Did Coldplay copy Joe Satriani?



Uploaded by: iGotSpaceLikeNASA
Video Description:
IMO all this argument comes down to is who you are a fan of. Of course Coldplay fans arent going to accept that the songs are similar. And Satriani fans are going to be annoyed. Dont have a go at me if this video upsets you. (Coldplay fans) Im not claiming Coldplay copied anyone, just putting the thought out there for people to talk about.
Coldplay have recently been accused of copying 'Songs I Didnt write' by Creaky Boards on their new single Viva La Vida. The song is also similar, if not more so to Joe Satriani's song 'If I Could Fly'. Full Remix of the two songs is at http://youtube.com/watch?v=w3kytzHrKpo Msg me for mp3 of the
two songs together

Fuck coldplay. They stole music from 2 artists basically and you call them "really good". Are you a fucking communist to?????

moovwatchr07 you should kill yourself. "I think they did a good job of cutting it as close as possible without actually stealing." Basically you admit they stole but say that its ok because they didn't steal enough. Go outside after you drink a container of bleach and hug a tree until you die.

wow the maker is a MAJOR asshole!! 2 reasons this is not copied (and i am a huge Satch Fan by the way):
1. He tuned up the song by a whole step to make it in pitch with If I Could Fly 2. Yes, it is simalar!! IN 1 BAR!! that is 1 bar that the lyric notes are simalar to Joe's guitar!! And that only sounds simalar if it were pitched up!! So is it copied: NO

Chord Progression ... ( 23 hours ago by NJDevils1087)
Chord Progression is off because Viva is moved up. I'm not a "Coldplay fan" of any hardcore nature. But a lot of music is often just remakes. The fact that their song is a different driving pattern and has lyrics makes this point moot. A lot of today's songs are just remakes of classic tunes.

the thing is, ... ( 20 hours ago by moovwatchr07)
the thing is, coldplay brought the tune to mainstream. which means that Joe isn't as good as ya'll say he is. If it took another band "ripping off" his junk, like ya'll idiots say, just so his crap will get noticed, then apparently it wasn't that good to begin with.
not only that, but ... ( 20 hours ago by moovwatchr07)
not only that, but ya'll keep arguing the same mess. artist rip each other off. its part of life. get a life. move on. I'm with DJMedinaz. Most bands these days only have like two or three worthwile songs. All music has a heritage in the same place, there are bound to be some repeats. Tell me to kill myself again. I HAVE a life. I don't sit on the computer all day arguing over stupid crap.
Well unless you're ... ( 20 hours ago by Koreanflow)
Well unless you're going to take it into consideration that mainstream listeners nowadays don't know jack about good music(just referring to the fact that no one in my class generation listens to any of the music greats out there) so we come to a point that is once again debate-able. Have you listened to the real song that Satriani wrote? It's pretty good, I'd say-whether or not it has the recognition of millions of listeners or not.

I beg to differ on your statement alejoriggi - quite often, more than enough, people have the technical ability and can make a "good sound" out of their instruments but if you know anything about music, there is a huge amount of emotion and creativity involved rather than just sound. Of course crappy sounding music will always sound crappy no matter what but if you think music is just sound, you have very little knowledge of it because you can't structure something as broad as music in a box.

it sound similar tho and im a huge coldplay fan! but i dont really think they copied it maybe just that notes could be similar but not copied at all

Very alike, except that 'Viva La Vida' is pitched. I also thought I had heard the melody in 'Viva La Vida' somewhere else when I heard it the first time (not from Satriani though).

Its really only three notes that are the same. and the people in coldplay have probaly never heard of Satriani.

Coldplay has major label backing and pushing them into the mainstream, These big companies want catchy tunes that'll sell to the mass market who are used to bland music. There are thousands of amazing artists who only get small recognition sometimes none,and joe satriani is one who has done quite well,as he is still going 20 years from when he started and he tours internationally. He is known as one of the greatest, He is world class.
Really? You think ... ( 7 hours ago by BathroomWindowGirl)
Really? You think so? Joe Satriani is huge in the music world, considered one of the best guitarists ever. Dude, there's no way Coldplay don't know who Satriani is.
so what if they did ... ( 6 hours ago by Dylanshreds1)
so what if they did? and I consider myself more of a Satriani fan than a Coldplay fan. If a band like Coldplay wrote a song a song that sounded just like mine, and they knew of me I would be rather flattered. Anyways, there's almost no new chord progressions or melodies out their now. They've all been done.

Neither version of that basic melody is all that inventive. When you put music like that out, there are going to be others doing the same thing. Big whatever.
