Default She Don't Know Me v. Crazy Train

hehe...that might sound ****ed up but I have just realized that the chorus of She Don't Know me is identical to the main riff of Crazy Train (not the intro!!!) by Ozzy Osbourne. Anyone else noticed the similarity? I mean one is a masterpiece and the other one is a cheesy crappy pop song but still...

Ahh...wasn't meant as a contest though. It's just about the striking similarity. She Don't Know me is a rip-off

Oh! I'll have to listen to the songs and see if I see the similarity. It doesn't come up in my mind or anything, so I'll have to listen again.

I can hear the similarities but I think it just may be a coincidence. The drums pattern is similar and the guitars do a standard walk down on both songs. It's been a while since I've played She Don't Know Me on the guitar. May have to sit and really compare the riffs.

DevilsSon what were you doing when this epiphany came to you? Kind of an odd connection to make. I would love to hear the story.

They didn't write the lyrics but the band came with the music ? Or not ?

Actually, I like She don't know me.

I think it was completely written by someone else, whose name escapes me
