Glastonbury 2016: Coldplay cover The Bee Gees' "Staying Alive" with Barry Gibb - VIDEO

Coldplay closed this 2016 edition of Glastonbury festival, performing a killer set in fron of an adoring audience. Among the highlights, there was a Bee Gees, moment: Chris Martin, indeed, at some point said that the band would be taking a request from Instagram. A video of Glastonbury founder Michael Eavis was shown, with Eavis explaining that he is often asked about who he would love to invite to the festival; he replied that "most of them are dead now" but one that he's always wanted is The Bee Gees because they have "lovely songs".

Then Martin told the crowd that he could do one better and have an actual Bee Gee on stage - then he introduced Barry Gibb. The two sang together "To Love Somebody" (acoustic), before launching into a full band performance of "Staying Alive".
