At least their attempt at a rock song never went down the American Soul route this time.
it is a bit of an ear worm, isn't it?
Ah yes. The ultimate rock band.?Vertigo almost directly quotes the Supremes
Seemingly vertigo rips off dirty boots by sonic youth? According to rolling stone magazine anyway.Ah yes. The ultimate rock band.?
Nowhere near the Blondie ripoff in the chorus. Or Edge ripping off the Clash in the verses.
I don't think the riff is from the clash,but the power chords during the Atomic City part definitely has London calling vibes.Everything rips everything off. Most times it's unintentional, like when the Stones ended up giving a credit to k.d. Lang.
The Blondie thing? Yea, ok. Sure. Probably unintentional, but the one I'm Free part is quite close to Call Me. Nothing else in the song is, but that part? Yea. They may have to do a Stones / k.d. Lang.
The idea that the riff is ripped off from the Clash is absurd. Name the song it's pulled from. We'll wait.
In reality there are probably hundreds of songs that use the same basic riffs.

Didn’t ThEdge somewhat borrow the Bunnymen riff off Back of Love for In God’s Country?
Some people seem to have a problem with it,dont know why.So people are bent that the admitted Blondie/Clash homage sounds like Blondie/Clash?
Yeah,he does not look impressed! He did wave to the crowd a couple of times though.Just watched a new (to me) video of the performance and wow, Larry does not look happy. Even by Larry standards he looks like he'd rather be literally anywhere else other than on the back of a lorry, doing fake drumming in front of a Vegas casino.
One day he will realise how lucky he is!Yes, not reading anything into it at all, just admiring his devotion to staying in character.
He’s just pissed they ripped off Blondie and he has to act like everything is on the up and up!

Well,going into Friday soon and not a peep about Atomic City being released.Why do they shoot themselves the foot all the time?!
Did you check under the clash?To be thorough, I searched under Blondie on Spotify and didn't see anything either.
Shit, forgot to.Did you check under the clash?
