Babelgum launches Coldplay iPhone app

Features Strawberry Swing video


31 July 2009 12:36 GMT / By Duncan Geere

Babelgum has announced that it's developed an iPhone application for the band Coldplay. The app includes video content, as well as a Coldplay news feed and a mini game.

The big inclusion is the video for the track Strawberry Swing, which was directed by a group of visual artists called Shynola, who have also worked with Beck, Blur, Junior Senior and Radiohead. The Strawberry Swing video is joined by all the band's previous videos too.

In the mini game included, Chris Martin "battles giant squirrels and sea monsters to rescue a princess". We're as confused as you are about that one, though it apparently replicates the Strawberry Swing video, so that might be what's going on.

Lastly, a news feed will give Coldplay fans the latest info, alongside competitions to win tickets and travel to see Coldplay's current world tour. The application is available now and costs nothing.
