Bob Lind's Message Board

I was just listening to Bob's demo recording of this, not having done so in a long time, and was thinking it sounded familiar. I finally realised that the tune is almost exactly the same as "Exeter (the Wedding Waltz)", except with a different time signature, viz. 4/4 time instead of 3/4 waltz time.

Are there any other instances where Bob has reused the melody and/or lyrics of one song in another?

I never noticed!

I do find myself humming the same melodies of songs I've made up (or at least *think* I've made up) over and over in different contexts and patterns.

Like George Harrison's "My Sweet Lord" & "He's So Fine ?"

Never noticed either !! ...Why care ?

Who said I care? I just thought it was an interesting observation, that's all.
