If you cannot hear any similarities in this you should get your head out coldplays ass and start listening to something else...Because this is the exact same... thumbs up if you are watching this with at least an open mind.
"Coldplay received permission from the electronica band Kraftwerk to use the main riff from their song "Computer Love" for "Talk", replacing Kraftwerk's synthesizers with guitars."
They didnt just take the lead hook, they also took the bass line. listen to the bass line about half way through computer love and compare with the bass line on talk.
antes de falar mal, pesquisa pra ver se realmente não foi credutado ok? No álbum tá escrito que a música foi composta por Guy Berryman, Jonny Buckland, Will Champion, Chris Martin, Ralf Hütter, Karl Bartos, Emil Schult.
@v3n3n054 OK, Ok, mas o kraftwerk, autorizou isso, foi divulgado na época para quem nao sabe. Eu gosto das duas musicas e acho válido! Kraftwerk são mestres, Soul Sonic Forge também chuparam outro musica do Kraft so que essa eu ja nao sei se foi autorizado.
To those who discount the process of creative collaboration, I say this: If we wrote every song with notes never played, every book with letters never used and spoke every sentence with words never uttered-- yes, we would qualify as "original" by your definition. However, we would also live in a world devoid of the arts, the sciences, and law. By your own standards, you'd be terribly unoriginal yourself: many like you have come before you and many are yet to come. Allow me to plagiarize: :-)
@Guilthas Please, enlighten us: how exactly is the plagiarism pretty obvious? IF (1) plagiarism is to steal and pass off (the ideas or words of another) as one's own, i.e. the use (of another's production) without crediting the source (m-w.com); AND (2) Chris Martin expounded on using the riff here: contactmusic. com/news-article/martin-sent-kraftwerk-begging-letter ; THEN (3) using of the riff =/= plagiarism. QED.
Who cares if they asked??? They still didn't CREATE IT! Anytime they try to break from their co-linear sound, they have to borrow... Because they suck.
Both did a great job with this song. BBUUTT I like Kraftwerks version better because it is the true meaning and the way it is mean to be and Colplay did kind of kill it but I like them both so yeah poeple.
Fuck this Coldplay fucked this entire song up they prolonged every note and took out the digital sounds that sucks I'm not hating on the entire band and their music but they seriously fucked this song up
"YES" was all the hand written note said after cold play asked permission to use the melody. speaks volumes about Kraftwerk's character and love for music.
These are both great bands. If they share some of the same notes, so what! Anyone can electronicaly forge and mix music to sound similar anyway, it's been done before. These are both very unique and great bands, why attempt to diminish them.
@terminaldeity coldplay has lots of original songs. Violet hill, strawberry swing, moses, etc. but nobody sees good things when they only think about the bad things people do. You can't love two things, if you are not open for it. It is sad you are not open for anything more then one thing. Life is about comparing and stand open to new things. You can't desparately hold on to one thing all the time
Clearly the concept of exaggerating for effect is lost on you. Are you unfamiliar with the allegations of plagiarism? Do you not understand cynical humor?
@terminaldeity Of course they have original songs, like Viva La Vida, Clocks, Strawberry Swing, The Scientist, Sparks, Lost!, Lovers in Japan, Daylight, Amsterdam... Can I continue?
Just do your homework, Coldplay asked for Kraftwerk's approval, and they said "yes" to Coldplay ;)
@terminaldeity hahaha Nope, I don't mean to search for singles, but to search for the fact that Coldplay asked for Kraftwerk's approval to use part's of their song "ComputerLove" in Coldplay's song "Talk", just that.
It's sad to see that a lot of people like you don't like to search first, and prefer to say prejudices, often misinformed. That's the homework people need to do :D
Duhhhhh, that's why i said "at least they got permission this time."
Obviously, i was inferring about the legal use of the sample in contrast to previous songs which they've been accused of plagiarizing. You are seriously dense if you didn't pick up on that from the start.
a primeira vez que eu ouvi essa música dos colplay eu pensei exactamente isso "os coldplay plagiaram os kraftwerk!" mas depois soube que eles pediram permissão, logo não é tão grave quanto isso.
@ReticentArc Very true, They wrote Kraftwerk a letter asking to use the riff. And apparently got a letter back from Kraftwerk which simply said one word: Yes.
coldplay appeals more to the younger generation, i mean kids today don't wanna see 4 bald guys acting like robots or singing about some "autobahn" lol...
don't get me wrong, Kraftwerk along with Stereolab are my favourites.
¡Cris Martin le envió una carta a Krafterk pidiéndole autorización para usar el riff y obtuvo su permiso!!! En él álbum, en la parte de los autores de las canciones especifica: "Todas las canciones escritas por Martin-Buckland-Champion-Berryman excepto la nro 5 (Talk) y ahi nombra los integrantes de Krafterwerk como co-autores.
