During the cover, Lee fittingly wore a bright yellow bomber jacket while he played some chords on his piano. He then sang with an angelic falsetto, pulling off gentle riffs along the way. Golden lights lit up behind him as he wrapped up with a perfect run and a gorgeous arpeggio. 

Lee is no stranger to nailing Coldplay covers. In March 2023, he shared a clip of himself singing a mesmerizing version of "Fix You," a song he said that he personally loves. He belted the bridge in a way that will send chills down your spine.
