"Fix You" is a song by British rock band Coldplay. It was written by all four members of the band for their third studio album, X&Y (2005). It was released on 5 September 2005 as the second single from X&Y and reached number 4 on the UK Singles Chart. The song reached number 18 in the United States Billboard Hot Modern Rock Tracks. Promo singles were released for the UK and US.

The song is a sobering meditation on grief in the face of the death of a loved one; frontman Chris Martin developed the song to comfort his then-wife, actress Gwyneth Paltrow, after her father Bruce Paltrow died. The anthemic track builds around an organ accompanied by piano and acoustic guitar, and develops into a spirited second half with group vocals, drums, and strings. The hopeful message of the song, and its two-part arrangement, were critically acclaimed. The power ballad[4] has been performed at memorials such as by Coldplay at the One Love Manchester benefit concert in 2017. In September 2021, the song was ranked number 392 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the "500 Greatest Songs of All Time".

Background

Coldplay lead singer Chris Martin met American actress Gwyneth Paltrow in late October 2002, three weeks after the death of her father, television director Bruce Paltrow. As their relationship grew closer, Martin and Paltrow would listen to Coldplay's album Parachutes, especially the uplifting song "Everything's Not Lost," to help her process the loss of her father. Martin and Paltrow married in December 2003.[5]

"Fix You" was inspired by Martin's wish to continue helping Paltrow get through her grief. He wanted to base the song on a church organ; instead, he powered up a keyboard given to Paltrow by her father, the instrument sitting unused in their house, to find "it had these amazing sounds on it."[6] Martin said that the song's composition is influenced by English alternative rock band Elbow's 2003 anthem "Grace Under Pressure".[7][8][9] In 2005, he described "Fix You" as "probably the most important song we've ever written".[10] He wrote four other songs for or about Paltrow: "Moses" (2003), "Swallowed in the Sea" (2005), "Magic" and "Another's Arms" (2014).[11]

All of Coldplay helped in writing the song. During a track-by-track analysis, bassist Guy Berryman observed that "Fix You" takes "a bit of inspiration" from "Many Rivers to Cross" by Jimmy Cliff (1969). Berryman added, "It becomes its own thing, kind of like points of inspiration that kind of lead you down certain paths. Whenever you want to write a song like someone else, it ultimately ends up sounding like something different anyway."[12]

Arrangement

The song features an organ and piano in the key of E major.[13] Its main chord progression is E–Gm–Cm7–B. The time signature is 4
4
and the tempo is 69 beats per minute. Chris Martin's vocals on the track ranges from the low note of B2 to the high note of B4.[14] It begins as a hushed electric organ ballad, with Martin's falsetto.[15] The song then builds in acoustic guitar and piano, accompanied by the sound of string instruments during the beginning choruses. The melody shifts to a plaintive three-note guitar line, ringing through a rhythmic upbeat drum tempo. The song transitions to its bridge, which expands into a blend of piano, electric and bass guitar, drums, and a singalong chorus with an anthemic feel. Electronic sounds from a synthesiser join during the second half of the bridge.[16] The song ends with the beginning chorus, with slow, melancholic piano notes being played in the background.

The message that Martin sings throughout, is of encouragement: "Lights will guide you home / And ignite your bones / And I will try to fix you."[17][18][19] Michele Hatty of USA Weekend reported that Martin sings about recovering from grief in the song.[20] Travis Gass of the Bangor Daily News wrote that Martin offers his sympathies for the downtrodden, with "When you love someone but it goes to waste / Could it be worse?".[21]

Release

Capitol promoted "Fix You" to US triple A and alternative radio on 15 August 2005.[22] In the United Kingdom, Parlophone released "Fix You" on 5 September as the second single from X&Y.[23][24] The single was pressed with two B-sides: "The World Turned Upside Down" and "Pour Me".[23][25] In Australia, the song was issued as a CD single on 12 September 2005.[26] Two days later, the band released the Fix You EP in the iTunes Store.[23] In response to Hurricane Katrina, all of the sales went to the American Red Cross Hurricane 2005 Relief and the National Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences' MusiCares Hurricane Relief Fund.[23] Promotional singles were released in the UK and US.[23]

