SO I have this wise and learned friend. He is the one who introduced me to ‘Mexican Radio’ by Wall of Voodoo. After hearing it, I bounded up to him and went ‘this sounds a bit like ‘My Generation’!’
‘The song by The Who?’ he asked.
‘Yes!’ I nodded earnestly.
‘Stuff and nonsense,’ he replied. ‘I’ve listened to both songs COUNTLESS times and have never noticed a similarity. Your ears are dysfunctional.’*
Shortest sound clip ever, I AM NOT CALLING PLAGIARISM, I am just saying there is SOME similarity and it may just be two notes BUT. IT’S. THERE.
Enjoy the next 8 seconds.
