What a track to finish off an album. This has last track vibes written all over it. What do you think?
One of my all-time favorites, and a fantastic way to end a fantastic album! And this cover certainly does it justice.
Thanks An, appreciate the kind words. Thanks for watching :-)
:D you're welcome!~
Where can I buy this album?
Definitely. One of my all time favourite songs. So emotionally powerful
Who else comes back to this once in a while, just to shed a tear? ;)
rick beato sent me here !!!!!!!!that piano intro gives this song lots of texture !!!!!
So do i. Just learned the basics of the song. But this is a whole other level, just perfect
Damn, this brings so many bittersweet memories. Back when coldplay meant something. Cheers
Yeah, agreed. I really enjoyed their first two albums, in particular Parachutes. The harmony on that album is well worth checking out for anyone who is interested in harmonic analysis.
Their first two albums were near perfect (in my opinion). The emotions they hit were raw and potent.
when they were good you mean? agreed
Totally agree!! I loved so much "Parachutes" and " AROBTYH" . Personally ,i think, Parachutes is one of the best debut album for a "rock" band ! And "X&Y "and "Viva la vida " were also a good works! but from then on, unfortunately, only very manistream and shoddy works !! Such a pity!! But anw ...for sure this is a wonderful piano cover! Greetings from Italy
They still do bro .
One of my favorites from Coldplay, easily. You captured the atmosphere of the song perfectly.
Thanks, Tristin. I really love this track. There are a few others from Parachutes that I'll probably cover at some stage.
OH GOD PLEASE YES
Josh Cohen you should do Postcards from Far Away. Great Coldplay piano
One of the best piano covers I’ve ever heard. Brought me to tears. Which seems to be a common reaction based on the rest of the comments.
🥲😉
As someone who holds Amsterdam very close to my heart, this is one of my favorite musical performances of all time.
I just can't explain the transition in 4:25. It's magic. It's Coldplay itself.

Muchas gracias 😀
The live version always blows my socks off on the way Johnny brings his guitar in
Wow, just wow. You just brought this 16 stone, inked, bearded and shaved headed bass player to tears.....beautiful playing bro, I salute you/
Haha hilarious. Glad you enjoyed the ride!
The arrangement is fantastic but your playing is out of this world. You are never in search of a gig. I enjoyed this from beginning to end. Nice work!
What the fuck. This is incredible, Josh.
+PhilipTT Thanks, Philip. Glad you enjoyed it.
I’ve been doing some thinking recently about this channel and a thought popped into my mind overnight. It’s been a really interesting journey sharing my love of the piano with everyone all over the world. It still trips me out that I spend an afternoon recording a track (it has to be the afternoon for those curious about the process, as the piano is lit by natural light - it’s best between 1pm - 4pm in the room that I’m recording in), sitting by myself in front of a piano in my music school, and that people from all over the world get to experience a very private moment of my creative process.
What I find particularly interesting though is when I listen back to these interpretations, there’s a pretty strong disconnect between playing/recording the tracks and hearing them back. Without a drop of ego, I personally enjoy listening to these tracks either late at night to help me fall asleep, occasionally in the morning when I wake up to find some more motivation about working on my Radiohead songbook, but my favourite time would definitely be when I’m travelling, especially in airports or on planes, and also on public transport. As there are a lot of returning subscribers and listeners on this channel, my question to you is this: Where and when do you listen to these tracks? What are you doing? Working? Studying? Travelling? Eating breakfast? Passing out? What time of day is it? What do you see? How does it make you feel?
I’d be very curious to hear your thoughts, so hit me up.
As always, thanks for supporting the channel and for incorporating this music into your lives. Man, the internet blows my mind sometimes x
Josh Cohen today is my birthday and im listening this lay in my bed :) thank you very much. Kind regards from Madrid, Spain
Hey Josh. I found out your channel this afternoon while working on some stuff, the video I found was Pink Floyd's The Great Gig in The Sky and it made me feel really into the song, like it was part of me. That was a unique experience, such as the one I'm having while I listen to your Coldplay's Amsterdam cover right now.
You rock!
Sitting in my living room on the Southern coast of Oregon on a sunny Saturday afternoon. I'll listen to it again on my way to work Monday morning. And probably many times after that. Your interpretation is faithful to the original Coldplay, in-so-far as it inspires the same feelings in me when I listen to it. Well done.
