Aloha !

I know, I noticed it for the first time. It's not the first time they used this sort of melody. Lonely At The Top and Hearts Braking Even have the same pattern at some point. And Bells Of Freedom is simply the worst.

Anyway:

[Krycek mode on]It might be possible to sing it on the same melodies but they're very different songs and in no means a rip off of themselves. This Ain't A Love Song is a great quality song about the departure of your love and Bells Of Freedom is a top notch song about freedom. Very different! And imagine this: You've written top quality songs for more then 20 years and write another quality song on your latest album that's the best in years. Sure, it's possible that it sounds like some of your previous stuff, but does it matter? It's very, very great music, and that's what counts for me![Krycek mode off]

Salaam Aleikum,
