Conspiracy theory nutters
I keep getting collared by a bloke who says that the war in Afghanistan is a cover for our Illuminati Freemason Shapeshifting Lizard masters to corner the market in mind-bending drugs. "It's true," he says, "I heard it on TalkSport". Tell us your stories of encounters with tinfoil hatters.
Thanks to Davros' Granddad

The most obvious evidence in favour of this is the uncanny similarities between parts of Pink Floyd's "Echoes" (released 1971) and the main theme of "Phantom of the Opera" (released 1986).
As Roger Waters remarked at the time, "Yeah, the beginning of that bloody Phantom song is from Echoes. *DAAAA-da-da-da-da-da* . I couldn't believe it when I heard it. It's the same time signature - it's 12/8 - and it's the same structure and it's the same notes and it's the same everything. Bastard. It probably is actionable. It really is! But I think that life's too long to bother with suing Andrew fucking Lloyd Webber."

Yeah
I went to a Rick Wakeman gig and he kept going on about that one, too.
To be honest, I do believe ALW is a plagarist... I just don't think it's such a big secret as everyone seems to think. Less a conspiracy, more a fact. :P
