"Viva La Vida" Weezer Cover Coldplay's

Rivers Cuomo made Coldplay's "Viva La Vida" significantly nerdier when Weezer coveredon wednesday it in New York City (Oct. 28) night. According to Stereogum, Cuomo, clad in a geeky track suit, performed the Grammy Award winning tune before the rest of Weezer joined him on stage for the gig at the P.C. Richard & Song Theatre. Cuomo clearly isn't that familiar with the song, since he had a music stand with the lyrics to "Viva La Vida" set up in front of him, but he made sure to do a lot of hand-waving a la Chris Martin. We aren't sure what Martin would think of Cuomo slapping his own butt to the beat, though. We're also not sure what's with the Tai Chi movements before the bridge of "waaaa-ooohhhhh ohhh ohhh"s at the end of the song, but anyway, it's still hilarious.Weezer's seventh studio album, Raditude, is out Tuesday (Nov. 3).

Martin said, "It spirits like we have been away for a long time. The four of us were feeling actually nervous about coming back home,"

Their Viva La Vida tour began in June 2008 and will wrap up on 19 September.
In June it was announced that rapper Jay-Z and Girls Aloud will both appear at Coldplay's final tour dates at Wembley Stadium.
Martin said the crowd of 50,000 had "given us a better response than we could possibly have asked for".
He added: "It is a bit like when Stefan Dennis went back to Neighbours he didn't know what the reaction would be.
The band closed the show with Life In Technicolour II, and gig goers were handed a free live album as they left the arena.
