"According to the 20-year-old, he didn't realize that the melody on the chorus was similar to the one on 'In Bloom,' which led to a Nirvana writing credit on the track. The song, which is featured on his debut EP 7, got the final blessing from the Resident Millennial of the Nirvana estate, Frances Bean Cobain. Lil Nas X tweeted a 'thank you' to the daughter of Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love. "

Hmm, he claims he'd never listened to the Nirvana song before, which has been deemed plausible given his age (but it can obviously be hard to remember what songs you've heard). IDK if the melody is really original enough to validly claim copyright.

the bass trombone in The Grand Wazoo - 0:58 on the original LP - is the same as what you hear at the beginning of the series Danger Man (1961). Different key, same bass trombone long note + long/short motif as develops in the Zappa. pretty hilarious
