CHRIS MARTIN - MARTIN'S BABY RAP

Proud father CHRIS MARTIN and his COLDPLAY bandmates have recorded a song and accompanying video to celebrate the arrival of his baby daughter APPLE - under the name THE NAPPIES.

The humorous promo - in tribute to the birth of his child with GWYNETH PALTROW on Friday (14MAY04) - features the band in heavy metal style wigs and is introduced by legendary BEATLES producer GEORGE MARTIN.

During the video, a bare-chested Martin raps, "There's s*** going down that you can't disguise/ When your boobs dem got ten times the size/ The cups gone up from an A to D/ It's bad for you but it's fun for me."

In a more serious moment, the British singer uses the comical sketch to assure his wife and baby: "I'll be there through the thin and the thick/ I'm gonna clean up all the poo and the sick."

The full video for the track is available at www.COLDPLAY.COM for one week only.
