One of the most entertaining things that we can do is to go to a live concert. When we have an appreciation for a particular band and the music that they play, there is something special about seeing it performed live in front of you. It allows them to display their talent and sometimes, you may even find that they are performing better in front of an audience of thousands of people than they do in the studio. It has to do with their level of talent, however, and sometimes you come to the realization that they aren’t as good as what you thought they were.
That wasn’t the case, however, for the members of an audience at Global Citizen Festival in Hamburg, Germany. They were on hand to watch Coldplay when they got a special treat with Shakira coming out to perform “A Sky Full of Stars” with them. It’s an amazing treat for everyone in the audience that evening but it’s also an interesting thing for the band members and Shakira to experience as well. Although they are all celebrities and superstars when it comes to music, they also have an appreciation for music and for the talent that other people have. It would be similar to you and I performing with our favorite band. But at the same time, they have the opportunity to entertain thousands with their skills.
The concert where they were playing was for Global Citizen, which is a social action platform that is trying to solve big challenges in the world. They do so through some rather unique means, including some large concerts, such as the one you see in the video below.
At times, these concerts and the collaboration between musical celebrities is a one-time event. It would be impossible to be at each of these events but, fortunately, we have the opportunity to watch it on video. That is what you can do below.
