Sarzo redux!


Okay, quick, go get the mp3's of The Pains of Being Pure at Heart's "The One" and "All Die Young" by the Smith Westerns, both of which are new(ish). I'll wait.


Got them? Good. Now play them back to back.


[waiting noise...]


Okay, now - notice anything?


Could it be that both of these have a prominent lick inside them that is nicked from "Cum On Feel the Noize?" In particular the "wild, wild, wild" descending vocal melody.


Yes, I know it's actually a Slade song. Stop it.
