Coldplay responds to new accusation of plagiarism

Coldplay

With a lawsuit pending from Joe Satriani and with the watchful eye of cat stevens about the decision that the court will make in this regard, it seems that we have not yet heard the last word on the 'suspicious' similarity of the "viva la vida"Of Coldplay and other slightly older songs.

Will champion, drummer of the accused group, has come out to say that he is too much coincidence that all these accusations happen precisely when the song has been one of the biggest hits for the band...

"It's hard when people accuse you of stealing something that you know isn't true… so we sort of accept that these are things that happen with this fame thing. For some reason, God only knows, the hit tracks are the ones that seem to attract lawsuits from others… the ones accused of being stolen. It's very suspicious"He said.

"There are elements in our music that I have heard in other people's, but this is something… I don't know how to express it. There are only eight notes in an octave and no one owns them…and there are 12000 songs that probably have the same guitar chord progression.
We are confident... we have not done anything wrong
"He added.
