Shiver (Coldplay song)

"Shiver" is a song by British rock band Coldplay which appeared on the band's debut album Parachutes (2000), and was released as the album's lead single in the United Kingdom and second single in the United States following "Yellow".

There was media speculation regarding which "specific" woman is the focus in the lyrics - Martin has denied it was about Australian singer-songwriter Natalie Imbruglia.

Martin allegedly wrote the song about Australian singer-songwriter Natalie Imbruglia, a woman he was romantically linked with at the time, but he later denied it was about her.

[4][5] Keeling was disappointed with the early demos presented to him,[2] saying it "didn't have any of their passion, their energy", a result of the band's freshly resolved internal pressure in the time.

[4] Smaller parts of the song were recorded at Parr Street Studios in Liverpool, England,[2] where the band relocated after Christmas in 1999.

[2][12] The single had been picked up for B-play lists on some European prominent radio stations.

"[19] A review by David DeVoe in Hybridmagazine.com reads, "'Shiver' is a delightfully laid back tune, full of that great guitar sound that I have come to appreciate this band for.

[22][23] The music video for "Shiver" was directed by English film director and cinematographer Grant Gee.

The yellow globe featured on the Parachutes cover can be seen on top of an amplifier in the video.
