False plagiarism allegations may cause Coldplay to think twice about covering other musicians in the future, but that doesn’t mean other bands aren’t anxious to cover Chris Martin’s tunes. Specifically, The Kooks who recently broke out this ace take of “Violet Hill” on Jo Whiley’s Radio 1 show. (This is really shaping up to be a cover-centric Monday, n’est-ce pas?)
