Buckley's rules but he won't get number one, not a chance unfortunately =(
|

What is it with the English charts having re-releases go top 5 year after year? It was Elvis a couple of years back & there has been more that I can't recall off the top of my head right now.

Buckley for No.1!
|
| |
Shiver do sounds somewhat like Buckley
|
| |
everyone surely knows that most of the british pop rock bands in the last 10 years have to some extent tried to emulate jeff buckley or used him for inspiration. muse, radiohead, coldplay, starsailor... keane? etc.
he's an inspiring dude.
|

Buckley inspires me

is this post suggesting that joe satriani is not famous?
cos you're a goddam mouth-breathing retard if you think that nobody knows who joe satriani is. seriously.
|
| |
Who is this "Joe Satriani" you speak of?
|
| |
is this post suggesting that joe satriani is not famous?
obviously not; it's called a joke.
Martin has started joking at gigs when they play an acoustic song or 2 in the stands that Green Eyes was 'written by Joe Satriani, as are most of our songs', and telling people to sing along to Yellow because 'we've only got 2 hit songs, and one of them is about to be taken away by some guitarist'.
|
| |
ok just listened to the Alexendra Burke hallelujah and it is an abortion of a song.
|
| |
HAHAHAHHA coldplay.

i dunno, sounds like sour grapes from coldplay that they got burned for theivery
|
| |
Chris Martin sucks.
|
| |
First Corey Taylor now Buckley? This is more interesting than an episode of Days Of Our Lives...
|
| |
Alexandra Burke's version of Hallelujah ain't half bad, but it's no where near as good as Jeff Buckley's. Mind you, that'd be pretty much impossible.
|
| |
'written by Joe Satriani, as are most of our songs'
LOL that's great.
|
| |
at least they emulated someone good. even so, i still have to say fuck em.
|
| |
satriani isn't as famous as a lot of you guys think he is, if you don't play guitar you have no reason to have heard of him (for the most part)
satriani isn't covered on american idol or anything, and his albums don't go #1.
i do really enjoy chris martins humor about all of this
|
| |

Ya dude, satch is totally known by the world over. He's even more well known than coldplay themselves!!
...
|
| |
also, what does 'mouth-breathing' mean?
you breathe from somewhere else?
|
| |
I still need to check out this Coldplay/Satch business...
|
| |
Wow coldplay sounds retarded lol
|
| |
i really don't know anyone who just listens to satriani thats not a guitar player, not gonna lie. not that they're not out there. i mean yeah he's famous but comparatively i'm sure coldplay have more fans cause theres more fags in the world that listen to coldplay than there are people who care about satch.
|
| |
^
Yeah. Rather unfortunate isn't it?
|
| |
you know how i know satch is gay?
nah i'm just kidding...but seriously
|
| |
dude chris is hilarious.
on the front of the rolling stone i believe it said a quote from Martin saying "we owe our career to radiohead."
and when they were on the tv show called "the hour" they listed off all the songs on a Rush Of Blood To The Head and who they tried to ripoff.
Jeff Buckley is a genious, Slipknot's last cd was great but not good enough to make stupid comments.
And whoever still hates Coldplay after Viva La Vida should not be on this site.
|
| |
I don't even like Coldplay, but I have to give them credit. They certainly know how to spin a situation to their advantage.
And the guitarists here pretending that Satch is this giant name in pop culture really is loltastic.
|
| |
i cannot believe heyseuss has not commented on this yet
|

"And the guitarists here pretending that Satch is this giant name in pop culture really is loltastic."
Hah, I know, right?
Almost as bad as the number of people who call all Coldplay fans "fags". I'd rather listen to them any day than some crappy '80s hair metal guitar wankery. "Oh, but he's so TECHNICALLY sound!" Oh, Satch, still nobody knows who you are, and nobody cares.
And I laugh at the amount of people who think, WITHOUT A SHADOW OF A DOUBT, that Coldplay took that song from Satriani. Coldplay have always owned up to their influences and seem like perfectly nice guys, so wouldn't it be a bit out-of-character to do that? I think the fact that they're joking about it shows how silly they think it is. Of course, it absolutely CAN'T BE POSSIBLE THAT OUT OF ALL THE MUSIC ON THE PLANET, TWO SONGS SOUND VERY MUCH ALIKE.

please don't ever put jeff buckley and slipknot in the same sentence.
|

It's in any case borderline hilarious that Coldplay are joking about ripping off any artist whatsoever as they have never managed to develop a sound of their own, but instead sound like influence x, influence y etc.. in turns.
Doubtful that there's any case of plagiarism here, but Coldplay needs to break up already. They're a band nobody will remember in 15 years time.

Leonard Cohen's original Hallelujah should be no. 1 dammit

seriously, satriani wasn't even the first (or second) person to write that song.
|
| |
Do our members actually think the only way someone would've heard of Satch is by being a guitar player? Really surprised by that series of statements, its pretty clear that's far from the truth. And low and behold, I don't play guitar and I know who the man is...and yes, listens to his music for the sake of listening! What a concept eh..Coldplay is fucking useless, and this is a pretty biased write up for an article posting.
And good point Zuzek, plagerism or not, Coldplay will not be a memorable band when their moment in the sun is over.

I agree. They've only been selling millions for like ten years now. After another five full of success I'll bet no one will ever remember.

the very intro and the chorus:

They sold some records, good for them. I'm not denying the current success of Coldplay because I'm not a moron. I'm also not a seer of any kind and can't see the future. This just wouldn't be the first band to be commercially successful but lacking in anything really strong musically. This Message Edited On 12.22.08
