interesting deal I saw on another forum-the melody is the same-watch the youtube comparison,esp. when they mash the two together-a song Satriani did years before this hit single
 
I think satch might have a winning the lawsuit. not that I don't think he should, but it's pretty hard to "prove" that you invented a chord progression and a melody.

35 seconds in. Apparently this was written two years before "If I Could Fly".
 
I don't like the timing of this suit though. Why did Satriani decide to sue Coldplay the day after they got nominated for 7 Grammy Awards?

More money for him if he wins, maybe?

I see your point. I just thought Satriani was better than that.
