Coldplay: The group that steals music!

On Fridays I will be going to my iTunes and turning on shuffle and who ever is the artist of the song that plays will be the focus for this blog.
This weeks post is going to be about: Coldplay

Coldplay is an Alternative Rock group from London, England. They are one of the only modern British bands that I listen to. Their songs are good to listen to at home or at a concert when the whole crowd is singing along. I own my favorite parts of each of their albums. I own all of the songs on Mylo Xyloto album, which is their latest one. They released some Christmas songs and I own those too. I also own the vinyl of that album, because I preordered it. I was planning on seeing them in concert when they come to my town, but tickets are pretty expensive.

Coldplay has been caught stealing some songs lately. There has been a lawsuit filled agenst them because a songwritter says they stole some of his music. Sammie Lee Smith says he was the one that composed Yellow, Clocks, and Trouble. This was back in 2010, two years after Viva la Vida was released. Also in September 2009 Joe Satriani accused the Coldplay of stealing a lot of parts of his song If I Could Fly. They denied doing that too. There is also speculation that they stole the main chord design for Every Teardrop is a Waterfall from Peter Allen's I Go To Rio. Every Teardrop is a Waterfall is actually one of my favorite songs by them too. If they really stole from these artist I would be mad, but I would still listen to their music. I mean why not, they are a really good group that will continue to grow no matter what.


It took me a long time to make a final decision what my favorite song by them was, so then I just choose the one I listened to the most on iTunes.

Here is my favorite song by them:


And that is how my iTunes found them while it was on Shuffle!

Preorder Fridays

So last Friday I pre-ordered 2 albums from 2 of my favorite groups. I pre-ordered Mylo Xyloto from Coldplay and God's Not Dead from Newsboys. Mylo Xyloto will be the 5th album I own from Coldplay and God's Not Dead will be the 10th album I own from the Newsboys. I have got a sample of both and they both are really good albums. I really cant wait for Mylo Xyloto to come out,  because I pre-ordered it with the Vinyl and this will be the first Vinyl that I have ever bought. Good thing I have a Record player to play it on. Mylo Xyloto is due to come out October 24th and God's Not Dead is due to come out November 15th.


Until next time,
