Coldplay's "Moses" was a new song written for Live 2003, the band's concert album, and Parlophone sent it out as a promotional single on 6 October 2003, between "God Put a Smile upon Your Face" and "Speed of Sound".
It's a love song with its heart in plain view. It was written about Gwyneth Paltrow, Chris Martin's wife at the time, and he described it as being "about falling in love with the most beautiful woman in the world." That kind of open-armed devotion is exactly what the song delivers, and cutting it live in front of a crowd only makes the swoon bigger.
