Does new Train Song sounds like" When last I spoke to Carol"

[MarioTheMexMozFan]

Just watching VH1 before going out, the new video for a new Train song comes on and the beginning sounds exactly like "When last I spoke to Carol" there's also a Mariachi Trio and one of them looks like a Morrissey wanabe, with a big pompadour and attitude, holding a big guitar.
coincidence? I don't think so! check it out and let me know if I am right.
I don't know the name of the song/video and I really don't care...

I think they both use Mariachi elements in the music but they don't really sound that close. Going to listen to "Ring of Fire" now, though.

God. Train sucks.

What Skylark said

I still remember back in...2001, when they won "Best Hard Rock Performance" for that horrid "Teardrops from Jupiter" song or whatever it was called. There wasn't ONE f***ing guitar in the entire song. It was a big cheesy AOR string section oversaturating the entire four minutes

There fake music in your mind???

It can't be worse than that awful, ubiquitous song with the ukulele that they made a few years ago - can it?

I heard this song a few weeks ago and I was surprised how much the intro sounded like When Last I Spoke To Carol.
To be fair it is a catchy song...

Hey Mario you got something there . I does sound similar but I think it is just a random match . Funny video . By the way, I did find myself singing 'Hey Soul Sister' (by Train) to my self many times last summer. May-be it was because I heard it so much on the radio while out and about BUT it was a clever tune. Thinking of their other songs ............... I kind of dig them !
