"Christmas Lights" is a song by British rock band Coldplay, released on 1 December 2010 as a digital download single.[1] According to lead singer Chris Martin, it was written in December 2008.[2] The morning after he began work on the single, he performed a segment of the still in-progress song for Steve Kroft during an interview for 60 Minutes that aired on 8 February 2009.[2] The band described it as "a mid-tempo number in the key of G major". Yu Matsuoka Pol designed the cover art.[3] Media outlets including Cosmopolitan, The Indian Express and The Telegraph praised "Christmas Lights" as one of the best holiday songs of all time.
