Must be all that yogic flying Kanye indulges in. That, and the fact he was a less-publicised member of The Travelling Wilburys.

I don’t think there are any key words in common. Very strange.

God told him to do it, after all.

Your first instinct is to throw small pieces of fruit at him and say “No, no, you’ve got the lyrics wrong!”

Those wily old Beatles had a magpie’s eye for a plagiarism – cf. also the opening line of Run For Your Life/Baby, Let’s Play House. But unlike their lead-footed slipstreamers Oasis, they tended to get away with it. (Unless they were ripping off the Chiffons, of course.)