+Jason Jones Thanks so much, Jason. Nice to hear from you and thanks for sharing your experience!
Man, are the bestest in the world, I think. Is the same feeling that I have when I'm listening to the album version, keep going like this!
I've a suggestion for a new cover: Prospekt's March - Poppyfields by Coldplay.
This is really beautiful thank you! Sometimes I like to have the vocals stripped out of music so I can focus on the instrumental. Piano is my favourite, so I really appreciate this beautiful rendition.
Thanks for the kind words x
For some reason I overlooked the original version of this song (I guess it got overshadowed by my all time favorite: A Warning Sign). I suppose hearing a song played on a single instrument can reveal its soul and beauty. You did that very well 👏
Full of emotions.
Thanks!
The common thread in all your feedback is the phrase "reduced me to tears". There is good reason for this because I share the common feeling. Can't quite place what you achieve here but I listen to these for hours - so relaxing - marvelling at genuine talent.
Thanks, Ian. Glad you're enjoying the music ✌️
Took me 6 years to find this but it was worth it, thanks for the beautiful music.
Most welcome x
what a journey. thank you
You're welcome. Thanks very much for watching and supporting the channel! 😀
You bring a whole new light to each song. It takes me back. It really does. It's as if I'm falling in love all over again. It's so truely beautiful. It's as if I'm hearing it for the first time. I'm sure Cold play and radiohead would all love what you brought to each one of their pieces. Keep doing it!
Thanks for your support, Tess ✌️
That's a beautiful piano
Thanks, Sam!
I didn't really like Coldplay in the past. Hearing this changed my mind though. I realized I'd judged them too harshly on one or two songs that weren't to my liking and that there were some gems in their catalogue like this. Thank you for changing my mind.
I feel their newer songs don’t do justice to their past ones. I hate to admit that Coldplay got drawn into the pop hype especially in some of their later songs that don’t capture the melancholic feeling like these ones do.
Loved this vibe of Coldplay. Very well played
Thank you so much. Glad you enjoyed it. One of my favourite tracks from that record 😀
Ningún error, la mejor interpretación de ésta canción que encontré en UA-cam. Perfecto! Ganaste un sub
Beautiful work.. brought me to tears :' )
Thanks, Anna. Glad you found it moving :-)
You have made a guitarist wants to learn to play the piano!
+Katagiri Kenichi Awesome! Give it a try :)
I’ve got to tell you Josh, I could literally listen to your beautiful interpretations anytime, anywhere, but I find myself listening to them when I’ve got a lot on my mind. Your music always brings a tear to my eye. I get completely overwhelmed by its flawless beauty. I can’t thank you enough for sharing your beautiful gift with us.
Thanks very much for the kind words. Appreciate it ✌️
this is so beautiful thank you so much for making this it brings up the same emotions as the song so gorgeous
Come on, oh my star is fading
And I swerve out of control
If I, if I'd only waited
I'd not be stuck here in this hole
Come here, oh my star is fading
And I swerve out of control
And I swear, I waited and waited
I've got to get out of this hole
But time is on your side, its on your side, now
Not pushing you down, and all around
It's no cause for concern
Come on, oh my star is fading
And I see no chance of release
And I know I'm dead on the surface
But I am screaming underneath
And time is on your side, its on your side, now
Not pushing you down, and all around
No it's no cause for concern
Stuck on the end of this ball and chain
And I'm on my way back down again
Stood on the edge, tied to the noose
Sick to the stomach
You can say what you mean
But it won't change a thing
I'm sick of the secrets
Stood on the edge, tied to the noose
And you came along and you cut me loose
You came along and you cut me loose
You came along and you cut me loose
You capture the spirit of this song so well. As good as the original in that it conveys the same emotions, but what I like about it is that the original was years ago, I was a younger person then, and so now to hear the same song but in a newer version, I can hear the words myself, and see it with a different lens. Thanks for sharing your gift Josh.
is... perfect
Thanks Jonathan. It's one of my favourite Coldplay tunes.
Thanks to you for such a good performance, I hope to have that level someday at the piano. Greetings from Venezuela.
