Live 2003 is the first live album by British rock band Coldplay. It was released in November 2003 and serves as the band's second live release, following Trouble – Norwegian Live EP (2001). Featuring the concerts filmed at Sydney's Hordern Pavilion on 21 and 22 July 2003, the album was nominated for Best Long Form Music Video at the 47th Annual Grammy Awards.[6] and named one of the greatest releases of the year by Blender.[7] It was also screened at cinemas in the United States.[8]

The song "Moses", exclusive to this record, was written about Chris Martin's wife Gwyneth Paltrow and inspired the name of their second child, Moses Bruce Anthony Martin, born in 2006.[9][10] It was solicited to US alternative radio as a promotional single on 6 October 2003.[11] The recording of "Clocks" also had a promotional radio push in countries such as Mexico and Spain.[12]
