A new version of Coldplayโs hit single, WE PRAY is out today worldwide. The collaboration with TWICE – which includes a Korean language verse from the K-pop superstars – is available to stream / download at coldplay.lnk.to/WEPRAYTWICE. It follows the previously-released Little Simz, TINI, Elyanna and Jasleen Royal versions of the song.
Said TWICE of the collaboration: โWe believe that WE PRAY is a song about overcoming hardships together and sharing a message of peace and hope. Weโre truly honored to collaborate with Coldplay on this release, and especially proud that each of us recorded our lines in Korean, allowing us to deliver our heartfelt emotions in our own language. Please show us lots of support and love!”
TWICE are the main support at Coldplayโs record-breaking stadium run in Seoul, where they also debuted their version of WE PRAY on stage with Coldplay during the bandโs opening night set on Wednesday night.
WE PRAY โ which has topped airplay and download charts around the world โ also features acclaimed UK rapper Little Simz, Nigerian Afrobeats superstar Burna Boy, Palestinian-Chilean R&B phenomenon Elyanna and chart-topping Argentine TINI.
The song is taken from Coldplayโs current album, Moon Music, which debuted at No. 1 on album charts around the world, including the US, where it became Coldplayโs fifth US No. 1 album (more than any other UK solo act or group this century) and in the UK, where it outsold the rest of the Top 40 combined.
In December, Coldplay won Top Rock Touring Artist at the Billboard Music Awards for the second consecutive year. Since kicking off in March 2022, the bandโs Music Of The Spheres World Tour has sold over 12 million tickets across Europe, North America, Latin America, Asia, Australia and New Zealand, making it the highest attended tour in history.
The band recently issued an update on the tourโs sustainability initiatives, revealing that, on a show-by-show comparison, the current tour has so far produced 59% less CO2e emissions than their previous stadium tour in 2016/17, exceeding their original target of a 50% reduction.
