Has anyone noticed before if you listen carefully to the guitar riff during the chorus of What To Do, it's where the riff of the track Perfect Remedy comes from.
Not sure if Francis consciously knew he was copying his own riff or not.

Well, I've been listening to the "multitracks" I generated with an AI, and to me the chorus chords from I Saw the Light and What to Do are almost the same, and those are almost the same as Perfect Remedy (same tone, almost same chords). Ask Angus Young the same question about his songs, see what he answers.

Actually listening to I saw the light, is actually Perfect Remedy written all over it.
How did they think we wouldn't notice this?

I actually just played I saw the light again after many years, and it's got Perfect Remedy written all over it, or rather the other way round. How did Quo think we wouldn't notice this?
