 everyone rips off kraftwerk.  Kraftwerk was been sampled to death, but I ain't mad Afrika Bambaataa LOL  . Oldplay tries to pass themselves off as legitimate Singer/ songwriter band. I guess they figured Computer Love was an obscure enough song that no one would notice if they "borrowed" the melody. BTW, I'm not splitting hairs about band comparisons either, but I agree with you that they were initially compared to Radiohead, then they started acting like U2 with the last couple of albums. Generally Oldplay Suck Rocks | |
