Coldplay, one of the most beloved and acclaimed British bands in the country, caused so much commotion among their fans that it didn't take long to release several funny memes about their visit to the territory. Thousands were arrowed with their performances of Mexican songs such as Amor Eterno, in honor of the Divo de Juárez, Juan Gabriel, and Rayando el Sol, along with Fher, vocalist of the band Maná.
After giving several concerts in Mexico City, Monterrey and Guadalajara, the London-born group showed its followers their love and enthusiasm for having stepped on Mexican territory. One of the things that was most applauded was that they managed to please many fans by opening more dates for their tour titled Music of the Spheres.
However, the memes were allowed to come when different Internet users started joking about the band's long stay in the Republic, and many images read “Coldplay has been in Mexico for so long that...”, a situation that made the experience of those who had the opportunity to see them live even more exciting.
But it's true, it should not be surprising that from being here so much, they surely became as taco lovers as any compatriot. There is no denying that this delicacy conquers the hearts and palates of several foreigners.
There was no shortage of those who related their stay with the fun and classic Simpsons program, others associated it with an American series entitled Drake&Josh, comparing their reaction to the epic adventure they experience when they ride a dangerous roller coaster, because it's no secret that for many it was the best light show and sounds.
In this same sense of relating the band to the tastes of the fans, there were those who took the opportunity to put on the shirt of their favorite team like Cruz Azul, the clear example that the fans never abandon you. On the other hand, Chris Martin's Mexicanity was so ensured that they soon made him a passport and changed his surname to one of the territory: Martínez.
Among the funniest creations, the memes that show Chris going to pay for his property stand out, which means that he probably bought his house or better yet, he took it out in INFONAVIT, and he even went to put his tax situation in order with the SAT. If that was not enough, he also made sure that, like many artists, he had already decided to start his political career and the PRI convinced him to run for deputy.
The euphoria of their visit was such that even the president was involved, on the one hand, some ironized that Andrés Manuel López Obrador had already criticized them at his morning conference and on the other hand they even related them to the promotion of the revocation of the mandate.
The creativity of users knew no levels and food still worked as a pretext for making memes. The poster for a tamale stand outside the concert was the cherry on the cake of the different images that were shared. Some even joked about the flavors offered. In the same way, corn appeared, especially the dilemma of whether the corn goes with the chili of which it itches or does not, assuring that the ones from Coldplay have been in Mexico so long that they put it from the one that is spicy.
Part of the national identity was related to the brand of the vaccine that most Mexicans have on their arms, admirers assured that the members of the band were so Mexican that they even had this brand.
There's no denying that Chris is quite an icon, so much so that they even put his face on the 100-peso bill. Finally, the wave of memes unleashed to such an extent that others began to get tired of seeing so much of that content on their social networks.
The impact of the British music, their surprising show, the love for their fans and the offering of more than 5 concerts were enough for their followers to include them in Mexican culture, and what better way to do it if not with multiple funny memes.
