There no words I can use to describe what I feel when I hear it, I wish they let the song finish. My heart gets pounded by this piece of art. I love Joe for letting me hear what He feels through his songs. I can't thank him enough for this, my life definitely changed because of his music.
Part 4: Even if we try really really hard, we will never be 100% objective when judging a new thing, e.g. piece of art work, what songs are, we face. And it's ok like that. We cannot be able to get over our subjectiveness, but we can stay open-minded. And stop making a big thing out of five notes sounding similarly. ;) Thank you.
So the fact a couple of notes in one part of the theme sound similar you call "copying"? :/ Look at the whole musical inheritance of the mankind through all the ages. Almost everything that could have been invented in music has been made up and done. That's why most today's artists look for inspirations in previous decades, sometimes even unwillingly, because as a musician, even when you think you've made sth up totally by yourself in fact you are... To be continued.
Part 2: ...in fact you are being influenced by all the sounds you know, even if it's subconcious or you just have heard something only once and think you've forgotten it. It can even happen you don't really know anything similar to what you've made up but in reality there is with a 99,99% garanty at least one song already existing somewhere in the world that is in a way similar to yours and there is at least one person living somewhere to whom your song sounds like another one.
Part 3: I know it even from my own expierience. To me many new songs coming out sound like tracks I already know. For instance, many songs by GaGa sound for me like plagiarisms of old hits, even though I know maybe it wasn't (or at least in most cases wasn't) her intention to copy old stars. But it's okay. We always are being influenced by all our expieriences up to now, also in music, and we will always be. We can't just get over it, cause it's natural.
Fuck Coldplay. Just heard their song "Viva la vida" for the first time today and that fuckin sounds like this song, but Coldplay just aint no comparison to Satriani! This guy is a bloody genius, Id be so happy if I was half as good as him...
You guys are completely insane, there is absolutely no comparison between Satriani and Slash. Slash is very good, but there is a difference between good and being a genius. Slash would never be able to create something like this, never. He isn't knowledgeable enough in music to know how manipulate the chords like Satriani does, He is not technical enough for this. Slash is in a category below Satch with the other greats.
@Eddu13 Slash is to Joe what a Demi-God is to a god. They're both talented but Joe just takes it to a whole nother level....(had to stop myself from saying whole nubba lebel...curse you madtv)
@Eddu13 True Slash is not on the same level as Satriani. You can make an argument that someone like Yngwie Malmsteen can outshine Satriani though. Yngwie is a guitar God!!
@SugarRayDi Yngwie is alright, very boring, everything sounds the same, his music is natural, sounds like some heavy metal/rock with stolen soul from Paganini among others. He is one way traffic, unlike Satriani that can go with so many different styles and moods. Satch's music have a story within each song, some crazy stuff that only a few can relate to it. I think Yngwie is in the category of hard workers and human songs, while Satch is in different galaxy, just listen to him.
There's some parts similar to Coldplay's Viva La Vida, but I never believed they stole it from Joe. Plus, music builds off if other music anyway.
I wrote a song once that just happened to sound like Walking On a Line by Pony Pony Run Run, and I had never even heard the song till about 4 months later XD
But I still love Satriani. He's amazing!! Basically every song he's written has had great guitar riffs and chords.
But Coldplay too, I love them :) they've been mastering the music industry to
@Fl4k , actually Slash is a great improviser , maybe one of the best in metal . Slash can rip it up , anyone who thinks not doesn't know much about music , or guitar playing .
@FazeDrifter i didnt say his music is bad, guns n roses is good music but slash cant reach satriani or petrucci in any way, technically or in improvisation and i know much about music cuz im a musician :)
@Fl4k , well I am a musician too , for 41 years now . Slash has plenty of technique , he's just a completely different style than Joe , who I think is superb too . When Micheal Jackson wanted a lead guitarist for his tour , he didn't ask for Satchmo , he specifically asked for Slash . There's a lot more to playing expressive artful guitar than just technique alone . Take a look at the Jeff Beck / Drown in my Tears vid on here somewhere when you get a chance and see what I mean.
@FazeDrifter That's the thing isn't it? Technique is only relevant to a certain extent: It should enable you to play what you hear in your head as a musician. It's not a measure on which to measure musicians. I do think to the trained ear Satch is a better musician though, he's just more subtle, more versatile. Slash is a bit one-dimensional, but then again he doesn't need to be more than that for his music.
Hey guitar lovers. I have stumbled across a guitarist bad mouthing Joe, Yngwie and Vai. This person is known as @killRshred. His(it's) videos are terrible and should be hated on as he thinks he is extremely good, for example "he lacks tone, feel and is a fucking doucher". We need an army to cut rage at this person. watch?v=NIFblN5hgUs is a link to his "amazing improvisation". Please hate on it as much as possible. oh and paste this comment on other amazing guitarists videos.thanksforyourtime:)
