Coldplay's Chris Martin is having a pretty funny press tour for his band's next album. After admitting that a lack of stadium audiences has hurt his self-esteem, he's now offered up a classic "how do you do, fellow kids" moment by revealing he wanted to name his band's new songs with emojis.

Speaking with Radio X [via NME], Martin said, "We're trying to have the first album with some tracks that have titles of just emojis. But it's proving tricky because of all the service providers, some say, 'You can't do that.'

"You literally have ten million songs in one box. Let us have a picture of an apple for a song or something like that."

Coldplay clearly haven't committed to the bit, though, because their new song is called "Higher Power" and not ⬆️⚡.
