Coldplay's Chris Martin invited a 10-year-old fan on stage to perform a birthday song on Saturday, 23 September.

10-year-old Leo attended the band's Vancouver show at BC Place Stadium and may have had the most memorable night of all fans.

Footage shared on the band's social media shows Coldplay's lead singer sitting next to Leo at the piano, cobbling together a few spontaneous verses for a cheering crowd.

"You could go and see Jay-Z, you could go and see Taylor Swift. Or you could go and see Beyoncé, she's really God's best gift," sings Chris Martin.

OPINION - World War Three imminent? No, but the West is about to sell out Ukraine in a world-historic betrayal
As Vladimir Putin threatens nuclear escalation and Joe Biden promises to send more military equipment to Ukraine, there are warnings of “World War Three” on all sides. The present tensions are mostly a choreographed show of strength – in Washington and Moscow – to fill the time before Donald Trump’s inauguration on January 20. Having so often delayed the despatch of weapons or dithered over the use to which they might be put by Volodymyr Zelensky, Biden seeks to salvage some personal honour before he creeps from office and to give the Ukrainian president marginally more negotiating power when the talks begin.