tbh in general I do agree that a lot of the time when songs sound similar it is usually a coincidence and I hate it when people go around saying this has copied this constantly because it is stupid, however, in this case the two songs just seem a little too similar for it to be mere coincidence. I love Satriani's Work and in my opinion he is one of the best Guitarists out there!
Guys, imagine that. The number of songs made are waaaaay less than the notes, or notes combinations, whaaatever. I think it's stupid to say that Coldplay's Viva la Vida is made after this song.
this dude talking crap "i take it as an offense when people doubt my understanding of the arts¨" classical words of a pretencious nerd whore, how can coldplay made it better musically talking?? viva la vida clearly has less armonies, less notes, easier so way easier to write that down on paper, technically talking i would love to see coldplay dudes trying to play this song or any of satrianis work, doubt they will have the balls
@Darkhaner It's so funny that you're saying that, regardless of it being my opinion. You probably think you're the owner of all reason, but I must say: you're just another opinionated douche. I clearly stated MY opinion, and not anyone else's... plus, you still have a lot to learn to talk to me about arts ;)
@ReiJPR It was my mistake to assume that it was not an opinion-comment. And I apologize for it. You prefer Coldplay and I respect that. However, claiming that I think myself to be owner of all reason and an opinionated douche would be to insult me, something I did not do to you. Clearly, this was all a misunderstanding that I am sorry for. I propose we settle this in peace. What do you say ?
@Darkhaner I accept your premise. I'm sorry, too, but I always take it as an offense when people doubt my understanding of the arts, specially music, something I've been used to ever since I was a child. Again, I'm sorry I overreacted.
@ReiJPR Thank you. And apology accepted as well. I am glad we could settle this peacefully. I find too many people fighting, always pre-occupied about winning an argument. It shouldn't be like that. Thank you, I have appreciated this conversation. Take good care.
@freezaxp Wow, another Coldplay fan. Having great taste doesn't make you a great musician if all you do is plagiarise other people stuff whilst not recognizing it's not an original creation of yours, so STFU.
@metvincent I think this is another song than viva la vida. Some notes are nearly identical, but in this summary it sounds otherwise. Chris Martin and Joe Satriani have solved the problem, so I think your discussions are unnecessary :)
is an Italian American instrumental rock guitarist and multi-instrumentalist, with multiple Grammy Award nominations. Early in his career, Satriani worked as a guitar instructor, and some of his former students have achieved fame with their guitar skills (Steve Vai, Larry LaLonde, Rick Hunolt, Kirk Hammett, Andy Timmons, Charlie Hunter, Kevin Cadogan, Alex Skolnick). (15 Nomitations to Grammy Awards.)
I love the deejays' enthusiasm!!! Wow! Gorgeous, gorgeous song by Joe Satriani. After years of listening to Joe, Steve Vai, ERic Johnson, Ernie Isley, Duane Allman, Stevie Ray, and all the other fine, fine guitarists, past and present, I just count myself lucky to have ears to hear! Thanks for the post.
I see NO similarity whatsoever between this and Coldplay's Viva La Vida. If I looked I could EASILY find other songs MUCH more similar than this. In fact, call it a defensive falacy, but this could be the slight alteration of a GREAT number of songs...
@IbanezjemJSX Ok, so you're saying that I have a birth mental disability because I can't perceive the claimed similarity of two songs? My opinion and hearing make me/show that I have a mental disability? Is that a real thing you said or you just where fiddling with your keyboard and those exact keys came out? Also, you must not come across many people [and ask them that]. It is my opinion, chill. Does saying that makes you a bigger man? No.
I see no similarity. Differ? Congratulations. But relax
fair play, i'm too used to seeing coldplay fans coming on here and hating satch for it saying he's just in it for money and all this...
i just wish everyone would stop going on about it, because even satch has given up on it now lol
cant really remember what i said fully but i know i was in a bad mood that day, and found people still going on about it which pissed me off... if you don't see the similarity then fair enough
So everyone is against Coldplay now? Well now there's another! Look up Nikki Manaj's right thru me. Sound familiar anyone? I'll give you a hint: Always with me ;)
For me, this song is simply the best song ever without a doubt. Everything is perfect. The tone, the phrasing, the guitar playing, the melodies... everything in this song could be a golden standard for guitar playing.
ok I absolutely love Coldplay, but this one's a no-brainer
you could argue the songs are similar, but there's plenty of examples of when I've listened to a song and my first reaction was "oh I like this one" but then it's actually a different song. They didn't copy. The songs aren't even that similar. The melody on this one is miles off Viva La Vida's.
Aah. Listening to this song reminds me of an article I read about this song and Viva La Vida. :)
The article said something like: Coldplay claimed that the original song by Satriani lacked originality and does not deserve to be copyright protected. Does that mean that, they too, lack originality? xD
Love Satriani! <3
We will never know if Coldplay made that song themselfs or stealed the concept from this song, but I know I won't listen to Viva La Vida anymore. :)
@JesseReith1 LOL! Putting Joe Satriani alongside McCartney, Stones and Bob Dylan musically! Yeah and my shit is worth the equivalent of a tonne of gold!
i wish joe played this song live more often. honestly, this is one of my 3 favorite songs by him. i can close my eyes and it literally feels like he is pulling me into this dream where i am flying. it is amazing
Nice version !

