Hmmm, yeah. Similar chorus. Funny how the intro sounds like Babies too!

Now, this is an interesting one: I just saw a repeat of BBC comedy panel show 'Would I Lie To You?', the signature tune for which is alarmingly Maureen-like.

If anyone's interested, I've done a new song which I think sounds (unintentionally!!) very much like Freaks-era Pulp.
I'd be grateful to know if any of you think it does?
On my myspace, it's the one called 'Decay'.

Oh, & I WILL get around to my Silence cover soon!!!!!!

Is it just me or does "After You" sound a bit like "Same Old Scene" by Roxy Music?

Listen there if you don't believe me. Kicks in about 0:16.


OH MY! Someone else noticed! I was just going to say that.
I've even played both Blake's Seven and We Can Dance Again together and they weirdly fitted together.

Yep - verse = Love Is In The Air, chorus = Blake's Seven.

...and let's not forget an ending with lyrics from Atomic by Blondie.

I've always thought this is where Mile End started - particularly the live, violin heavy versions - but then again, I'm always told that my theories such as this are piffle.
