Coldplay have revealed new song 'Miracles', written specifically for Angelina Jolie's real life dream, Unbroken. Listen to it below.
A piano-led ballad concerned with heavenly matters, it's the first track the band have released since Ghost Stories earlier this year. 'Unbroken' focuses on the real life exploits of former Olympic hero Louis Zamperini who survived a fatal plane crash only to be subjected to a series of Japanese prisoner of war camps. The soundtrack will be released on 15 December by Parlophone and Atlantic Records.

Last week, Coldplay were nominated for three Grammy Awards, taking the band's career total of nominations to 30. They also revealed to Zane Lowe recently they are currently in the studio working on their final album Head Full Of Clouds.
“We right in the middle of [recording]," said Martin. "It’s our seventh thing and the way we look at it it’s like the last Harry Potter book. That’s not to say there won’t be another thing one day, but this is the completion of something. It was great to go from Ghost Stories right back into the studio. Now, we’re making things that sound different. It’s a very fun time to be in our band.”
He added: "I have to think of it as the final thing we’re doing, otherwise we wouldn’t put everything into it."
Drummer Will Champion also recently told Jo Whiley: "We've got a big year planned next year in terms of recording, it's all mapped out."
With no tour dates announced, the band are rumoured for various festivals next summer. Meanwhile, the band have just released live album and DVD, Ghost Stories Live 2014.
