway through by opening act H.E.R., who added harmonies while ripping off an electric guitar solo.
Gomez had previously joined Coldplay for the TV debut of the song on the Late Late Show with James Corden in Oct. 2021, shortly after the album’s release. The singer recently released her summer jam “Single Soon,” a song she told fans in an Instagram post was “a playful anthem about being comfortable in your own skin and loving your own company… and it’s also really fun to dance to!”; the track has so far peaked at No. 19 on the Billboard Hot 100.
