Story which has been circulating in the wake of the NFL Superbowl is the claim a yoghurt ad has stolen or "plagiarised" the music playing in the commercial from JBT's "Zebra".
What do you reckon? Blatant copy or coincidence?

If Men at Work lost their case then this one should be in the bag.......

yup that is a slowed down version of Zebra

Joe Satriani and Coldplay settled it out of court.... I think joe gets some $$$$'s somewhere out of it .

Artists have been ripping off other artists for years !!!

Change the chord structure and you might hàve a chance to get away with it .... This does not change the structure of the song at all !!!
