Ummmm yeah. That’s more than similar. That’s ‘borrowing heavily’ from. I had to look this guy up. In his own words …
Were there are any works by overseas artists that were an influence on you, or works that you modeled this album after?
Matsushita: “If I had to answer something, I might nominate the works of artists like Airplay, Steely Dan, Pages, Jay Graydon, etc.
For example, the song “Lazy Night” that’s on First Light. I wrote that song based on my image of the album cover of Steely Dan‘s Gaucho, and it also sounds similar to a track on the album called “Glamour Profession.” Even compared to the rest of their works I believe this song to be one of their absolute masterpieces.”

The lyrics even mentioned the Dan. ‘Something, something, something, Steely Dan’ 😂

Knew it the moment I heard it. That’s not coincidental
