"I play here every Thursday, so this is perfect,” joked Chris Martin when he took the stage for a surprise performance inside Beverly Hills’ Beverly Wilshire hotel at An Unforgettable Evening, the Women’s Cancer Research Fund’s 13th annual fundraising dinner. “Normally, it's bingo, so this is a step up for me.” Seconds before, the event’s organizers had announced that the night’s first musical guest had suddenly dropped out, a ruse, of course, to build excitement, and it worked. Jaws dropped as the Coldplay singer sat at the piano and played a series of touching tributes. First, to George Michael with a stripped-down version of Wham!’s “Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go,” followed by Leonard Cohen’s “Suzanne” and David Bowie’s “Life On Mars?” “Can you stop filming?” he requested with a smile after the first number. “I'm going to play while you have dinner. This is not YouTube-able what's about to happen. Please stop filming, for real, for real. I'm just going to do my thing." Most obliged, as they dined on the main course of seared chicken breast and veggies, and began chatting away, while Martin played, casually, filling the room with background music. link

I love it! The man is Godly. And I've always loved Tom Hanks as well (of course, one a helluva lot more than the other, but still...). Class acts!
