The bells are certainly a-ringing for Coldplay‘s “Viva la Vida,” by which we mean the little bell icon on YouTube.
The video for Chris Martin and company’s 2008 smash hit has officially passed 1 billion YouTube views. It’s the eighth Coldplay video to reach the milestone, joining “Yellow,” “A Sky Full of Stars,” “The Scientist,” “Adventure of a Lifetime” and “Paradise,” plus the Beyoncé and Chainsmokers collaborations “Hymn for the Weekend” and “Something Just Like This,” respectively.
“Viva la Vida” was released as a single off Coldplay’s similarly titled fourth album, Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends. It gave Coldplay their first #1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100.
Coldplay is currently playing a run of shows at London’s Wembley Stadium in support of their latest album, 2024’s Moon Music.
