I'm actually getting in to the Ashcroft record, not bad. But while listening to Track 2 "I Get My Beat", it sounds unmistakably like Silver Girl.

Am I crazy? Just how much did Lindsey take from this guy? I'm cool with sampling, but taking at least three songs from one record seems like overkill. What's going on here?
It'll have been Stevie who took the melodies. She writes the chord progressions. And of course, the songs you've mentioned to sound like songs off Say You Will.
