Coldplay Live 2012, released by EMI in 2012, is a concert film capturing the British band's electrifying performance during their Mylo Xyloto tour. Directed by Paul Dugdale, the movie showcases Coldplay's energy, passion, and musicianship in front of thousands of fans across the globe. The movie begins with a montage of behind-the-scenes footage, depicting the band's preparation for the tour, interviews, and rehearsals. The audience sees the band members discussing their music, brainstorming the stage design, and working with the lighting and sound engineers. These glimpses into the band's creative process give viewers insight into what goes into putting on a massive world tour.

The concert footage is intercut with backstage moments and candid shots of the band interacting with each other and their fans. We see Chris Martin, the lead singer, interacting with the audience, sometimes getting lost in the excitement and joy of the moment. We see Guy Berryman, the bassist, getting his hair styled backstage. We see Jon Buckland, the lead guitarist, strumming his guitar in the green room. We see Will Champion, the drummer, high-fiving fans as he walks to the stage. These moments help humanize the band and make the audience feel like they are a part of the show.

The concert itself is a staggering display of Coldplay's musicianship, showmanship, and artistic vision. The stage design is breathtaking, featuring a massive video screen, glowing bracelets worn by the audience, and a catwalk that extends into the crowd. The band members enter the stage to the opening notes of "Mylo Xyloto", and the audience erupts with excitement.

From the opening notes, the energy on stage is electric. Martin bounces around the stage, his arms flailing as he sings "Hurts Like Heaven". Buckland's guitar riffs are crisp and powerful, while Berryman's basslines anchor the songs. Champion's drumming is precise and dynamic, driving the songs forward. The band's chemistry is palpable, and they play off each other's energy throughout the show.

The setlist includes many of Coldplay's biggest hits, such as "In My Place", "Fix You", and "Viva La Vida". The audience sings along to every word, their voices blending with Martin's in a beautiful chorus. The band also performs songs from their latest album, Mylo Xyloto, including "Charlie Brown", "Paradise", and "Princess of China", which features a surprise appearance by Rihanna on the video screen.

The band's musical prowess is matched by their showmanship. Martin runs up and down the catwalk, balancing on the railing as he sings. During "Yellow", he jumps into the crowd and leads a singalong, while confetti rains down from the ceiling. During "Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall", the audience waves their bracelets in the air, creating a beautiful, colorful sea of light.

The concert is not without its quieter moments, though. During "The Scientist", the band plays a stripped-down version of the song, with Martin singing and Buckland accompanying him on acoustic guitar. The audience sings along softly, creating an intimate moment in the midst of the huge spectacle.

The concert culminates with an epic rendition of "Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall", with the band members jumping around the stage as the confetti cannons fire. They finish with "Fix You", a song that has become a Coldplay anthem, with the audience singing the final chorus long after the band has left the stage.

Coldplay Live 2012 is a testament to the band's talent, passion, and dedication. The concert captures the excitement and joy of a Coldplay show, and the band's genuine love for their fans. The movie is a must-see for Coldplay fans, as well as anyone who loves music and live performance.
