Chris Martin thanks Taylor Swift for leaving Germany during Coldplay show

Coldplay's frontman, Chris Martin, is expressing his gratitude to Taylor Swift.

As he started playing the band's song "Everglow" on the piano at their concert in Düsseldorf, Germany, on Saturday, July 20, Martin delivered a message for the "Fortnight" singer and dedicated the song to her.

“This is for Taylor Swift because she left town,” Martin said in a fan-captured video from the show. “This is for all of you who feel sad today because Taylor had to go to the next city. So we sing this love song, this heartbreak song, and send it to Taylor wherever she is today.”

Martin’s tribute follows Swift, 34, performing three shows just under an hour away in Gelsenkirchen. However, the pop star continues her Eras Tour in Germany with upcoming stops in Hamburg and Munich before moving on to the next country.

While Martin was expressing his gratitude to Swift, she was also sharing her own “thank you’s” on social media, celebrating the success and major milestone of her latest album.

“I also wanted to say to everyone who’s supported The Tortured Poets Department,” Swift wrote in an Instagram post on Saturday, July 20. “I am completely blown away by what you’ve done – it stayed at #1 for the first 12 weeks of its release and that’s never happened to an album of mine before, not even close!!”

Swift released TTPD in April during her Eras tour. The breakup album is believed to be inspired by her separations from Joe Alwyn and Matty Healy. The spring release added a new segment to the tour when the European leg began in May, with Swift incorporating songs from TTPD.
