Analysis: Coldplay vs Joe Satriani Mashup

My Father as a big RnB and Blues fan(bless him)tells me he thought the same of almost every Rolling Stones song. But they were smart enough to stay out of court & quite often the plaintiffs were too poor to refuse a compromise. Riff ripping is rife in commercial music but it always has been. After all these songs have already settled into the conscious millieu decades earlier making it easier for the masses to accept, familiar,warm non-confrontational Hits. One wonders why?

well at least they asked Permission to borrow the guitar riffs from Kraftwerk for Talk.

coldplay are thieving bastards.....they have put their talent under suspicion...

hypocracy, tasty

its a good song mashed up lol

just because 1 part of the song sounds similar and you are jealous cuz coldplay won best song of the year with that song, it doesnt meen u have to accuse coldplay of copying it, just wtf, u retard they are different

You're blatantly ignoring the videos analysis, either taht or you know nothing about music

The fact that the songs are nearly identical but colplays is more popular means one thing:
People who like coldplay are not listening to the music, they are looking at the bands cute faces, a good half of the coldplay fans i see are girls under the age of 14,
Satriani gets fans of people who are open minded enough to listen to something without lyrics in it, most people think that instrumentals are a joke but satriani can put 100x more emotion in a song than some pop stars with cute haircuts.

Continuing: The only thing people like you promote is the thought that music is a popularity contest, Joe satriani doesnt need the money, or the fame, he wants to protect what is his, because he put alot of work into his song that he wrote for somebody he loved, and he waited 6 months before suing the people who ignored his questions.
I garuntee you have never heard another satriani song in your life, but i have heard all of coldplays cliche poems with guitars over them, and i am not impressed.

you're a moron.
