THE THINGS THEY SAY:

'I'm happy for the group, and, in a very weird way, I was happy to hear my melody being celebrated. However, I was slightly confused that NARAS (National Academy of Recording

Arts & Sciences), the organisation which handles the Grammy Awards, would even consider nominating a track which they knew was heavily contested."

Guitarist JOE SATRIANI on hearing his contested sample in COLDPLAY's VIVA LA VIDA hit applauded at the Grammy Awards. The track earned the band a Song of The Year prize. Satriani insists the tune samples his 2004 instrumental If I Could Fly.
