Coldplay dedicate concert to Tina Turner and sing acoustic version of ″Proud Mary″

Coldplay made a dedication on Wednesday to singer Tina Turner during a concert in Barcelona, ​​Spain. The artist died at the age of 83 in Switzerland.

The news of Tina Turner’s death was released about an hour before Coldplay took the stage at the Olympic Stadium in Barcelona, ​​​​where the first 50,000 people of the 200,000 who will attend their concerts in that venue until Sunday were waiting for them.

During the concert, while Chris Martin sang “The Scientist” on the piano, the Coldplay frontman stopped the music, saying: “This entire show is dedicated to the beautiful Tina Turner”.

Later, Coldplay even improvised an acoustic version of “Proud Mary”, one of Tina Turner’s biggest hits.

Tina Turner died at her home in Switzerland on Wednesday after a prolonged illness. She was 83 years old. Her biggest hits include “What’s Love Got To Do With It”, “Private Dancer” and “The Best”. Known as the Queen of Rock ‘n’ Roll, she has sold over 180 million albums and won 12 Grammys. In recent years, Tina Turner has suffered from several health problems, having been diagnosed with intestinal cancer in 2016 and underwent a kidney transplant in 2017. Her husband donated a kidney to her when the artist discovered that she was suffering from kidney failure.
