"Everglow" is a song by British rock band Coldplay. It is the fourth track from their seventh studio album, A Head Full of Dreams. It features uncredited vocals by Gwyneth Paltrow, who at the time was married to Chris Martin despite their separation being announced in 2014. The track premiered during Zane Lowe's Beats 1 radio show on 26 November 2015, and originally made available as a promotional single for the album on 27 November 2015. Variance ranked it among the best songs of the year.

On 11 November 2016, the song was released as the fifth and final single from A Head Full of Dreams through a new stripped-down version, which was inspired by Martin's unrehearsed solo performance of the song at the Glastonbury Festival. This recording ends with a sample of Muhammad Ali's 1977 speech in Newcastle upon Tyne.
