Sometimes the ripoff is a tip of the hat and sometimes it sounds better.

If nothing else at least someone is talking about Gordon Lightfoot again (besides Art Bell).

You're right! (about MC Hammer) I always thought he stole After the Fire's The Commodore's in Town. So maybe AFter the Fire scooped Rick James too..
