I'm tethered to the logic of Homo Sapien

[venta]

I've just heard a song on the radio. Something that sounded like an inferior girl band, and from a bit of googling, I think it might have been Unemployed In Summertime by Emiliana Torrini.

Does anyone know this ? Can anyone confirm or deny that it's a blatant rip-off of Quicksand by David Bowie ?

Alternatively, has anyone heard anything recently that sounded like a rip-off of Quicksand, in which case what was it ?

Update: Hmm. Spelling Emiliana correctly when you google provides one hit that suggests Bowie might have co-written in. Or maybe that's sarcasm :)

Though if they used the instrumental track from Quicksand they might have had to give Bowie co-writing credit. I'm still not entirely certain how these things work.
