I'm glad the Phantom allusion is being addressed. I've been wondering. LOVE Rufus! Love this album!

Webber was sued by for allegedly stealing the theme from Ray Repp's 1978 song Till You but the judge ruled against Repp. (As an aside: Roger Waters suspects Webber stole from him too) But given the Vincent Price quality of Sian's voice and the river and other words, I would venture to say Rufus intended to reference Phantom.

it's basically just a chromatic scale anyway, hardly the most unique 5 notes in music history.

--the bombastic horns & stings of Release the Stars make him seem like the bull in the baroque pop china shop. A relatively unadorned tune like Going to a Town is refreshing for its simplicity, though rare for its restraint. If there are times as with the Phantom of the Opera quote on Between My Legs that the theatrics are hammy. Im havin trouble posting the link though or whole review sorry!

Yeah, I noticed the phantom of the opera thing, I do hope he's admitted that it's stolen :p I think he used some phantom music on another song on release the stars too, but I can't remember which.
