Coldplay accept asperous absorb contravention claims over the accomplished two years, if Joe Satriani, Cat Stevens and an abstruse indie bandage all claimed antecedent of "Viva la Vida." Now, Chris Martin and Co. are adverse their a lot of absurd accusation yet, via a man called Sammie Lee Smith who claims the bandage ripped off his music for their hits "Clocks," "Trouble" and "Yellow," according to TMZ. In the lawsuit, Smith claims that back 1976, he's recorded almost 4,000 songs on 100 tapes, and three selections from these clandestine sessions anguish up on Coldplay albums. Smith is allurement the accumulation to stop assuming those songs, additional requesting some budgetary compensation, of course.

We were able to append our atheism if it came to the Satriani lawsuit because, about absurd it was that Coldplay in fact heard Satriani's "If I Could Fly" afore penning "Viva La Vida," it still was hardly conceivable. If the Brooklyn indie bandage Creaky Boards alleged that Coldplay ripped off their song "The Songs I Didn't Write" for "Viva" afterwards Chris Martin allegedly saw the bandage in concert, it was analogously absurd but carefully possible. But Smith is alleging that Coldplay blanket songs off cassette tapes that the bandage couldn't accept heard. We're no attorneys but we're traveling to book this up to a "well-talented but unknown" Smith just aggravating to absolute some absorption his way afterwards 35 years of recording.
