Hi people... first of all, sory 4 my english (I know that’s not so good, but I will make my best effort) A couple of days ago I was working at my office, and I heard a song broadcasted via an internet radio... my surprise came when I thought I was listening to “Spegelboll” in an Argentinian Radio... “something must be wrong here” thought. A bigger surprise came when I read in the status bar of windows media player that what I was listening to Atomic by Blondie... No one here in the rox world noticed the similarity between these songs? I don’t know anything about chords or arrangments, but at first “sight” these songs are veeery similar to me (and my friends, who listened too, thinks the same)
So... what do you think?

Yes, there are some similarities between these songs, especially guitars and the first 10 seconds sounds same. But I think many fans already knew this, cos Per himself has said he love Atomic song. But it’s not too much same kind of like.
