Dick Van Dyke is the focus of Coldplay’s latest music video, “All My Love.” In a clip, Van Dyke sings, dances barefoot and offers meditations on aging, family and love.
A shorter version of the video will be released Dec. 13 on Van Dyke’s 99th birthday.
There have been some truly beautiful morning skies this week.
