Title: Similar Coldplay intro to goo song
Post by [Joelage] on Jun 6^th, 2009, 9:34am

Hey all,

I was listening to that Coldplay - Life In Technicolor II song.

Was trying to remember why I found that intro so familiar... in the shower it hit me! Black Balloon has a similar-ish intro...
What do you think?

I've never heard that Coldplay song before. Do you have a sample we could hear?

I actually like this song alot, but I don't really hear too much of a similarity between the two songs' introductions.

Just the timing of the 'guitar' intros... (I know the Coldplay one is like a sitar)

I can hear why you thought they were similar :) If it wasn't a sitar or something I think it would sound more alike

I can totally hear the similarity. Nice catch [Joelage].
