This one is for all of you lovers out there. Koen submitted this and pointed out the similarity of the bridge in Coldplay‘s 2005 “Talk” and Killing Joke‘s 1985 “Love Like Blood”. Enjoy!

    I think that this track was given to coldplay for a remix, yeah its the same but at least its not a full out copycat

    Not only that, Coldplay’s “Talk” is basically a “re-imagining” of Kraftwerk’s “Computer Love” (permission granted by Kraftwerk)

    I think Killing joke sued Nirvana for the guitar work in “Come as You Are”. Similar to Killing Jokes song “Eighties”

    Thanks for the comment. Killing Joke did in fact sue Nirvana but dropped it. I have it posted here:
