Hold on dude, they were obviously doing a cover with the singer of the original performing with them. I dont believe they had anything to cover up or admit.

Oh but wait just a minute.... The Verve (a band i adore and saw many times) nicked Bitter Sweet Symphony from The Rolling Stones.

The circle just goes round and around...

+1. I had a big coldplay phase in my teens, don't listen to them any more but I have respect for them. Radiohead on the other hand, will always be awesome.

i just noticed this thread, and the first 7 seconds of every teardrop rekindled my utter hatred for them! i was at live 8 and the only decent track i have ever heard them perform is bittersweet symphony with richard ashcroft, and they didnt even try to hide the roots of that one, at least hey were up front i suppose.

I believe they wanted to call themselves 'The Ambivalent Drones' but the record company said, "No, just use the name of your first Biology teacher"

I like Coldplay and continue to be grateful that it's them we are still hearing and not those awful f#ckers Travis.

whether you like coldplay or not (i don't)
kind of odd to see people on a DJ board call them out for sampling a melody, considering EDM and Hiphop artists are notorious for being the biggest offenders of this.

forgot who said it: good artist create, great artist steal.

Not at all saying Coldplay is great, I find them boring, but that seems to be the rule for creatives in many fields.

I dont believe any of it.

I domt believe Coldplay need to nick other peoples stuff.

Coincidence and, maybe a tune gets stuck in someones head and it ends up influencing them during the writing process.

I just dont believe Coldplay need to copy people. If you dont like Coldplay (i dont imagine many do on DJTT) thats cool but they have made some good indie/pop. I mean, you may not like the tune "Yellow" but its a classic song that millions love. I just dont believe they are that dried up or talentless to copy stuff.

Hahaha, I've seen something about that before, but that is fantastically executed!

I heard both songs this morning and it's sad, this is what music is coming to nowadays. This is exactly why I hate so mainstream artists. I liked coldplay when they first came out but I don't care for them anymore. No originality, no creativity.

Creative process of cold play:
Research for hits outside USA and uk, not very massive but with catchy melodies, then copy, make it sound like well produced and voila
