Solo Duet | |
| Music of the Spheres (Music) / int_34213764 | comment |
Solo Duet: In-universe, the high-pitched voice in "Biutyful" is sung by an alien named Angel Moon/Angelina. The band jests that whoever sings Angel Moon's part is "highly confidential", but it's Chris's edited voice. This makes "Biutyful" a love duet between Chris Martin and himself. | |

Concept Album | |
| Music of the Spheres (Music) / int_34f6774c | comment |
Concept Album: Music of the Spheres takes place in a galaxy called "the Spheres" which consists of nine planets, two natural satellites, one star, and a nebula. Each planet represents a song on the album. The worldbuilding is expanded in the album's music videos — music is banned across the Spheres, but ambitious rebels defy the rule all while being hunted by the Silencers, the people who enforce the ban. | |

Concept Video | |
| Music of the Spheres (Music) / int_361d0d58 | comment |
Concept Video: "Higher Power" has Chris dancing on the Cyberpunk alien planet Kaotica, before obtaining Super-Speed and leaving the planet. "My Universe" tells the story of three bands living in The Spheres; Coldplay, BTS, and Supernova7. Music is forbidden across the Spheres and the bands are on different planets (Calypso, Floris, Supersolis), but they're united by DJ Lafrique on her Alien Radio ship through her "holoband". They come together to sing while being hunted by the Silencers. Near the end, the Silencers discover DJ Lafrique's ship, but she puts her ship into hyperdrive and escapes. Dance Party Ending ensues. | |

Getting Crap Past the Radar | |
| Music of the Spheres (Music) / int_4b86a724 | comment |
Getting Crap Past the Radar: "Higher Power" is a clean all-ages song. However, near the beginning of the music video, Chris walks in front of a sign written in Kaotican. If pausing to translate, it reads "SEXSHOP." The sign is more visible and doubles as a Freeze-Frame Bonus at 1:21. | |

| Music of the Spheres (Music) / int_6d7bc0f | comment |
Fake Band: Supernova7 in the "My Universe" music video, an alien band from the fictional planet Supersolis. "The Weirdos" are a fictional alien band that purportedly created the song "Biutyful" (sometimes credited as featuring both Coldplay and The Weirdos). The band is composed of puppetsnote Main singer Angel Moon, drummer Donk, guitarist Sparkman, keyboardist the Wizard, and manager Bruce Cakemix and appears in the music video for their song. The puppets, alongside Chris Martin, also did a live interview and performance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon to promote "Biutyful". | |

Cypher Language: Each planet on Music of the Spheres has an accompanying alien language. Notably, the "Higher Power" single had an alien Wingdinglish Cypher Language created for the album promotion called Kaotican, and it was used heavily during the early marketing as a puzzle for fans to crack. | |
