song. "Credo Elvem Etiam Vivere" is written across the top of the stage. In Latin this means "I Believe Elvis Yet Lives". This is likely connected to the three Elvises appearing in the video, which is, in turn, connected to the lyrics of the song. The video was directed by Mat Whitecross, a long-time friend of the band and director of several of Coldplay's other music videos, such as "Bigger Stronger", "Lovers in Japan", "Paradise", and subsequently "Adventure of a Lifetime", as well as the 2018 documentary Coldplay: A Head Full of Dreams. Just hours after the release of the video it was removed from YouTube after the IFPI claimed a breach of copyright, despite the video being on one of Coldplay's official channels. However, it was eventually uploaded once again. Cover versions Yellowcard recorded the song for the Fearless Records Punk Goes Christmas compilation in 2013. Kylie Minogue recorded the song for her 2016 album Kylie Christmas: Snow Queen Edition. Straight No Chaser covered the song for their 2016 album I'll Have Another...Christmas Album''.