Gente, por favor antes de criticar infórmense!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, dejen de hablar al pedo!!!!!!!!!
fijense el tema crests of waves de coldplay q es un b-side d colplay, es exactamente igual a There Is a Light That Never Goes Out de The Smiths, hasta el ritmo d bateria, es horrible el plagio, ademas la parte q parece no plagiada es un remiz de otros temas de ese mismo disco de the smith, The queen is Dead, es totalmente de johnny marr ese tema...jaja
siempre están haciendo homenajes... con Jos Satriani también no? ajajaja vaya personajos.
La canción de Viva la vida, tan hit que ha sido, es simplemente tocar la canción de Joe Satriani al estilo de Arcade Fire (grupo del que Coldplay están tan enamorados, segun dijeron ellos mismos).
knn all of u no brain isit or u listen to too little songs ar doncha noe that now almost all songs have tunes here and there that sound the same from another song i know of alot of examples liao
I prefer the Kraftwerk original production of this. I can understand why cold play wanted to basically 'cover' it, its a great track. Oddly cold play here have the far better 'sounding' sample thus distorting the comparison a bit. It needs re-doing with samples of equal quality.
@bohemiandaisy9 It's a real tribute if they paying kraftwerk for it otherwise it's stealing. If you don't agree, give me your bankaccount-details and I will rob your money as a tribute to you. :)
cold play asked permission to use this melody. they sent a letter to kraftwerk's studio asking if they could use the melody from computer love for this song. kraftwerk replied simply with the word "yes" handwritten on a piece of paper.
@prickerbush That's not right. As said by Coldplay' singer, they called the KlingKlang Studio in Germany and asked Ralf Hutter directly if they could use the riff. He said yes.
@prickerbush yeah you're right!!!! and SHUT UP YOU FUCKERS... WHY DON'T ACCEPT THAT COLDPLAY MADE A GREAT WORK WITH THIS RIFF? I KNOW THE ANSWER: CAUSE YOU'RE NOT CAPABLE TO SAY THIS... YOU ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO LIKE THE CRAP THAT THE POP SINGERS MAKE TODAY.
Oi like coldplay arent plaigerising the riff at all. They used it with permission and have openly admitted about using it. All musicians take ideas off other musicians. That's just something that happens
I am glad other people have noticed this. I hate the way that Coldplay act like they are well original and then they blatently go and use other peoples riffs.
OK. Surely it's a great thing that Coldplay have used Kraftwerk's riff for "Talk"? I mean, let's face it, it's not like Kraftwerk are the most current band, so Coldplay are just bringing some old music back from the 80s. Kraftwerk should be honoured, people only decide to cover singles or riffs when they're good.
Uh. Surely it's not a great thing. There's a huge difference between covering and plagiarism. Coldplay is just a shitty band that can't right hits without using other people's songs
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
LEts face it, blatant rip off, everyone has heard this song, even if you lived in a cave you would know that riff, totally blatant theft, didnt he recently get sued for something similar, its a shame, i really likede parachutes, it was a good album, the track spies in particular really enjoyed it, but when i heard this on the radio i nearly threw my tea at it.... mad thievin cunt lol
Bands (term used very loosely in terms of coldplay) have every right to pay tribute to other music, however they could at least give it the credit. I've never heard them give any credit to Kraftwerk
el negro "Flo Rida" hiso algo parecido con un tema de "dead or alive"...ademas, decis plagio como si hubieran copiado toda la cancion, es solo esa parte de la melodia y nada mas
I think it's awesome that Coldplay would play such a tribute to Kraftwerk. So much about modern music stems from the experimental sounds of Kraftwerk, and it's awesome to see fans and creators remember their roots.
Of course, no one can play Kraftwerk like Kraftwerk themselves :)
Lets face-it people.Kraftwerk has never seen the light of day comercially,so when Kraftwerk fans,like myself and many others hear the coldplay lift it's like- WTF!!! Does anyone make their own ideas anymore??!!
K PEOPLE.. COLDPLAY SAMPLED THE SONG THEY DIDNT STEAL IT.. just shut up about it already both of the bands are awesome, and coldplay liked the song by kraftwerk, so they got PERMISSION to sample it.. jeez stop hating on coldplay seriously
Coldplay did not only copy the main melody, but they copied all the chord progressions as well. Apart from the lyrics-which really are not very good-there are no other elements written by Coldplay except for the title.
"The band received permission from the electronic music German band Kraftwerk to use the main riff from their song "Computer Love" (German: Computerliebe), from their 1981 studio LP Computer World (German: Computerwelt), for "Talk", replacing Kraftwerk's synthesizers with guitars."
Coldplay wrote a letter to ask kraftwerk if they could use the music.

