I ALWAYS wondered the same thing! I just assumed it was intentional because it's just so blatantly similar...

Haha I'm glad I'm not alone in this. I vote we just jump to the conclusion that it was a rip-off and get the lynch mob started.

*grabs a torch*

It was accidental. Dexter wrote the song, then people said it sounded similar to that beatles song so he listened to it and realised the similarities. Still a crap song though.

Are you serious? That's bizarre... how could you write a song so similar to a Beatles classic and not know...

Wow, he actually said that? :crazy:

I mean, everything I've heard from Coldplay has been a crappy U2 or Radiohead ripoff, but I didn't think they'd ever actually admit it.

Fallout Boy.

They made their own album... then they went hippidy-hop to appeal to them twats, and then moved on to covering MJ, which was terrible, and now their trying some more indie(ish) ****.

It's ridiculous.

Oh, well, explain to me, Oh Lord of music, why my opinion is wrong.
