Friday Featured Track

Coldplay 

The song that has been on my brain the most this week:

- “Death Will Never Conquer” by Coldplay, 2008 track from www.coldplay.com.

It’s less than a minute and a half long, but this piano-driven spiritual really sticks in your head. Drummer Will Champion, rather than frontman Chris Martin, sings on this track, and his deeper, not-quite-as-British voice suits the rootsy, Southern-gospel-inspired song.

When the hard soft rock band started touring this summer in support of its new album “Viva La Vida,” it also began offering “Death Will Never Conquer” on its Web site as a free download. It’s still available there if you haven’t checked it out yet.

The song isn’t included on “Viva La Vida,” but fits thematically. The band is performing a version of it in their concerts on the tour.

Coldplay’s Oklahoma City show was one of the dates that was postponed earlier this summer due to “production delays.” It has been rescheduled for Nov. 16 at the Ford Center. For more information, go to www.okfordcenter.com.
