Lianne La Havas, the British singer and songwriter who was a close friend of Prince, paid perfect tribute to the late legend on Wednesday night with a cover of "Sometimes It Snows in April."

Oh, and Coldplay was there too. 

The band invited La Havas to the stage at their show in Copenhagen.

Prince and La Havas were friends for years before his sudden death in April at age 57. The Purple One once performed at her London home in 2014 and the two later collaborated on "Clouds" off Art Official Age. 

After his death, La Havas remembered Prince in an interview with BBC Radio 2. 

"He treated everyone like it was their birthday, you'd always feel really special around him," she said, according to NME. "There was an older brother/ mentor role that he assumed. I was happy to hear what he had to say and the suggestions that he had to make."
