A Coldplay fan has been beaten up following their rendition of "Yellow" in a karaoke bar.

The incident took place in Seattle on Thursday (August 9) at Changes.

As the unnamed man took the stage to sing the song, a woman reportedly declared: "Oh no, not that song. I can't stand that song!"

She then leaped at the would-be singer, shouted expletives at him and told him his singing "sucked," while expressing the same opinion of the song, according to a Seattle police report.

She pushed the man and punched him, all in an effort to stop his singing.

Other patrons went to the singer's aid and hauled the 21-year-old woman outside.

Robert Willmette, one the barmen at Changes, said: "It took three or four of us to hold her down."

According to the barman, the woman "went crazy" when she got outside, punching him twice in the face.

The police were called and blocked the whole street off.

The officers took the woman, whom Willmette described as "a little hippie girl," to the ground.

She assaulted the police officer and was booked into the King County Jail for investigation of assault, reports the Seattle P.I. paper.

A good way to win her heart would be to pay for her bail. LOL

Right on! :)

Damn, what a nerve! :D

At least, you'd better not sing her ballads.
I don't even know a single Coldplay tune, BTW.

Good girl. There are still a few true rock 'n' roll girls out there. :D

I laughed hard at that one! She'd probably have broken a bottle in the guy's face if he'd started singing "Dreams"!

Five stars.

(I can't believe I hadn't given you five stars already FORD, seems like I should have done it many, many moons ago....)

"Speed of sound" is my favorite Coldplay track to date.

That is all.
