Has anyone else ever noticed that you can sing the lyrics to the Scooby-Doo theme song to the melody and chords of Mott the Hoople's "Momma's Little Jewel"? Rather changes the mood...
And is there a more blatant example of self-plagiarism in music than "Frosty the Snowman"? Its middle eight is almost exactly the same as the middle of "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" - also written by Johnny Marks, one year earlier. Every time I hear "Frosty," I keep switching in midstream to "Rudolph."
Oh, the embarrassment..."Jeff, we're singing about a goddamned snowman, not a drunken reindeer!"
