by Coldplay
The Scientist was written by Coldplay (credited collectively), around 2001–2002 and released in 2002 on their second studio album A Rush of Blood to the Head. The Scientist is a piano-driven alternative rock ballad whose lyrics deal with regret and a desire to go back in time to repair a broken relationship. The song received critical acclaim, became one of Coldplay’s signature tracks, charted internationally, and is especially noted for its award-winning reverse-motion music video.
