	Peter Nevins	I think I'm gonna change the title of my upcoming record to "Ocarina of Time". I got a groovy calendar of old 20's blues record covers that a client of mine wanted me to use as inspiration for a design, and right at the top of it, there was a quote at the top, saying, "I've lifted my style from these covers, like I always say, 'Steal from the Best!'- R. Crumb" That's why "Ocarina of Time" is oh never mind, I'm bored of that joke.   Posted by Peter Nevins on Monday, June 02, 2008 - 6:00 AM [Reply to this]

	Rachel Dubb.	stop whining. anyone could have come up with that tune. just because coldplay is doing great with their song, you dont have to complain about them stealing it from you. suck it up, move on, and write another song.   Posted by Rachel Dubb. on Wednesday, June 18, 2008 - 4:44 PM [Reply to this]

	V	i am with you on that one bunch of fools ha   Posted by V on Saturday, June 21, 2008 - 9:15 AM [Reply to this]

	Caleb CALEB Dennis	thank you! :D   Posted by Caleb on Thursday, June 19, 2008 - 5:30 AM [Reply to this]

	Jason	thanks for your two cents, person who has almost certainly never created anything original on her own!!   Posted by Jason on Wednesday, June 18, 2008 - 11:24 PM [Reply to this]

	Rachel Lyndon Zamorski©	So I think everyone I know has now done a comparison and, well, it sounds like Coldplay ripped off your melody. At least you've gotten some publicity from it and more people are now aware of your music. Good luck in your future endeavors.   Posted by Rachel Lyndon Zamorski© on Wednesday, June 18, 2008 - 8:51 PM [Reply to this]

	CHando	Whoa- Cold played. Your original version sounds much better. I get this weird U2 feeling when listing to the coldplay rip. F'in hacks.   Posted by CHando on Wednesday, June 18, 2008 - 11:53 PM [Reply to this]

	Zach "Da" King Zachary King	I gotta say that when I heard about this on the radio, I was stunned. The similarities in your songs are pretty close together. It seems like it's just the chord progression that's the same to me, not really the melody of the song. And that happens to a lot of bands, just not this close together. Take this for example; The Offspring just released a new song called "Hammerhead" and the style, as well as the chord progressions, match up damn close to Motorheads "Ace of Spades". In terms of creativity, both songs are great. But in terms of plagiarism, I think everything has been done. Keep up the good music, guys.   Posted by Zach "Da" King on Thursday, June 19, 2008 - 1:45 AM [Reply to this]

	V	you guys are dum this band stole song from cold play recorded really fast and now they are saying coldplay stole there song just shut up and move on   Posted by V on Saturday, June 21, 2008 - 9:17 AM [Reply to this]

	Caleb CALEB Dennis	my gosh you people are all on stupid pills. this is nothing but a publicity stunt and look, it worked!   Posted by Caleb on Thursday, June 19, 2008 - 5:29 AM [Reply to this]

	Zork!?	Man, a chord progression has been used in two songs! Who would have thought!   Posted by Zork!? on Thursday, June 19, 2008 - 4:24 PM [Reply to this]

	Caleb Caleb Delp	If no one had ever used the same melody as another song there wouldn't be a "dani california" or "are you gonna be my girl." So suck it up, because they made the song better! Quit complaining over some similar notes! We are getting to a point were there is so many melodies out there that it is hard enough not to copy another. Pretty soon we are just gonna be listening to nails on a chalkboard cause that will be the only new origional thing to listen to.   Posted by Caleb on Thursday, June 19, 2008 - 6:43 PM [Reply to this]

	Ryan Ryan Kenney	Ok. ONE. The songs are in two completely different keys. If you had any sense of musical knowlege you'd be able to tell that. TWO. The melodies might be slightly similar at maybe one or two places, but nothing anywhere remotely close enough to think they ripped you guys off. More importantly enough to sue them!! Now. Listen to colplay. And then listen to you guys. There is a REASON their song is bigger than yours. And I'm sure Chris Martin came to america JUST to rip off a little local band's song. Come on. Think logically. Coldplay owns yo' face.   Posted by Ryan on Thursday, June 19, 2008 - 6:54 PM [Reply to this]

	V	i like what RYAN said its true   Posted by V on Saturday, June 21, 2008 - 9:19 AM [Reply to this]

	Kylin	i think its interesting. especially since many people still think Coldplay hasnt entirely earned their status. their isnt going to help their case   Posted by Kylin on Thursday, June 19, 2008 - 8:03 PM [Reply to this]

	Old Moldy Bread	I've heard both songs and I've figured it out. You found a song that is kind of like yours and so you thought "Hey, This is a great opportunity to get our faces known! We can make people think that talented people are copying our crappy song!" Well Bravo.   Posted by Old Moldy Bread on Friday, June 20, 2008 - 12:58 AM [Reply to this]

	raf	I would almost believe you losers if you didn't make shitty ass music. The resemblance is only at the first 4 seconds of your song and its pretty vague at that. Even if Chris Martin did for whatever reason decide to show up at a random bar in New York and steal extremely small sections of a failure of a song from an embarrassingly crappy band like yours (WHICH IS FUCKING IMPOSSIBLE), Coldplay would deserve the credit anyway, for turning a 0.5/10 song into an 8.7/10 known as "Viva la Vida". I will however give you credit for making it into mainstream news media for bullshit claims. Well done, your famous, but not for making great music that will never happen.   Posted by raf on Friday, June 20, 2008 - 7:57 AM [Reply to this]