Just keep playing, it's only a matter of time :-)
thanks¡
Una corda pedal suits this perfectly. Awesome and detailed arrangement and technique!
usually i listen to your tracks on my way to school, just to have a moment of breathe(writting this while accually listening to "breathe") and get my mind ready for the day.
Awesome
Wow just outstanding. Most amazing piano cover I've seen
Thanks, Oliver. Glad you enjoyed it!
Awesome piano version, definitely the best one out there. Favorite Coldplay song and even my favorite all time song!
It's a killer track. Thanks so much for watching! 😄
This is amazing! Parachutes and A Rush of Blood to the Head are definitely my favorite Coldplay albums.
Beautiful
Thanks :-)
My dad used to listen to a lot of Coldplay when i was little, so I’m familiar with most of their old music, but I don’t listen to it anymore. I couldn’t put a sound to the name when I was going through your channel, so i listened to the original. It’s now my favourite Coldplay song by far! I love your cover; it’s beautiful. I’m gonna go listen to your covers of bands I haven’t heard of now!
Thanks, Becky. There are some great Coldplay tracks from their first two albums. I'll probably cover a track off Parachutes shortly. Thanks for watching! 😄
La mejor interpretación que escuché en piano de ésta bella canción, fiel y perfecta a la original y además el piano suena de ensueño... Felicitaciones!
I love this Coldplay had some great music then and still this song it's not that known I live it it's not overrated at all ✨💖👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
In all honesty, Yulie, I don't really listen to a lot of Coldplay these days. Their first two albums were great, but this is one of my favourite tracks from A Rush of Blood to the Head. I have a couple others from their earlier albums that I'll probably cover at some stage. Glad you enjoyed it! 😀
look like you are more coldplay , than coldplay themselves , nowdays
Great Video btw
Haha thanks very much. I did enjoy the old Coldplay before they became a stadium rock band.
Amazing
Genius
Thanks for watching, Federico! 😃
I've played and sung this song at at Open Mic once, it's one of my favorite Coldplay songs. (I usually don't play the melody line then since it's in the voice.) I believe it's the same official arrangement as you have from Coldplay, but I just wish it sounded as gorgeous as when you play it. Excellent job! And a beautiful piano!
Hey Bob, it's such a beautiful piece and such a great way to finish off the album. Haven't really listened to much Coldplay since this album, but there are some really tasty tunes off their first couple of records. Thanks for the kind words. Cheers, Josh :-)
I closed my eyes for a moment listening to this and I shivered
Dude, this is so perfect!
King regards from Brazil!
Absolutely freaking amazing. Beautiful sound indeed. Thank you.
You're welcome, Hannes. Thanks for watching/listening 😄
Yessss I love this melody
It's my favourite track of this record, for sure.
One of my favourite Coldplay songs :)
+janithemani Me too! What a way to finish an album - it totally has a last track vibe.
Im crying this is so beautiful
Due to popular demand, I've decided to create a Subreddit at www.reddit.com/r/joshcohenmusic to prioritise upcoming videos. If you'd like to submit your requests, it'll definitely point me in the right direction for future clips. Thanks, Josh :-)
Gorgeous.... I wanna be the sound that brings those keys!
Great bit of piano playing how anybody can give thumbs down to this is a mystery.
Such a beautiful piece of music
One of my favourite Coldplay songs. I might include Trouble in the mix soon.
Yes please!, I would love to hear you play it
Just waiting to get my piano tuned, I can bang it out in one take I'd say. Played it many times before.
That was fantastic cover,my life seemed to go back 20 years ago ❤️
Good job broo,"coldplay Amsterdam"
very lovely cover!! beautifully executed and really showed the essence of this wonderful song
I wasn't quite reduced to tears like everyone else here, but got a good dosage of goosebumps! Absolute masterpiece, played by a prodigy!
I started singing where the original song starts! xd
gorgeous!
incredible cover!
Thanks! 😄
My all time favorite song from Coldplay. What a cover. Damn. Cheers from Portugal. Subscribed.
Me hace llorar
You're blessed with a huge talent, Josh. Thank you for sharing! I love what you do.
Thanks for the support!
