Koyama noted that he sometimes listened to Coldplay while he was drawing Uchu Kyodai, which is why he wanted to ask the British band to provide the theme song for the film.

When Coldplay was at the Fuji Rock Festival in Japan in July, the band saw a promotional video for the film and said that they thought the video was wonderful and decided to contribute a song to the film. This is the first theme song that Coldplay has contributed to a Japanese film.

“Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall” is a track on Coldplay’s latest album, Mylo Xyloto.
