Charlie Brown/ Spanish Rain

birdman987 · 03-10-2011, 09:33 AM

Same song, much?

para-para-parrotdies · 03-10-2011, 09:36 AM

Don't see it (although Spanish Rain is a direct ripoff of Bruce Springsteen's Dancing in the Dark)

birdman987 · 03-10-2011, 09:41 AM

Well maybe not exactly the same song, but I thought there were some strong similarities.

trinest · 03-10-2011, 09:52 AM

I don't really see many simlaties. Lyric wise the songs are structured complelty different and music wise it doesn't really feel as Charlie Brown- though I probably would only say a few notes are shared.

birdman987 · 03-10-2011, 10:01 AM

Now that I think about it, the only similarities I thought of before posting were basically that they made me want to go 'ole ole ole' haha

How awkward, should think again before starting threads.
Soz guys lol.

Don't feel bad, it made me look into the song (I know the name, but really I couldn't put name to tune) and remember how awesome it is.

birdman987 · 03-10-2011, 11:54 AM

Yeah, its a sick tune. Especially within the context of the tour.

Alien Radio · 03-10-2011, 07:14 PM

Err, no, it's not the same song.

The moment I first heard Charlie Brown live, I was reminded of Don Quixote/Spanish Rain. Now that I've heard the studio version, I maintain my belief that Charlie Brown is either the direct evolution of Don Quixote/Spanish Rain, or at least borrows some elements, because I just can't hear Charlie Brown without thinking of it. And I loved Don Quixote/Spanish Rain, so that I at least got Charlie Brown is quite heartening.

I was only thinking this myself the other day, and i havent even heard the studio version yet.

Unfortunately comparing Spanish Rain to Charlie Brown is comparing Charlie Brown to a song that was unintentionally copied from Bruce Springstein's Dancing in the Dark. They probably scrapped Spanish Rain as soon as someone pointed it out...
