Really? It is only like 3 seconds but when the song was over I immediately put on dotus to figure out which song it was

Oh, no, sorry, I thought we were talking about "Got Some". It may well be similar to "Rusty" but I can't remember... I'll have another listen.

Listening now. I can hear the angular similarity in the riff, and the intro, but other than that, the rhythm is entirely different. It's half the tempo MFS is...

I just found the Alanis Morrissette song that Ed's quick-fire lyric delivery reminded me of: "Front Row". Not the melody (which is closest in the intro) but the rhythms of the words against the song.

A rip off of dusty is a pretty ridiculous statement.

It is 3 seconds, but it sounds the same. I don't care. There are millions of songs. Parts are similar. But it is there

I'm finally getting into this one. Acquiring an uncensored FLAC version has aided that immensely.

This makes sense and I agree the 3 seconds is similar but it leads to blanket statements like this

A shitload of songs have the same intro, even Soundgarden ripped it off.

I think that is a playful Soundgarden reference.

Yeah, that's stupid, but people are entirely too eager to play that silly 'rip off' game

I did got a Soundgarden vibe from this song too. Not a specific SG song, but the band in general. I still love this track though. One of my top 5 on the record. 5 stars.

I don't mind people playing the ripoff game, as long as PJ's entire catalogue is included, as well as the greatest "ripoffs" in rock history.

Good point, if anyone came up with this introduction it was probably Matt.
