Satriani sues Coldplay!

December 13th, 2008 4:57 am by SiLent_Man

This is no breaking news but I just heard about it today. So here goes…

LOS ANGELES – Rock guitarist Joe Satriani has sued British band Coldplay, accusing the Grammy-nominated stars of plagiarizing one of his songs.

Satriani’s copyright infringement suit, filed Thursday in Los Angeles federal court, claims the Coldplay song “Viva La Vida” incorporates “substantial original portions” of his 2004 instrumental “If I Could Fly.”

    From my obsevation:
    1. The beats match
    2. The tempo match
    3. The chord progression match
    4. And the melody line of the Coldplay songs verse matches the Satriani chorus

    But having been accustomed to note-to-note Bollywood rips, most Indians don’t seem to care :)
