I was listening to “It’s All Too Much” and immediately thought of the main guitar riff in Michael Jackson’s “Black or White”. If you have never seen the video starring Macaulay Culkin and George Wendt I would highly recommend checking it out below 🙂

A comparison is often made between Hurt So Good by John Mellencamp and Black or White.
I just came across a comparison made between Black or White and Dirty Boulevard by Lou Reed (1989).
But these songs are just resolving suspended chords.
That’s what I’ve always said. And the first melody line is from The Moody Blues (“Tuesday Afternoon”).
