Coldplay have settled their legal dispute with Joe Satriani.
As you'll remember, Satriani accused Chris Martin et al of nicking some of his track 'If I Could Fly' for their song 'Viva La Vida'. Satriani said he'd received hundreds of emails from fans pointing out the striking similarities between the two tracks as soon as the Coldplay song was released, but the Coldplayers denied any wrongdoing saying, "If there are any similarities between our two pieces of music, they are entirely coincidental, and just as surprising to us as to him".
Details of the legal settlement between Coldplay and Satriani are unknown, though it's thought the former may have paid the latter a sum of money, though without admitting any wrongdoing. Either way, Billboard reports that Satriani's lawsuit has been dismissed.
