Coldplay's bassist sings his own songs at karaoke

Coldplay's bassist Guy Berryman has revealed that he enjoys singing his band's own songs at karaoke. 

The musician was interviewed while in Australia recently and explained that although he doesn't like to sing at bars he's certainly no stranger to belting out his own tunes behind closed doors. On Coldplay's official blog, Roadie 42, the writer reveals:

"I watched as Guy was asked if he enjoyed Karaoke. I was a little confused when he replied enthusiastically in the affirmative." 

"'Funny' I thought, 'He’s the one that’s never there when it’s a karaoke night'. My suspicions of deception were confirmed when he was asked if he did karaoke at home in London. 'Almost every night' came the dubious reply."

"Finally, he was asked what kind of songs he likes to sing. 'Oh, just our  stuff' - the band duly collapse into giggles and the game is up."

The band headlined Fuji Rock on Friday, July 29 and you can watch them perform 'Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall' from the event here:
