Venus is lifted largely from a Big 3 song called the Banjo Song (featuring Mama Cass pre-& Papas)

Kind of a Hot Chocolate vibe to this one. Do You Believe in Miracles?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:22pm
Funky16Corners:

@Jeff - The singer has a similar feel
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:23pm
doctorjazz:

Yup, too close for coincidence (bizarre arrangement for O Suzanna, but original). I guess they likely sold the acoustic guitar chord/riff from The Who.
Still love the song...

I guess US listeners wouldn't understand it Larry.
