吉他英雄Joe Satriani指控Coldplay抄袭其作品
http://www.guitarschina.com/joe/pic/crystal_joe.jpg新浪娱乐讯 Coldplay乐队树大招风，似乎所有人都想从他们这里能分得一杯羹。早在今年6月份的时候一只名不见经传的来自美国布鲁克林区的名为Creaky Boards的乐队，曾站出来宣称Coldplay的新专辑主题歌《Viva La Vida》抄袭了他们的作品。而如今又有一个人站了出来，同样指责Coldplay的这首歌抄袭了他的作品，而这个人正是著名吉他大师Joe Satriani。
Joe Satriani于上周四正式向洛杉矶法院提交了诉讼书，指控Coldplay乐队的歌曲《Viva La Vida》抄袭了他在2004年发表的器乐作品《If I Could Fly》。Joe希望Coldplay赔偿所有损失，由于索赔的数额将可能非常巨大，Joe额外要求法官请来会计师来助一臂之力。
有着"吉他巫师"之称的Joe Satriani，曾是Kirk Hammett(金属乐队主音吉他)和Steve Vai(听歌)等多位知名吉他手的师傅。Joe Satriani的吉他演奏技术高超并独具一格，将以吉他为主的现代音乐引入一个全新的纪元，是世界上无数吉他手乃至吉他爱好者所膜拜的对象。

新浪娱乐讯 Coldplay 酷玩 乐队的抄袭门事件，近日又有了新的进展。“吉他巫师” Joe Satriani 于上周四正式向洛杉矶法院提交了诉讼书，指控Coldplay乐队的歌曲《Viva La Vida》抄袭了他在2004年发表的器乐作品《If I Could Fly》之后，终于首次打破沉默谈论此事。
Joe Satriani在接受Musicradar.com采访时，强调如果不是C乐队对此事的忽视态度，自己其实并不想把此事搬上法庭。
“每个人都认为我心怀怨恨，存心不放过酷玩的小子们，我压根没去考虑这一点。我只是我在做，我作为一个艺人需要去做的事，去保护我的作品，我的心血。在这件事的处理上，我做了许多来避免一切上庭的可能。但是Coldplay乐队对此事一直不表态，也许他们认为这个名不见经传的小吉他手闹闹就过去了，想就此息事宁人。但是此次涉及到的是我的原创作品的剽窃问题，我认为这不是件小事。并且我想所有人也应该认为这不是件小事。”
Satriani说他第一次听到Coldplay乐队的单曲《Viva La Vida》的时候就意识到自己的作品被抄袭了。
“那感觉就好象被一把匕首直刺入胸膛，疼痛非常。”他说，“再听第二遍的时候，我确定那就是我的《If I Could Fly》。”
在《Viva La Vida》发行之后，我的邮箱立刻被人们的邮件淹没，他们说：“伙计，你听了Coldplay乐队新歌没有，他们抄袭了你啊。”这么多人都注意到了两手歌曲的相似，我想这是在明显不过了。
Coldplay乐队至今没有对吉他大师Joe Satriani的言论采取任何回应。

[ 本帖最后由 小兵吉他 于 2008-12-9 23:14 编辑 ] 还真是像啊.... 这件事情好像很火，也上了GW头条。转一个Satch关于这场官司的采访，
As previously reported on MusicRadar, Joe Satriani is suing Coldplay, claiming the UK band's Grammy-nominated song Viva La Vida uses one of his melodies.
In court papers filed on 4 December 2008, Satriani's legal team alleges Viva La Vida, the title track of Coldplay's current album, copies "substantial original portions" of his song If I Could Fly.
Satriani's song was included on his 2004 album Is There Love In Space?
Speaking exclusively to MusicRadar on 6 December, Joe Satriani recalls the exact emotion he felt when he first heard Coldplay's Viva La Vida.
"The second I heard, I knew..."
"I felt like a dagger went right through my heart. It hurt so much," Satriani says. "The second I heard it, I knew it was If I Could Fly."
As it turned out, Satriani wasn't the only one who noticed the similarity between If I Could Fly and Viva La Vida.
"Almost immediately, from the minute their song came out, my e-mail box flooded with people going, 'Have you heard this song by Coldplay? They ripped you off man.' I mean, I couldn't tell you how many e-mails I received.
"Everybody noticed the similarities between the songs. It's pretty obvious. It's as simple as that - when you listen to a song and you say, 'Wow, that's a real rip-off.'"
What makes the situation especially painful for Satriani is that If I Could Fly isn't just any song. It's a composition he'd been laboring over for well over 10 years before he recorded it.
"I started writing it on the Flying In A Blue Dream tour back in 1990. But because of the way I write, sometimes songs take a while, as this one did. In 2003 I started demoing it in earnest. I played it on the acoustic guitar on a demo so I could sing the melody, then I demoed it on electric to get the sound. And the performance turned out to be so spontaneous, so right and so emotional, that it wound up being a keeper."
Satriani feels "really hurt"
Since If I Could Fly came out in 2004, Satriani has been gratified by the reaction it's received from his fans, many of whom have called it one of his most captivating songs.
"That was the intent all along," he says. "It was a love letter to my wife, Rubina – a simple, direct expression of feeling.
"That's what really hurts about this whole thing. That I spent so long writing the song, thinking about it, loving it, nursing it, and then finally recording it and standing on stages the world over playing it - and then somebody comes along and plays the exact same song and calls it their own."
Since it was announced on 4 December 2008 that Satriani is suing Coldplay for alleged plagiarism, seeking a jury trial and "any and all profits" connected to Viva La Vida, his life has been turned upside down.
"This has been the weirdest thing I've ever been involved in," he says. "The media attention has been bizarre and surreal. I really can't explain how I've felt over the past day or two."
"I did everything I could to avoid a court case"
Satriani stresses that his motives are ruled by artistic purity and an overriding sense of right and wrong.
"Everybody's assumes I'm trying to go after these guys in Coldplay, as if I'm doing this with malice," he says "That's the furthest thing from my mind. I'm just doing what I need to do as an artist, to protect what's mine, to protect those feelings I put down in song.
"I did everything I could to avoid a court case with this situation. But Coldplay didn't want to talk about it. They just wanted this whole thing to go away. Maybe they figured this little guitar player guy will leave them alone after a while, I don't know.
"But we're talking about a piece of art that I created, and that's something I feel is important. I think everybody should feel that way."
And now, Satriani's team will ask a jury to decide.
