HAVE ONE DIRECTION STOLEN A SONG FROM THE CLASH???
One Direction have a new single out, 'Live While You're Young':



The opening part of this song bears an uncanny resemblance to a famous song by the Clash, 'Should I Stay or Should I go?', and the riff is used throughout:



Do you think One Direction has copied the Clash riff? If so, why would they do that?

Get your teeth into this on the Survey Board too.....
Does the main riff on the One Direction single sound like the Clash?
Have One D copied the riff?
Musically, which is the best song?
If you were the Clash, would you sue One D?
