post script Having done some simple research that I should have done before, this Coldplay/Kraftwerk connection is a well documented case. Chris Martin claims that he sampled the Kraftwerk song. It’s not a sample, though. If you have the opportunity, listen to the two songs side by side. I love Coldplay, but I still feel as though Kraftwerk should have the upper hand here… They should get something out of this whole thing…  ¶ 11:50 PM
