The entire musical backing for this song is just a sample of a Serge
Gainsbourg song, looped, with a synth thing on top. Course, Mr. Vibert does
the same thing on one track on Big Soup but at least he uses lots of samples
from different songs and changes them around. Even the style of the vocals on
'Master and Servant' is copied from the Gainsbourg song. It's one of the most
obvious rip-offs I've ever heard of one of Gainsbourg's songs. I've got
nothing against Mr. Van Hoen in general, but I was kind of annoyed by the
plagarism on this track.