	Chad Corgan Tyler Lane	Woah, apparently Coldplay fans aren't very nice people.   Posted by Chad Corgan on Friday, June 20, 2008 - 3:03 PM [Reply to this]

	Caleb Caleb Delp	It has nothing to do with being nice. We are just realistic!   Posted by Caleb on Friday, June 20, 2008 - 4:10 PM [Reply to this]

	Caleb CALEB Dennis	agreed.....and even better, you're a caleb.   Posted by Caleb on Tuesday, June 24, 2008 - 11:39 PM [Reply to this]

	Riana.	Bahaha.   Posted by Riana. on Friday, June 20, 2008 - 8:49 PM [Reply to this]

	Paul	Outrageous, but who knows.... if certain companies found out, an amusing court case could emerge.   Posted by Paul on Friday, June 20, 2008 - 10:28 PM [Reply to this]

	Franki Pants ™	whoa that sucks...i guess even coldplay knows that the best music is from the indie circuit so thats why they ripped you off   Posted by Franki Pants ™ on Saturday, June 21, 2008 - 12:42 AM [Reply to this]

	far far away.	gosh..u guys are pathetic! owh u poor thing.. kudos for such a successful lame-fame trick act of yours..now u're famous! haha.   Posted by far far away. on Saturday, June 21, 2008 - 1:22 AM [Reply to this]

	curtis	Congrats....your whining publicity stunt has paid off. You're getting air time on networks like E and G4 for a completely ridiculous reason. Two songs....sound similar?....WHAT?! Shenanigans I say!   Posted by curtis on Saturday, June 21, 2008 - 8:35 AM [Reply to this]

	Kyle	just promise me you will not name your child after a piece of fruit   Posted by Kyle on Saturday, June 21, 2008 - 2:58 PM [Reply to this]

	asleep 陰 陽	haha. i like coldplay better, yeah. but thats funny.   Posted by asleep on Friday, June 27, 2008 - 10:22 PM [Reply to this]

	chelsea	coldplays lyrics are way better!   Posted by chelsea on Saturday, June 21, 2008 - 10:09 PM [Reply to this]

	Micah	You cannot call plagarism on them because the have the same rhythms. They might have one chord in common. They'd only be stealing if it was the same notes and such.   Posted by Micah on Saturday, June 21, 2008 - 10:18 PM [Reply to this]

	In My Spare Time...	I had that Link game when I was a kid, too. Strangely enough, I've never written anything that sounds like either of these two songs. They both sound good to me though, and as others have said soundalike melodies are not that uncommon. When I first heard Green Day's Give Me Novacaine, I realized I'd used the same chords for a song...but so have a lot of other people, I'm sure.   Posted by In My Spare Time... on Saturday, June 21, 2008 - 10:27 PM [Reply to this]

	Las Me	It's funny people are all up in a storm about this. Obviously he made this video because the songs sounded familiar, and he wanted to let his *current* fans know he had written it first, rather than it being a ripoff of a lameass coldplay song. People found it on the net, took it out of context (a joke), and Creaky Boards are getting huge publicity because of it. Anyway, grats guys. Hope this works out for you.

	dave	i saw cold play live, they sucked dick. They took your song. end of story.   Posted by dave on Sunday, June 22, 2008 - 8:44 PM [Reply to this]

	snowflake	punk bitch. what do u kno about music anyway? what makes your opinion valid faggot? chris martin learned piano at a young age, they all grew up together, and you think the indie scene is original. get off the bandwagon fuck a hole in the wall cuz thats the only action you/ll ever get. wtf can you do besides give your worthless opinion? get a life. ps: dont u find it funny that "creaky boards" only decent song is the song they jacked from coldplay? creaky boards? wtf? more like crappy songs. that singer needs to shave his piss ant mustache.   Posted by snowflake on Wednesday, June 25, 2008 - 4:33 AM [Reply to this]

	asleep 陰 陽	theres your answer idiot. u stole a video game song. coldplay kicks ass. ur song sucks. and all u homos prancing about on stage does not rectify the situation. check your player -- YOUR SHIT SONG HAS MORE PLAYS THAN THE REST OF YOUR SHIT SONGS BCUZ OF UR PUBLICITY STUNT. jackass. your copy of martins vocals are shitty. lord knows u stole the zelda music and slapped coldplay/s singing to ur crappy version. if anything, u could at least admit u heard coldplays song and didnt kno it, and in the back of your head u remembered the vocals as u wrote your shitty "song u didnt write." no one else is going to laugh at u if u quit while ur ahead. u got ur cult of followers, now give up before u lose it all.   Posted by asleep on Friday, June 27, 2008 - 10:17 PM [Reply to this]

	Mason	Ouch, you're singing voice is painful. So why would Coldplay just rip off your song knowing you'd cause a stir out of it? THINK. It's a coincidence, even though the songs have no resemblance. Quit whining.   Posted by Mason on Monday, July 07, 2008 - 7:31 PM [Reply to this]
