Was this done consciously?
That is an absolutely brilliant discovery, Adachi-san and I almost wished I had thought of it! But no, I'm afraid I'm not that clever crazy
I also had that "I'm sure I've heard this before" feeling when I was making this cliched little piece (there's very little originality in it and I readily admit that), but it wasn't any sort of conscious allusion or deliberate reference, just purely coincidental. I'm glad you still enjoyed the listen, and I thank you for your positive comments.

p.s. I don't think you could be "rude" even if you tried! laugh
