(Gibson) Coldplay are strongly rumored as the music act for the opening of the London 2012 Olympics. According to Music-News.com, the Dartington Hall Trust, which will commission the Olympics song, see songwriter Chris Martin as their first choice.

A source told the Daily Mirror: "Chris is at the top of the list to front the official record. He's a huge star and a British musical icon, with an international profile. We're pulling out all the stops to get hold of him, ideally with the rest of Coldplay involved, too.

"Coldplay are the biggest stadium rockers in Britain today and their style of anthemic music would be perfect for the Olympics. The hope is that they would perform at the opening ceremony, as well as produce a recording of the track, which could help fund good causes in British sport." more on this story