I lost myself for a while there
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching, Josh :-)
*for a minute there, I lost myself
@@daniilromanenko3677 :)
Nice one, the visuals also brilliant. thanx for sharing
Nice job Josh! Sounds good coming out of that Kawai
Wow, I don't know how I barely stumbled across this. Loved the cover! I'm always looking a piano covers and this one was awesome:)
+Nick_Striker21 Thanks Nick! It's one of my favourite Coldplay tunes. Might do one from Parachutes in the near future.
Beautiful song. Reminds me of my brother playing this as a kid on our family piano growing up . Love. Coldplay so much
This is Beautiful especially for someone like myself that knows all the lyrics.
This is fantastic!! Keep up the good work
Thanks very much 😃
❤️
Lovely, Josh..thank you 🙏🏻
מדהים. טוב מהמקורי
This is beautiful brother! Thanks for sharing. Bless you child;)
One of Coldplay's lesser known but very beautiful songs. Sir I like your style :)
I have such major goosebumps. I think I’m in love with you.
This is beyond beautiful ♥️
Thank you for this
Man I just found this but this was straight beautiful. Such an amazing song and you made it even better. Gives a little light to life ❤️
thank you
Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us, all of your covers are extremely beautiful! ❤ Coldplay is my favourite band and it'd be really nice if you could play more from them (maybe another one from the second album). Anyway... I'm just really happy I found your channel!
Thanks for the kind words, Gabi. I'll be most likely uploading some new Coldplay tracks from Parachutes to start off with. Thanks for watching! 😄
Me gusta como tocas el piano
Do you also have a sheet of this beautifull piece on musicnotes or will you make one? I think I will buy your Radioheadbook soon, the pieces are really beautifull. My favorite is weird fishes, what a great emotional tune is this and really great emotional playing by you. Your dynamics are so good.
Just discovered your channel. Great work! I think I’m going to spend the next little while watching your videos! Cheers.
I really enjoyed your videos too, especially Meat and You: Partners in Freedom.
Que preciosa la canción con el piano
Beautiful playing 🌠👍
I like this song
I love it
This is my first ever comment in youtube, thank you for the amazing piano cover, i am listening to this every morning; can i have The Scientist pls
I've really been enjoying all your piano covers, please keep it up!
Thanks Tiffany, glad that you're enjoying them! :-)
Sounds really incredible, ty for your videos.
You're most welcome. Thanks for watching!
You certainly move and entertain. ...I listen in the evening/night time...big stress buster...especially the Floyd..I grew up on that..Breathe in the air, don't be afraid to care. Thank you sir, I'm inspired to pick up piano again....does Mazzy Star lend itself to piano interpretation? Something off "So tonight that I might see"....
This is the second video of your channel i have watched so far,the first one is daydreaming of radiohead. Both are amazing and relaxing to hear. These songs may be simple to play but they are the main reason makes me start playing piano. And you covered those songs so well .Definitely you will go further in the future,you got my subcribe :D
Thanks for the kind words Lien and glad that you've found some inspiration to start playing piano. Good luck! Josh :-)
Theres nothing simple about these songs, esp these amazing arrangements.
+Tiberius Fezz Thanks again for watching :-)
More amazingness.
+Tiberius Fezz Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching, Josh :-)
Dear Josh Cohen, Thank you so much for this beautiful cover! I would like to learn to play it myself, so do you have sheet music available of this masterpiece?
Did you get a responce ?
As i want to learn it aswell
I first saw your Pink Floyd Breathe Cover and i was like "This guy knows how to play the piano and not only that but the arrangements of the songs are the best i've ever heard on the piano here on UA-cam. And now i was just looking at your uploaded videos and i noticed this, and i couldn't believe that you did this song! I play it all the time on the piano, it's one of my favorite songs. :D You're amazing! :D Subbed! :) (You deserve more views!)
I really resonate with their first two albums. Haven't listened to any of their stuff beyond those records, but would love to cover a track from Parachutes. Still deciding which one..
I absolutely agree! Those are the best of their albums. If i could choose one song it would be Trouble or Everything's not lost... Or Don't Panic :D It's hard to choose :) Keep up the good work! :D
Lovely!! 😘I wish I can play as good as u one day
Q grande
I think you need more subscribers! Keep up great work!
+SupergregNr1 Thanks for checking us out :-)
Great cover bro, keep making videos!!!
Thanks for watching Edward. Glad you enjoyed it. Cheers, Josh :-)
