Wow! Is it just me, or does the start of the Del Amitri track sound just like Counting Crows?

Five out ‘cast suggestions come to mind:
Boom, Boom (Out Go the Lights) as a possible “guilty pleasure”?
We Gotta Get Out of This Place – The Animals: though there are also a number of great covers…
Take Me Out To the Ballgame: Though this might seem a goofy request, the (instrumental) version released by Doc & Merle Watson is unbelievable!
Out on the Weekend – Neil Young
Out of Time – The Rolling Stones: from their early years, and one of my favorites.

Hey, Erik — which Counting Crows song are you referring to in your comment up top? I don’t hear anything reminiscent of CC when I listen to “Roll To Me,” but then I’ve listened to a lot more Del Amitri than I have Counting Crows.

Hi, Pat:
I’ve never heard Del Amitri before, and really don’t know anything about Counting Crows (other than what I’ve heard on the Shrek 2 soundtrack). I was commenting on the general sound, rather than a particular song. Then again, it’s probably just me… ;^)
