Oh My God = World's Apart pt II?
Am I the only one who thinks the style on this song bears a remarkable similarity to World's Apart? Specifically, I mean how it builds to a fast part at the end with lyrics no one could ever remember without reading them several times.

I definately agree with you that both endings are structured pretty similarly, but I think that's where most of the similarities end. Oh My God starts chugging along, then almosts breaks down into complete silence, and then starts growing gradually faster and louder until it abrutly ends. World's Apart is more straight forward and just comes to a natural climax.

They're both great songs, though.

There are similarities, but I'd have to agree with supanova for the most part.

Woudn't this be better placed in Individual Artists?

I would argue that nothing is better-placed in IA.

Great song! Love everything Jars makes...

But i don't get why it ends so suddenly.
Like.. build up... build up.. build up...

I also don't get why they attach "always say" after each verse.. and then at the end it's "oh my god".. does that mean that all those people always say "oh my god".
