COLDPLAY ACCUSED AGAIN OF PLAGIARISM!!!
Drummer Speaks Out In Band’s Defense!!!

COLDPLAY drummer Will Champion has spoken about the multiple plagiarism accusations the band has faced over the past year. "It's tough when people accuse you of stealing something, when you know that you didn't," Champion told HamptonRoads.com. "So, we accept that it's part of the territory and know it is only for some reason, God only knows why, the successful songs that seem to be the ones that are accused of being stolen. So you go figure it out." He added, "there are only eight notes in an octave and no one owns them. And there are probably about 12,000 songs that feature the exact same chord progression. I think it lies on an intent to steal, which we certainly have never done and never would. So, it's unfortunate but it's the way people are. That's that. We're confident we haven't done anything wrong."
