This goes to show that the perfect song would in all probability have never been made, had it not been for God's influence in this incidence.
-
I love satriani, But just because the other song uses the same chords, it's a bit over the top to sue, they're clearly different songs, just with the same chords, many, Many songs do the same thing
-
Coldplay is just awful, and Satriani's tune sounds fit for a "Sonic the Hedgehog" videogame. I'm not denying that Satriani is a good musician, just not my cup of tea.
-
I mean, in this video, its obvious that the pitch was bended of Coldplay's song, or else it wouldn't have sounded the same.
-
Sorry, but english isnt my native lenguage.
I only say, satriani is better for me.
I dont like lying musicians.
-
Coldplay version isnt better, nothing to be thankfull.
-
@tomaspepino Learn how to spell before trying to form an opinion.
-
@MerloHardRock They copied one single motif, not the whole song? I still think coldplay made a better song out of satriani's motif. he should be thankful
-
isnt better, u like it more, but satriani version is 100% mor eimaginative

@ColdplayIsMyWorld - Viva la vida was recorded in 2007. If I Could Fly was recorded in 2004, 3 years before. Took 7 years to write and was dedicated to his wife. That is one of the big reasons to the lawsuit. It is a very special song for Joe. The money paid by Coldplay to Joe was given to charity. Joe never wanted Coldplay money, was only a matter of principles.

@carola613 Lol I won't even bother replying to your comments anymore. You talk like a 10 year old fangirl who knows nothing about music. Just go listen to your shitty bands and stop talking shit about a man that knows more about music than all of the retards from Coldplay together.
