I heard this for the first time the other day and when I was playing it in the living room my mother thought I was playing the new Queens of the Stona Age single. I was completely flabbergasted that she thought it sounded like that and when I finally heard the QOTSA single yesterday I realised that she was right! The melody for the chorus in particular HAD to have been nicked from the chorus of "The Revolutionary Spirit"! It's just too similar for words.
Does anyone else think they owe The Wild Swans a credit? (You can download "The Revolutionary Spirit" from the Renascent label's site, by the way.)
