   Hmmm.   
      
   I just down-loaded the track from iTunes. I agree that the I  IV  I  IV ...   
   repeated piano vamp in the intro is similar, and that both have a Spanish   
   feel in places, but I think it's no more than an influence. They're not   
   copying any of the sax line, or the chord structure of the verse or the   
   chorus.
