I cant think of anything off the top of my head, other than what i listed above. I'd say 'Under the Skin' was the first time I felt like he did something moderately different than previous work.

As I'd posted before...


Well, there's a few similarities betwen Tango... & ...Cradle tunes, besides the major pair already mentioned:

"You & I, Part II" / "Soul Drifter"

"Family Man" / "Surrender The Rain" (STR is a slowed down version of FM)

"Caroline" / "This Is The Time"

And, you can add "Tango In The Night" to the "I'm So Afraid/Frozen Love/Murrow" cloned solo.

And, kudos to bucklind17 for recognizing the "Stephanie/Eyes Of The World" riff during "Bang The Drum". That one isn't as obvious and not too many people catch that one.

And, the obvious lyrical pilfering between "I Know I'm Not Wrong" & "Not That Funny" as well as "You Do Or You Don't" & "Bleed To Love Her".

But, then, it's not just Buckingham...listen to Pete Townshend's early work with The Who...there's a ton of themes & lyrics he used on individual songs that reappear as major themes (and slightly altered lyrics) in Tommy & Quadrophenia, too.
