scott Posted July 28, 2004 Report Share Posted July 28, 2004 Okay, who here has heard the song "Learn To Live"(or somethin' like that) by Switchfoot, when I heard it I thought that the guitar riff (which everyone sais is 'so awesome!') was ripped off of something, but I couldn't quite place it....but I was just listenin' to the Foo Fighter's album 'The Colour and The Shape' (easily their best work) and I finally figured out where they stole the riff from!!! Hey, Johnny Park! (that's the name of the song) So there. corporate pop rock=0 me=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aunt_Acid Posted July 29, 2004 Report Share Posted July 29, 2004 Looks like the Foo Fighters have a lawsuit on their hands! Maybe they'll let you in on a cut of the money, since you pointed it out to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they'll let you in on a cut of the money, since you pointed it out to them. Or maybe they will just sue the Hell out of them and say they realized the copycat guitar riff the whole time.

scott Posted July 29, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2004 It was a 'personal' thing for me, because I knew I recognized the riff, but I couldn't figure out what it was from, so next time I hear someone listening to it, I can just pop out 'The Colour and The Shape' and show 'em the 'real song' that they ripped it off of.

Aunt_Acid Posted July 29, 2004 Report Share Posted July 29, 2004 Have you ever noticed that pieces of the solos in Time and Comfortably Numb have some of the same riffs? At least it was the same band. I can't stand when some band rips-off a song from an earlier, usually, much better band. I saw this saying on the side of a Mike's Hard Lemonade: If you're going to be original, you can count on being copied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
