Weezer ripped off George Benson

It's true. Weezer apparently have a thing for the smooth jazz stylings of guitar maestro George Benson. My girlfriend noticed this after I played Breezin' for her, and therefore, credit is DEW to Jenn.

weezer - burndt jamb, george benson - breezin'

It's hardly the most original chord idea in the universe to begin with.

let's first check that a) the George Benson song isn't in the public domain, and b) that Weezer didn't actually get the rights to the melody or whatever. then we can sue. and add more fuel to the fire that every Weezer album since the blue has been crap.

Yeah, it's really not at all impossible for this to happen purely because of what there is to work with in the spectrum of music.
