Yusuf Islam, or Cat Stevens to you, has said that while he still thinks Coldplay stole part of his 18 minute song 'Foreigner Suite' for their song 'Viva La Vida', he's not angry about it. Unlike Joe Satriani, who is, of course, accusing Chris Martin et al of the same thing, Islam doesn't think they did it on purpose and isn't planning to go legal on there arses.
Islam (Stevens) told The Sun: "I want them to know that I don't have any ill will towards them. I stand by what I said. They did copy my song but I don't think they did it on purpose. I can understand why they got so upset because they probably don't even realise they have done it. It happens all the time. I have even copied myself without knowing I have done it. I'll write down what I think is a new melody and then listen back to it and realise it's the same as something I have already done. It's just one of those things and I don't want them to think I'm angry with them. I'd love to sit down and have a cup of tea with them and let them know it's OK".
