Chris Martin's Lost Bond Theme Demo Up For Auction

An acoustic demo recording of a song titled "The World Is Not Enough," which Coldplay's Chris Martin reportedly intended for the 1999 James Bond film of the same name, is now up for auction. This lost track is being offered alongside other formative recordings from the band's earliest years. The auction is being conducted by Wax Poetics, featuring an archive of material from producer Chris Allison.

These recordings predate Coldplay's second EP, "The Blue Room," which was released in October 1999 and also produced by Allison. The collection provides a rare glimpse into the band's initial creative process and sound development before their widespread commercial success. The inclusion of a potential James Bond theme highlights the band's early ambitions and songwriting scope.

Chris Allison, the British producer, is making his archive available for this sale. His work with Coldplay during their formative stages was crucial in shaping their early output. The auction offers a unique opportunity for collectors and fans to acquire historically significant pieces of Coldplay's musical journey, including unheard material that sheds light on their path to becoming a global phenomenon.
