Number 4 seed Mitch Benn has a great take on everybody sounding like Coldplay, and has a real chance of winning his division, but 13 seed Embrace has an advantage too: Chris Martin wrote their song "Gravity," and they sounds just like Coldplay-- not a little-- exactly like them. And that freaks me out because I think Chris Martin is trying to franchise the band so they can play multiple venues in the same night, like Midget Kiss.
The videos are below. Vote in the comments section and whomever receives the most votes will move on to the next round.

PS: If you're a big Embrace fan and want to tell me they've been around longer than Coldplay and they are all "mates," that's fine, but it doesn't change the fact that they lifted the Coldplay sound a few years ago.

Embrace. You can't get much Coldplayier than singing a song meant for Coldplay. Plus, I had heard of Embrace beforehand, so they had a name recognition that inherently biases me.

Talent-wise, they seem to be on a pretty even playing field. I'm going with Mitch because at least he wears his pretense on his sleeve

Never been much for parody (outside of Weird Al), so I have to go with Embrace on this one.
