Is it just me ? Recently I´ve listened to ELO`s/Olivia Newton Johns "Xanadu" on the radio. The Outro of the song reminds me very much to "The Miracle" Outro ( voice melody)

There's maybe a slight resemblance...
In other news - there's three minutes of my life I'll never get back.
As a Rush fan, listening to this Xanadu was downright cardinal sin.

Great observation
Sounds to me like an old New Seekers track 'I'd like to tach the world to sing' which was used in a coca cola TV spot in the 70s 'I'd lie to buy the world a coke!'
On a similar theme, invisible man /ghostbusters theme has probably been mentioned before

^ ha ! I'll stick to good Canadian music, thanks ;)
Anyone into Rush or Frank Zappa really needs to hear an obscure Canadian band called Max Webster. They only had five albums and existed for a few years, but what they produced is nothing short of sensational. They achieved the balance of quirky complexity and accessibility to near perfection.
