Chris Martin's Australia tour review: It's taken me about five years to get over this one thing'
Coldplay is no stranger to Australia, but during the band's last tour Down Under frontman Chris Martin read something that stuck with him.
The revelation came as entertainment presenter Brooke Boney sat down with the band to discuss their new single 'Higher Power'.
When Martin was asked if the band will visit again, he was quick to yes, adding he "loves playing Australia so much".

"It's taken me about five years to get over this one thing that happened the last time," Martin then shared.
"I don't read reviews very seldom, if ever.
"The last time we were in Australia, the only thing I saw, the only thing, was a guy who wrote a review of our Brisbane show and said that he wasn't even at the concert, he was in his garden.
"He said we ruined his night because he lived, like, a block away.
"I still feel terrible."
Coldplay have been turning out hit after hit for more than 20 years.
Martin thinks the band's longevity lies partly in the fact they don't care about the rules.
"Over the years, we've sort of gradually abandoned rules," he said.
"Now we just sort of follow wherever the muse wants to go.
"As weird and pretentious as that might sound, it is really true."
