Coldplay brought the curtain down on a summer of Olympic and Paralympic sport in London last night (September 9th) with a 16-song set which soundtracked the Paralympic Games’ closing ceremony.
Reports last week of the British band being joined by Rihanna and Jay-Z during the special concert were proved correct, with the former collaborating again on the track ‘Princess Of China‘, while the latter made an appearance for a second run through on the night of Coldplay’s 2012 number one single ‘Paradise‘. In addition, all three acts were together onstage for ‘Run This Town‘.
Team GB’s successful athletes are due to be celebrated further today with a open-top parade through the streets of London.
