"Viva | "Viva la Vida" is a cover of a song originally performed by the English alternative rock band Coldplay. It was written by all members of the band for their fourth album, ''Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends''. "Viva la Vida" means "Long live life" in Spanish. [[Weezer]] lead singer [[Rivers Cuomo]] performed the song live on [[October 28]], [[2009]] for I Heart Radio's "Stripped" performance in New York, but, at that point, it probably wasn't being considered for release on an album.
