Coldplay are facing pressure to switch the lyrics to their song ‘Yellow’ to honour Luton Town FC at an upcoming live show.The Chris Martin-fronted band are set to headline Radio 1’s Big Weekend in May, and will undoubtedly be breaking out fan favourites including ‘Clocks’, ‘The Scientist’, ‘Sky Full Of Stars’ and more.However, there is one song in particular that fans are wanting to hear in a different way than usual, particularly as the show will be held in Luton.In honour of Luton Town FC, some fans are calling on the band to switch up the lyrics to one of their biggest hits, and change the lyrics to ‘Orange’ – the colour that the team wear – as opposed to the original ‘Yellow’, which is worn by Watford, who are based just 17 miles down the M1.As highlighted by BBC, some residents in the area are putting pressure on the band to switch up the lyrics, just for one night, to fit in with their local football rivalry."And it was called… Orange?"
