Fellow Youtubers responded to an announcement from the rock artist Satriani that Coldplay stole the rhythm to If I could fly (2004) and put it into their song "Viva La Vita". Though most are outraged by this a music cologist Prince Charles Alezandar (probably not spelled right) said that "most songs are all inspired by other songs and it should inspire people to put their their best in their work."

ya there is a point to where some music is inspired but if you listen to both songs you can easily tell that it was plagerized. the rhythm and the melody line are almost identical
