Buffy in Theme Song Shock

Somedays the world just throws you a curve ball...

OK we all know who wrote the Buffy theme song right?

Given this, you may want to take a listen to THIS CLIP from the song 'Codo' by german band 'Dof', recorded way back in 1983....

Is this the subject of some legal thing with "dof" (great name guys

) trying to get money out of Joss/Nerf Herder?

Or.... ?!?!?

Stoo There are two major products that come out of Berkeley: LSD and UNIX. We don't believe this to be a coincidence.

Dang! That's close, if not identical...

killer Courage was mine and I had mystery, Wisdom was mine and I had mastery...

It does kinda sound the same but I'm guessing Nerf Herder didn't rip it off intentionaly - I mean, just listen to the original dagnamit! It's pure 80's cheese on toast, who'd wanna touch it with an 90ft pole?

Trinity I may have the body of a weak and feeble woman, but I have the heart and stomach of a concrete elephant.

Good lord, that is *quite* scary.

Whistler "I wonder wonder why the wonder falls. I wonder why the wonder falls on me. I wonder wonder why the wonder falls, with everything I touch and hear and see."

Hmm, bit too much of a coincidence, methinks....

Callum Bianca loves you

The opening bars to "Fade away and radiate" by Blondie are also rather similar to the opening bars of the buffy theme.

MaryLou "What else would I wanna pump you for? I really just said that didn't I"

Miss Edith People don't fall in love with what's right in front of them. People want the dream -- what they can't have. The more unattainable, the more attractive. --Xander

Could I just point out the word "coincidence".

Besides if it is a ripoff who cares "ours" is far greater!!
