I don't know, next you'll be trying to impress people with my observation that the chord progression in Mussorgsky's Great Gate of Kiev is exactly the same as the bit in Super Mario Brothers 3 when you've defeated a Koopa Kid.

Oh yes. Only tonight I shall be 'the man in the pub with a sock full of loose change'.
That'll larn Munchers to mess with my intellectual property.
