[edit] Elbow and Coldplay
While both bands have mutual admiration for one another... including an interview of the Elbow conducted by Chris Martin [1], they've never mentioned being actual influences on each other's music. --Madchester 19:43, July 23, 2005 (UTC)
- To the contrary: "Fix You" from X&Y "came directly from [Cast of Thousands's] 'Grace Under Pressure'." -Simon Crowley 22:33, 23 July 2005 (UTC)
- "Talk" is obviously derived from "Computer Love", but besides their intros, "Fix You" and "Grace Under Pressure" don't really sound alike. But a lot of praise from Martin's part. --Madchester 23:15, July 23, 2005 (UTC)
- There is an interview with Guy Garvey from the Times Online that mentions a direct "Grace Under Pressure"/"Fix You" connection, as admitted by Chris Martin. --Cue the Strings 12:04, November 25, 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Elbow and Velvet Underground
John Cale has expressed a liking for Elbow, but can you say Velvet Underground has? --80.41.172.180 14:38, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
I agree, John Cale is not the Velvet Underground - he's John Cale.
- I'm intrigued by this "greatest song of all time" quote - where is the source? And where can I find the song 'Switching Off': it isn't listed in the discography?--GeneralJumbo 17:59, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
- "Switching Off" is from the Cast of Thousands album; you can find the video on YouTube. I'm not sure where one would find the quote from Cale, however, as the article's not explicit about where it came from. María (críticame) 18:21, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
