Criminal by Britney Spears sounds familiar

[strep3241]

Every time I hear the song Criminal by Britney Spears, I keep thinking of a Fleetwood Mac or Stevie Nicks song but can't think of the name of it. I googled this and did not get any answers. Can somebody help me out? This has really been driving me nuts.

im gonna have to agree with this one.

None of those are it. The part that makes me think of another song is part of the chorus that says "this type of love isn't rational, it's physical." The song I am thinking of says a couple more things past physical.

Song title was probably dedicated to the person in the right.

WTF, I don't hear the similarity, and I've heard Super Tramps The Logical Song ever since they came out.
What am I missing?

I think its the lyrics of that one specific part more than the actual sound that he's talking about.

I still don't hear the similarity, just me anyway. :\

ST-TLS Lyrics


I say, "Now what would you say for they calling you a radical
Liberal, fanatical, criminal?"
Won't you sign up your name? We'd like to feel you're
Acceptable, respectable, presentable, a vegetable
Oh, ch-ch-check it out yeah.

BS-C Lyrics

But mama I'm in love with a criminal
And this type of love isn't rational, it's physical
Mama please don't cry, I will be alright
All reason aside I just can't deny, I love the guy

The rational, it's physical part, not the song as a whole, is what made me think of the Supertramp song.

The Fleetwood mac/Nicks part and the fact they were both female vocalist . Threw ya off .

I win. Because I didn't listen to the Britney Spears song.

 

[Rifter]

I think roger hodgson wrote that song long before supertramp came to be.

I prefer Fiona Apple's Criminal. I can't stand Britney Spears.
