Dublin band Kodaline have tweeted Kellogg's about the similarities between their hit, All I Want, and music used in a new ad for the cereal company. Have a listen to both tunes and tell us what you think.
Taking to Twitter to voice their annoyance, the lads tweeted that nearly choked on their Cornflakes when they saw the ad.
Hey @KelloggsUK we nearly choked on our Cornflakes this morning when we saw your new ad.. #writeyourownsong #whataripoff

— Diana Bunici (@DeeBTweets) June 11, 2014Kellogg's have responded by stating that the song in their ad is an original commission from Hush Music.
A spokesperson for the company also told The Daily Edge that they are "aware of Kodaline's comments on Twitter" and are "looking into the facts".
