    Tis True, Or Perhaps He Was Walking Past A Music Store Many Years Previous,

    Heard The Tune, And Years Later Recalled Part Of It, With No Wrong Intended...:).

    Yes and no.... He was working in the same genre and it would be hard to not come up with a similar song with similar chord structure, changes and feel. It's not like they played the old mo-town song to death on the turntable in order to get the new song just like it.
