Coldplay’s frontman Chris Martin recently made a virtual appearance on Saturday Night Live as a musical guest and delivered a nice surprise to the TV audience. Instead of playing one of his own songs, Martin decided to perform a cover of Bob Dylan’s classic “Shelter from the Storm.”

The latest SNL episode was entirely shot remotely due to ongoing health crisis, with both guests and cast members taking part in the show from their homes. The episode was hosted by Academy Award-winning actor Tom Hanks.

Martin delivered a stripped-down rendition of the song, using only an acoustic guitar to complement his voice. His performance ended up being captured in a black-and-white music video. Check it out below.

“Shelter from the Storm” was part of Bob Dylan’s seminal record Blood on the Tracks, released in 1975, and remains one of the artist’s most recognizable tracks. The song was covered on multiple occasions in the past, with acts like Cassandra Wilson, Rodney Crowell, and even actor Bill Murray delivering their own versions.

Bob Dylan is treating his fans with some rare covers during the last couple of live shows across the United States.

After playing Henry Mancini’s “Moon River” for the first time since 1990 in Savannah, Dylan decided to surprise the fans at his show in Augusta by covering James Brown’s hit “It’s a Man’s Man’s Man’s World.” This was the first time that Dylan played one of Brown’s songs at his concerts.

It was a fitting cover since Brown moved to Augusta from Barnwell at a young age and started his music career in the city.

Bob Dylan is famous for banning cellphones at his concerts, so we assumed that we missed out on this special event. Luckily, one fan managed to capture most of the song on a video with a surprising clean audio.

Hear Dylan playing “It’s a Man’s Man’s Man’s World” below.

James Brown co-wrote “It’s a Man’s Man’s Man’s World” with Betty Jean Newsome and recorded the song in 1966. It became a hit on the charts, peaking at number eight on US Billboard Hot 100 and topping the US R&B Singles charts. The song became one of Brown’s most popular songs and ended up being selected as one of Rolling Stone magazine’s list of the 500 greatest songs of all time.
