            While Solitary Shell is vaguely reminiscent of Solisbury Hill by
    Peter Gabriel, I doubt it was based on it. Take a listen to them side
    by side, they have similar aspects but aren't the same.
            While we're on amusing comparisons, the beginning of Misunderstood
    sounds vaguely (very vaguely) like part of the start of Thank You by
    Led Zeppelin. :)
