Watch: Coldplay cover Bruce Springsteen's classic tune and title song of the oscar winning movie Streets of Philadelphia
Wonder what the 'Boss' would make of this cover?
Playing at Philadelphia's Lincoln Financial Field, it only seemed fitting for the band to perform the legendary tune about the city.
Chris Martin remained faithful to the original version, performing the song accoustically.
The classic tune became a critical triumph in 1993 when it featured in the controversial film Philadelphia which dealt with HIV/AIDS. It cleaned out big in the awards, scooping an Academy Award for Best Original Song and four Grammy Awards.
