1. I think the similarity is pretty obvious.

  2. It's very, very obvious!

    Paul Rose copied U2.
  3. I can hear it, but it's not really that much of The Fly's solo that's similar. Just the first few notes. The bass sounds a little like the riff.

  4. Some of the comments are pretty funny.
  5. Similar? Definitely. Copied? Nah, come on. They aren't that alike - if anything the Paul Rose song is more reminiscent of live performances of The Fly than the album version.
  6. Could argue that the song came from Lady With The Spinning Head.
  7. Turgid guitar wankery. Will be laughed out of court.

  8. Just bought it in the Netherlands. I'm happy
