Wish You Were Here stolen

The other day i was at my friends house while he was playing the latest album from the crappy Australian rock band: Jet. A track came on called Move On and i realised the song had stolen the entire wish you were here riff and passed it off as an original song! Even hte fuzzy radio at the begining was replicated. I dont believe they should turn a classic song into poor pop rock and pass it off as original material.

I'll have to listen to that to fuel my flames of hatred for Jet.

Are you kidding?? This song sounds nothing like Wish You Were Here!

they are heavily influenced by classic rock musicians.

"Look What You've Done" reminds me alot of "Sexy Sadie," as well as "Roll Over D.J." is similar to "Takin' Care of Business."

Is the song on there album?

In Norwegian, the topic says (translated): "The Wish You Were Here Chair". ^_^

teehee..

Excuse me, but if you don't like the band at least don't resent them for being Australian. Plus, they're a good band. and Wing'd is right, they are heavily influenced by that sort of stuff.

cheers

Dave Gilmour also ripped off "Wish You Were Here," with "Lost For Words." If you can't plagiarize yourself, who can you plagiarize?

John Fogerty would have to agree with you.

I don't think I can take hearing "Are you gonna be my girl?" another time!

Yeh jet are crap. Dont listen to them. The fact they are australian makes them even worse.

You have a problem with Ozzies?

Yeh they're all gay

Hmm you'll probably get banned for this, since the beloved Mod Sydney happens to be from Australia herself.

I was only jokin why you gettin so tetchy about it?