I see NO similarity whatsoever between this and Coldplay's Viva La Vida. If I looked I could EASILY find other songs MUCH more similar than this. In fact, call it a defensive falacy, but this could be the slight alteration of a GREAT number of songs...

@IbanezjemJSX Ok, so you're saying that I have a birth mental disability because I can't perceive the claimed similarity of two songs? My opinion and hearing make me/show that I have a mental disability? Is that a real thing you said or you just where fiddling with your keyboard and those exact keys came out? Also, you must not come across many people [and ask them that]. It is my opinion, chill. Does saying that makes you a bigger man? No.
I see no similarity. Differ? Congratulations. But relax

fair play, i'm too used to seeing coldplay fans coming on here and hating satch for it saying he's just in it for money and all this...
i just wish everyone would stop going on about it, because even satch has given up on it now lol
cant really remember what i said fully but i know i was in a bad mood that day, and found people still going on about it which pissed me off... if you don't see the similarity then fair enough
sorry

For me, this song is simply the best song ever without a doubt. Everything is perfect. The tone, the phrasing, the guitar playing, the melodies... everything in this song could be a golden standard for guitar playing.

ok I absolutely love Coldplay, but this one's a no-brainer
you could argue the songs are similar, but there's plenty of examples of when I've listened to a song and my first reaction was "oh I like this one" but then it's actually a different song. They didn't copy. The songs aren't even that similar. The melody on this one is miles off Viva La Vida's.

Aah. Listening to this song reminds me of an article I read about this song and Viva La Vida. :)
The article said something like: Coldplay claimed that the original song by Satriani lacked originality and does not deserve to be copyright protected. Does that mean that, they too, lack originality? xD
Love Satriani! <3
We will never know if Coldplay made that song themselfs or stealed the concept from this song, but I know I won't listen to Viva La Vida anymore. :)
