The story behind the song

"In My Place" explores the feeling of finding your position in the world. It's a song that almost didn't make it onto Coldplay's second album, A Rush of Blood to the Head, having been set aside after their debut. But the band felt it needed to be recorded, built around its thumping drums and chiming guitars, for its profound lyrical depth. Playing it evokes a sense of belonging and self-discovery.
