Sum 41 blatantly rips off Coldplay

Click

Sum 41's Pieces is nearly identical to Coldplay's The Scientist chord for chord, chorus for chorus. Only thing excepted is basic melody and lyrics. The link at the top contains a link in which you can listen to both songs overlapped, and hear the similarities. Its not a coincidence, it is definately a ripoff.

Almost as bad as Vanilla Ice's stunt. I still like a bit of Sum's older stuff. But now I cant stand them at all. Plus, this little bit of info has cost them my respect too.

Re: Sum 41 blatantly rips off Coldplay

Ripoffs = all music.

When I come around (Green Day) = Glycerine (Bush)
= No one Else (Weezer) = tons of other songs with that exact same chord progression

I think it's touch to avoid ripping off artists any more in some way or another. Any chord progression you can think of has already been used somewhere, for sure, it's just a matter of making it sound different.

Who cares. The Coldplay version is better, anyways.

i'd also like to say that there are only so many notes you can make music with. 436,456 people has prolly thought of those same chords in some way or fashion.

Re: Sum 41 blatantly rips off Coldplay

It's weak that a mainstream band would steal from another mainstream band. Did they think no one would notice?

Re: Sum 41 blatantly rips off Coldplay

prob

I don't know if anyone else knows this, but like, 5 of Nickleback's songs are exactly the same, but with differant lyrics, I have an mp3 with two of their most popular songs played one paned right, the othe left, and it's freaky.

Anyone else got it?

Check this out. Metallica lyrics(From 1986)
2. Master Of Puppets

End of passion play, crumbling away
I'm your source of self-destruction
Veins that pump with fear, sucking darkest clear
Leading on your deaths construction
Taste me you will see
more is all you need
you're dedicated to
how I'm killing you

Come crawling faster
obey your Master
your life burns faster
obey your Master
Master
Master of Puppets I'm pulling your strings
twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name, `cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master
Just call my name, `cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master

Needlework the way, never you betray
life of death becoming clearer
Pain monopoly, ritual misery
chop your breakfast on a mirror
Taste me you will see
more is all you need
you're dedicated to
how I'm killing you

Come crawling faster
obey your Master
your life burns faster
obey your Master
Master
Master of Puppets I'm pulling your strings
twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name, `cause I'll hear you scream
Master

Just call my name, `cause I'll hear you scream

Master, Master, Where's the dreams that I've been after?
Master, Master, You promised only lies
Laughter, Laughter, All I hear and see is laughter
Laughter, Laughter, laughing at my cries
Hell is worth all that, natural habitat
just a rhyme without a reason
Neverending maze, drift on numbered days
now your life is out of season
I will occupy
I will help you die
I will run through you
Now I rule you too

Come crawling faster
obey your Master
your life burns faster
obey your Master
Master
Master of Puppets I'm pulling your strings
twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name, `cause I'll hear you scream
Master

Just call my name, `cause I'll hear you scream

Sum41 lyrics(from obviously later then '86
End of passion play, crumbling away

Come crawling faster
Obey your Master
Your life burns faster

Re: Sum 41 blatantly rips off Coldplay

So, it seems this isn't the first song Sum41 has essentially ripped off. And, I'd love to hear the Nickelback songs played together. Boy, do they stink.

I was simply stating the fact they didn't come up with the lyrics, but still played the song. It would be different if a small band like a local band did because they haven't been around long enough to have there own lyrics for a whole nights worth of playing. When a huge band, like sum41, takes a song that another huge band, metallica, Nickelback, Coldplay etc. made. You see?
