Download: Coldplay – Fight For Your Right (Adam Yauch Tribute)

Yesterday came the immensly sad news that Adam Yauch, founding member of The Beastie Boys, passed away after a three year battle with cancer.
A multi-talented man who was loved and respected the world over, Yauch leaves behind a wife and a daughter.
The Beastie Boys have made an official statement.
Tributes and condolences have been pouring in from across the globe, including musicians and fans. One of the first we’ve seen is this, a cover of Fight For Your Right performed by Coldplay on the evening of his death.
That there is such an emotional response at a Coldplay gig shows exactly how far the reach of Yauch’s work really went.
RIP MCA.

Coldplay’s style lends itself to tributes pretty well- I saw them in Raleigh not too long after Michael Jackson’s death and they played Billy Jean- one of the coolest things I’ve seen.
