Coldplays New Album Will Sample Obama Singing Amazing Grace
Coldplay's latest album will have a special guest  a very special one President Barack Obama. Coldplay frontman Chris Martin told The Sun that the album, A Head Full of Dreams, will "have a tiny clip of the President singing Amazing Grace' at that church." He's referring to when Obama spoke at the funeral of Reverend Clementa Pinckney  a South Carolina pastor and state senator who was murdered at Charleston's Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in June  and ended his eulogy by singing the hymn. Martin said they're including a snippet "because of the historical significance of what he did and also that that song being about, I'm lost but now I'm found.'" Hear the track when A Head Full of Dreams comes out Dec. 4, and watch Obama's rendition of "Amazing Grace" below.
