"My Universe" is a song recorded by British rock band Coldplay and South Korean pop group BTS.

[4] It was released on 24 September 2021, through Parlophone and Atlantic Records, as the second official single from Music of the Spheres, Coldplay's ninth studio album.

The official music video, directed by Dave Meyers, was released on 30 September 2021 and features both groups performing on different futuristic planets (Floris, Calypso, and Supersolis) alongside a fictional band named "Supernova 7" via the "Holoband" technology developed by DJ Lafrique, set in an era where music is banned around the universe.

[14] However, speculations about a collaboration between the two groups had already started circulating in February 2021, after BTS covered their 2005 hit song "Fix You" on MTV Unplugged.

[15] On 26 September, the Inside My Universe making-of documentary of the song was released, alongside a "Supernova 7" remix and an acoustic version.

Coldplay originally wrote the song for BTS, but the songwriting process was revised to include the South Korean septet.

Furthermore, Coldplay became the first British group in history to debut at number one on the Hot 100 and scored their first chart-topping single since "Viva la Vida" (2008).

Though located on different planets, the three groups are united as holograms through "HOLOBAND" technology controlled by alien DJ Lafrique, who broadcasts their performance throughout the system from her radio ship while being hunted by the Silencers.

[40] Rhian Daly from NME rated the song four out of five stars and called it "a celestial ode to unity, hope and the power of love".

[41] She also mentioned while some might view the track as an unusual pairing, the two acts "makes complete sense" together because "both share a predilection for a poetic and heartfelt approach to their music; as well as being two of the biggest bands in the world, they are also two of modern pop's deepest thinkers, imbuing their lyrics with touching statements on love and life".

[44] On 23 September 2021, a day before the song was officially released, Coldplay performed "My Universe" on Pandora's Small Stage Series at the Apollo Theater in New York City.

[71] Chris Martin performed a short acoustic rendition of the song as a preview during his guest appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show, which aired the following day.

[72] On 25 September, the band performed the song at the Global Citizen Festival in New York's Central Park, with BTS appearing virtually via a pre-recorded video that played onscreen behind them.

[73] The following month, the band performed the song during their guest appearance on The Graham Norton Show on 15 October,[74] at the 2021 Earthshot Prize ceremony at Alexandra Palace in London two days later (in which 60 cyclists pedalling on bikes provided the power for their performance),[75] and as part of their closing set for Audacy's 8th annual We Can Survive charity concert held at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles on 23 October.

Coldplay and BTS performed "My Universe" for the first time together at the 2021 American Music Awards on 21 November at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles.

[76] On 2 December, Martin joined BTS to perform the song at the latter's Permission to Dance on Stage concert at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California.
