Does anyone else think the melody in "Brother Can You Hear Me?" Sounds like the melody in the song Jaws of Heaven by Spocks Beard?

Can't say since I'm not a SB fan, but it wouldn't surprise me in the least.  Lately, DT seems to sound like anybody but DT imo.

If you're referring the vocal melody in the beginning of both songs then yes there is a similar rhythm to it.

Rush,  Hemispheres.  This has been discussed before.

It's when the vocals start in Jaws of Heaven. The vocal melody reminds me a bit of the Brother Can You Hear Me? Theme. The same with Rush, but that's well known.

Yeah, it's at like the 0:13 second mark when the vocals start and it's a bit similar to the overall melody of BCYHM

Heard both Jaws of Heaven and Hemispheres dozens of times but the thought never crossed my mind.

Regardless of whether I hate it or not, DT still sounds way too much like other bands.

And yet you genuflect to Haken, who sound more like other bands than DT does (DT even being one of them!).  Weird.

Brother, Can You Hear Me ? Sounds like a song from church. Don't know who would have heard it here.

Yeah, and you genuflect to DT in the Haken thread and now your bringing up Haken in the DT thread.  You can't tell whether you're coming or going.   :lol

Not a great version - but whenever I hear Brother Can You Hear Me - I think of this.

I think you still don't realize the irony in your earlier statement, which is why you responded with sarcasm.
