Belle and Sebastion vs. Charles in Charge

This one has bugged me for years. There’s a little trumpet solo at the end of this Belle and Sebastion track that has reminded me so much of the Charles in Charge theme!

    Hey, so, you need to fix your e-mail in your “About” section, you either forgot the e-mail name or made it unclear as to what the first part is :) .

    I have a song, that is driving me freaking NUTS. It’s by Manchester Orchestra – The Procession. This guitar sounds PRECISELY like an Our Lady Peace song (I think) and I can’t find it! If you get a chance, give it a listen, i’d be very curious to see if you could nail the similarity.

    Also, awesome that you have a site dedicated to something that I am always thinking about.

    To me, that Belle and Sebastian ending sounds a lot like Tracey Ullman’s “They Don’t Know”, released in 1883.

    That is a Kirsty MacColl song. It is very sad that tracey Ullman made such a horrible cover of it.

    My niece just pointed out that it also sounds like “Kiss the Girl” from the Little Mermaid!
