Chris Martin says the new Coldplay album was influenced by ghosts.

The 31-year-old frontman had a spooky encounter while recording their fourth LP.
He said: “I have had one experience in Wales. I woke up and there was this
sort of hot air moving around the end of the bed. And it wasn’t Jonny
Buckland breaking wind!”
Chris – who is married to Hollywood beauty Gwyneth Paltrow – has a
fascination with the supernatural and the part they play in people’s
destiny.
He added to Clash magazine: “Ghosts are supposed to be people who haven’t
found their final place, right? And we just thought it would be funny to
spend your whole life trying to get to heaven and then you get to the gates
and they say, ‘You didn’t quite make it.’
“And that kept popping up in my head, the idea of not being on the guest
list.”
