Aw come on. The similarity is the whole point. Have you ever heard of *homage*? Do you seriously think that it is plagiarism? It's just cheesy homage, not plagiarism. Do you think that Carl Craig is so out of touch that he thinks no one will notice the similarity? Or that he thinks that the Talking Heads are some kind of obscure art rock band? Have you considered the option that he might be a Talking Heads fan? -CF
