Is it me or does The Romantics' "Talking In Your Sleep" sound like the caucasian version of Rick James' "Superfreak". Esp. the dum do doo doo doo part after each line in the verse. What do you think?
And isn't their "One In A Million" one of the happiest poper pop tunes of the 80's?

"Der Kommissar" was always accused of lifting "Superfreak"'s riff.

Never thought of that before, but you are right! Almost as obvious as Nirvana stealing the riff from Killing Joke's "Eighties" for "Come As You Are".
