When translated, Martin’s pantun reads:
Going to the shop to buy vegetables,
Cooking tom yum as asked by mother,
Coldplay is now in Kuala Lumpur,
Treating you to your favourite song
The bit won over the crowd who have called it “one of their favourite moments” from the show. And the love appears to be mutual.
Before reciting the pantun, Martin told the Malaysian crowd that he “wished (Coldplay) came to Malaysia sooner” as they were “one of the best audiences in the world”.
Speaking in Malay, Martin added: “We’re so happy to be here. Let’s healing together.”
Coldplay’s Kuala Lumpur concert marked their final one for the year. They will be back on the road in January 2024 which will see them delighting audiences in the Phillipines and of course, Singapore.
