So I was watching Law and Order the other day while I'm watching some old pearl jam videos on youtube and While I was watching Not For You from SNL 1994, I realized something. Am I the only one who thinks Not For You and the Law & Order song sound eerily similar? I just can't believe it took me this long to realize it.

    I posted a thread a billion years ago on this and I don't think I was the first to say so. Every time I watch that, I hear Not for you. If Coldplay did the song, I'm sure someone would sue them.
    Up here so high I start to shake, Up here so high the sky I scrape, I've no fear but for falling down, So look out below I am falling now, Falling down,...not staying down, Could’ve held me up, rather tear me down, Drown in the river

    After watching that SNL video it occurred to me just how much I'd love it if Matt actually slowed down a bit and they played it at that tempo live these days. :roll:

    And it would sound like poo........because every one else is the band sounds complete different.

    I think they play a lot of songs faster cuz that way Ed doesn't have to fill all of the space w/ his voice anymore...which would be a struggle on the older songs...it blends better

    I disagree.The beginning of Not for you is 4 chords Law and Order has like 6. And they aren't even the same chords for that matter. I could be wrong
