Chris doesn't strike me as someone who'd lie and try to fool anyone. I believe him when he says that he did give that group credit, but AI edited out that part of his statement. Thus, the audience never heard Chris giving the credit to Live's version.
AI should find the tape that they edited and play it on Tuesday's show to end the uproar.
I heard there's some kind of uproar. I never thought these arrangement were his own, did you? He credited the Red Hot Chili Peppers two weeks ago. Why is everyone so upset?
