DOTC: Finkle is Einhorn. Einhorn is Finkle!!

MC43572

About the DOTC teaser, Habit4me said, "I might be the only person in this group that hears it, but give it another listen, and then picture Ed singing Of the Earth over it."

And then igotid88 said, "The 15 seconds does sound familiar. Feel like I've heard it before."

I credit these two individuals for the "Finkle is Einhorn. Einhorn is Finkle!" moment I just had...

Of the Earth is DOTC. DOTC is Of the Earth!

Maybe I'm nuts. Or maybe not. Guess we'll see in a couple hours.

I don't hear Of The Earth

I hear a similar chord progression and rhythm. DOTC is a faster tempo and in a higher key than live performances of OTE, but sheeeeeeeiiiiit, now I can't unhear it. Again, I might be nuts. Or maybe we'll all be plunging our faces soon.

Totally heard it. That was my first thought that maybe OTE had been repurposed.

I mean, I'm not saying I don't catch a resemblance.

Wow - very interesting.  I would be totally okay if this was the first single - renamed. Would tie nicely into the title of the album.  Let’s just hope they didn’t do this with Can’t Deny Me = Buckle Up...
