}} "Every Teardrop is a Waterfall" is a song by British alternative rock band Coldplay. The lead single from their fifth studio album, ''Mylo Xyloto'', it was released on 3 June 2011, as a digital download except in the United Kingdom where it was released 2 days later. The song was nominated for two Grammy Awards: Best Rock Performance and Best Rock Song.〔 It contains elements of the 1976 song "I Go to Rio" written by Peter Allen and Adrienne Anderson.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Coldplay – Every Teardop Is a Waterfall lyrics )〕 Debuting at number 29 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 in the United States, the song sold 85,000 copies in its first week, before climbing to its peak of number 14. It peaked at number 6 on the UK Singles Chart.〔acharts.us/song/63657〕 The song made its radio debut on BBC Radio 1, BBC Radio 2, BBC 6 Music, Absolute Radio, and Xfm. Coldplay first performed it live on 4 June at the Rock am Ring and Rock im Park festival in Nürnberg, Germany.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Coldplay: News – Roadie #42 – Blog #132 )〕 It was also played live at the Steve Jobs memorial/celebration-of-life event at Apple headquarters on 19 October 2011 in Cupertino, California, and at the opening of the MTV European Music Awards in Belfast, Northern Ireland on 6 November 2011. The song was used as the theme for the live-action film adaptation of Chūya Koyama's ''Uchū Kyōdai'' (''Space Brothers'') manga.〔http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2011-11-08/rock-band-coldplay-does-space-bros./uchu-kyodai-film-theme〕 ==Inspiration== When the song was first released on Coldplay's YouTube channel, it sparked many negative comments in the comment section, saying the song was plagiarised from "Ritmo de la noche" by 1990s-era German group Chocolate, or from Peter Allen's "I Go to Rio". However, upon release of the song, the line "Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall contains elements of I Go To Rio written by Peter Allen and Adrienne Anderson" was noted below the official lyrics to the song on Coldplay's website.〔 The Oracle (Coldplay's web site Question and Answer section) responded on 9 June 2011 to a question raised concerning its inspiration and collaboration: :I don't think people are quite understanding the song's composition. To clarify: Chris was inspired to write Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall after hearing some chords in a nightclub scene in Alejandro González Iñárritu's film Biutiful (2010). The chords in the film are part of a track that is based on I Go To Rio written by Peter Allen and Adrienne Anderson, released by Peter Allen in 1976. If you look at a clip on YouTube you'll hear the chords for yourself. As for other people asking if Ritmo de la Noche by The Sacados should also be credited the answer is "no". Firstly, that is a cover of Chocolate's song by the same name who sampled I Go To Rio. Secondly, they both came later in 1990 so hopefully they should have credited Peter & Adrienne. This is not the first time that Coldplay have used samples to write a new song, having used a Kraftwerk motif for their ''X&Y'' single "Talk". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
