Sometimes things happen that leave us completely floored, and it’s fair to say Londoners were totally gobsmacked when a man started singing in the street with a busker. In recent days, footage of the epic moment has gone viral after it was caught on camera in London, and it’s left so many people in awe.
When a street performer started singing a pretty well-known song, a man decided to join him, but it took people a while to realise who he was. Little did they know, it was actually a world famous singer, and they ended up having somewhat of a free concert in the street, totally leaving passers-by in amazement.
It’s not the first time such an incident has taken people by surprise either. Earlier this month, people were also stunned when they noticed who was walking around Trafalgar Square.
Over a clip of the moment, Secret London wrote: “POV: You’re listening to a street singer singing Viva La Vida, and Chris Martin joins the performance, but no one notices until the end and everyone was in shock.”
In the video, it’s clear to see that Coldplay vocalist, Chris Martin, decided to get up to help the busker perform. Chris, 49, put on an epic performance as he stunned people in the street.
The footage got a lot of people talking, and it’s been viewed over 32,000 times. Many were left totally starstruck.
One said: “One of the many reasons why I love London so much.” Another added: “EPIC.”
A third replied: “It was an amazing experience. Unbelievable.”
Meanwhile, a fourth commented: “How can they not notice? Surely they thought they were singing over the original song then.
“I mean, Chris Martin’s voice is like no other. I wish I was there.”
One more also responded: “I wouldn’t have mistaken his voice. I’d be running across the square like whaaaaat???”
Many confessed they thought the moment was brilliant, with some stating they’d also met Chris and he seems lovely. Others also claimed moments like this is what makes London so great.
It’s understandable why so many people were left taken aback. After all, Coldplay have been creating music for around 30 years, and the band has so many hits to their name.
Even so, you don’t expect Chris Martin to suddenly join you for a casual performance. It’s evident why so many people were shocked.