The track peaked at number four in the UK Singles Chart on 17 September 2005.[27] As of 30 July 2011, the song had spent 122 weeks on that chart.[28] It peaked at number 59 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number 18 on the Billboard Hot Modern Rock Tracks.[29] The song also charted on the Billboard Pop 100 and Hot Digital Songs.[29] The single appeared in Australia's Singles Chart in the number 4 position on 18 September 2005,[30] after retiring in the 58 spot.[30] It also appeared at number 8 on the Irish Singles Chart and spent seven consecutive weeks on the chart.[31] On 14 November 2010, the song re-entered the Australian singles chart at number 37.[32]

In 2005, Coldplay performed the song on Saturday Night Live and the Live 8 event in July.[33] It has become the anthem for the event.[23]

In 2009, the song appeared on Coldplay's live album LeftRightLeftRightLeft.[34]

On 19 October 2011, following Apple CEO Steve Jobs' death, a private memorial service was held and streamed for Apple employees during which the band played the song. Steve Jobs was a longtime fan of Coldplay.[35] Chris Martin remarked that when Jobs first heard their breakthrough track "Yellow" ten years earlier, he didn't think the band would "make it".[36] On 4 June 2017, Coldplay performed "Fix You" at the One Love Manchester benefit concert for the victims of the Manchester Arena bombing.[37]

Critical reception

Reviews

The song received widespread acclaim from music critics. Rolling Stone's Kelefa Sanneh wrote in his review for X&Y that "One of the best is 'Fix You', an unabashedly sentimental song where Martin delivers words of encouragement in a gentle falsetto [...] Proving once more that no band can deliver a stately rock ballad like this one."[17] Paul McNamee of NME said "It's a wonderful song that shifts from simple stark piano and voice to a ringing, clattering burst of intent and proto-prog four-part harmony."[38] Meanwhile, Adrien Begrand from PopMatters named "Fix You" the best ballad from X&Y.[39] Alexis Petridis of The Guardian praised it as "beautifully turned [...] The melody of "Fix You" invokes that weird sense of false memory whereby a new song feels instantly familiar".[40] Others were more muted towards the track: Slant Magazine's Jonathan Keefe felt it timid,[41] while Pitchfork reviewer Joe Tangari dismissed it as an "AOR ballad".[42] In 2024, PPL ranked "Fix You" as Coldplay's eighth-most played song across radio and television in the United Kingdom.[43]

Music video

The music video for "Fix You" was directed by Sophie Muller, who had previously worked with the band for their 2002 video "In My Place".[58] The video was filmed at the end of two concerts on 4 and 5 July 2005 at the Reebok Stadium in Bolton, England, which were the band's first ever stadium performances.[59][60] The concert goers doubled as extras for the video shoot, which required two takes on each day to complete.[23][61]

In the first half of the video, Martin wanders the streets of London starting at Tooley Street under London Bridge station, while the slogan "Make Trade Fair" is projected onto the Royal National Theatre, using the same Baudot code colour scheme on the cover of X&Y. The tunnels that Martin is seen wandering within are located both in and around King's Cross and St Pancras railway stations, with the filming for the video taking place during the time of the redevelopment and expansion of the latter. Martin is then seen walking across Waterloo Bridge, which crosses the River Thames, connecting the South Bank with The Strand. As soon as the electric guitar kicks in, Martin's walk turns into a run as he darts through streets of London, until very quickly reaching the side of the stage at the Reebok Stadium in Bolton, where he joins the rest of the band for the song's finale. The audience sings along with the song's final refrain, and at the end of the video, Martin thanks them for their support and wishes them goodnight.

The video debuted on 1 August 2005.[62] It was nominated at the 15th annual Music Video Production Association Awards in the category of Adult Contemporary.[62] After its release, the music video was repurposed as a tribute to the victims of the 7 July 2005 London bombings,[23] although it was filmed before they occurred.[63]

Retrieved 1 April 2024. The canadiens.com crew asked Bell Centre DJ Vincent Aubry (aka DJ Wordy Word) to "Fix You" a playlist of the tracks currently spinning most during home games, and the arena's music man delivered. If you caught that reference, then you'll recognize a lot of the numbers on DJ Vinnie's 24-song playlist of Canadiens standards. And if you've ever wondered what that song you heard on game night was, then you've likewise come to the right place. Naturally, Coldplay's "Fix You" kicks things off, just like a Habs home contest, followed by AC/DC's aptly named "Are You Ready" which leads the players to puck drop.
