Music video: Coldplay – Fix You
“Fix You” is a song by British alternative rock band Coldplay. It was written by all four members of the band for their third album, X&Y. The track is built around an organ accompanied by slow tempo drums and vocals. Blythe Danner, the mother of Gwyneth Paltrow and mother-in-law of Chris Martin, stated in an interview in May 2012 that Chris Martin ‘wrote the song Fix You for Gwyneth when her father died and I weep every time I hear it’.
“Desert Rose” is a single by Sting from his album Brand New Day (1999). The song is noted for Sting’s duet performance with Algerian raï singer Cheb Mami, creating a distinct world music feel to the song. It also has a popular music video featuring Sting taking a trip through the Mojave Desert in a Jaguar S-Type and then going to a nightclub in Las Vegas, Nevada to perform the song with Cheb Mami. After shooting the video, Sting’s manager Miles Copeland III approached a music licensing maven, Lloyd Simon, to work with Jaguar on a collaboration, and the auto company featured the video in their prominent television advertisements during the year 2000.
“My Immortal” is a song by American rock band Evanescence from their debut studio album Fallen (2003). The song was entirely written by guitarist Ben Moody, with the exception of the bridge, which was later written by lead singer Amy Lee, and it was produced by Dave Fortman. The single version of the song was called “band version” because of the additional band performing the bridge and final chorus of the song. “My Immortal” is a piano rock song written in slow and free tempo. Moody was inspired to write it after the death of his grandfather. Lyrically, it talks about “a spirit staying with you after its death and haunting you until you actually wish that the spirit were gone because it won’t leave you alone.
