Plagiarising Creeps
2008 November 21
Every time Radiohead’s ‘Creep’ is played on the radio, Albert Hammond Jr’s Dad gets a royalty payment. That’s because he was originally granted a co-songwriting credit on the song, owing to its similarity to The Hollies’ The Air That I Breathe’, which he co-wrote in 1973.

Another thing you never knew about the strokes.
No 31 – They are fucking shite. Is this it? Indeed.
Although that Hollies song is ace.
The Strokes are the most exciting band of this century. Radiohead are just thinking about touring an album they releases a year ago. Ken. Who even gives one. Apart from ‘Q Magazine’ which is about a rocknroll as piece on jam.
Are you drunk?
No. And who are you ‘Admin’? Huh? Show yourself. You are like the Phantom Flan Throwwer from Tiswas. Coward.
who is fuck is this ‘Admin’ character?