OK. Surely it's a great thing that Coldplay have used Kraftwerk's riff for "Talk"? I mean, let's face it, it's not like Kraftwerk are the most current band, so Coldplay are just bringing some old music back from the 80s. Kraftwerk should be honoured, people only decide to cover singles or riffs when they're good.

Uh. Surely it's not a great thing. There's a huge difference between covering and plagiarism. Coldplay is just a shitty band that can't right hits without using other people's songs

ya, pero coger la melodia principal ya es suficiente kmo para que sea plagi no?

C'mon people, do some research. Coldplay didn't "steal" this from Kraftwerk, they asked permission to use the riff and Kraftwerk obliged.

Bands (term used very loosely in terms of coldplay) have every right to pay tribute to other music, however they could at least give it the credit. I've never heard them give any credit to Kraftwerk

Would you have listened to Kraftwork's song if Coldplay hadn't stolen it? There's their credit.

lo k pasa es k lo han copiado por toda la cara y Kraftwerk no se como no ha tomado medidas, porque es plagio en toda regla
MrBardock12 2 years ago
el negro "Flo Rida" hiso algo parecido con un tema de "dead or alive"...ademas, decis plagio como si hubieran copiado toda la cancion, es solo esa parte de la melodia y nada mas

I think it's awesome that Coldplay would play such a tribute to Kraftwerk. So much about modern music stems from the experimental sounds of Kraftwerk, and it's awesome to see fans and creators remember their roots.
Of course, no one can play Kraftwerk like Kraftwerk themselves :)

The ignorance of some people is just truly astonishing. Coldplay asked to use the riff, and kraftwerk said sure. End of story.

Coldplay did not only copy the main melody, but they copied all the chord progressions as well. Apart from the lyrics-which really are not very good-there are no other elements written by Coldplay except for the title.

"The band received permission from the electronic music German band Kraftwerk to use the main riff from their song "Computer Love" (German: Computerliebe), from their 1981 studio LP Computer World (German: Computerwelt), for "Talk", replacing Kraftwerk's synthesizers with guitars."

OMG! everyone is so confused. COLDPLAY WRITES THEIR OWN MUSIC. sometimes people cover songs and takes only the tune, not the lyrics!
they just didnt give the credit, so stop hating on coldplay! it was all a misundertanding.
