Coldplay won some awards at the Grammys last night - about as many as the amount of apologies they gave to Sir Paul McCartney.
The band took to the stage to accept the award for Song of the Year dressed in brightly-coloured military-style jackets reminiscent of those worn on the cover of the Sgt. Pepper's album.
As they held up the gong for their song 'Viva la Vida', drummer Will Champion said, "First of all I would like to say thank you and sorry to Sir. Paul McCartney for blatantly recycling the Sgt. Peppers outfits. Sorry boss."
They later namechecked the former Beatles star again as they scooped their second Grammy for 'Rock Album of the Year'.
Frontman Chris Martin said: "We are not, of course, the heaviest of rock bands as you may have noticed. We are more the limestone kind of rock, a little softer but just as charming.
"Thank you so much, we have never had so many Grammys in our lives, obviously Paul (McCartney) has.
Don't upset Sir Paul boys. Just keep quiet next time. More singing, less talking.
