Clapton vs Princess Bride

Okay, here's an interesting find... Does everyone know the theme song to the movie, "The Princess Bride"? You know, that cheesy melody that arose every time Wesley and Buttercup got together...
Okay, I know you do. Don't be afraid... it's alright.

Imagine that song playing in your head, or youtube it if you have to.

Now, I was going through my simple Eric Clapton collection and trying out some new stuff, when I came along his song, "Holy Mother." I was really getting into it, especially because it was dedicated to Richard Manuel, (commonly known as a member of The Band) one of my other favourite singers/musicians. Then, in the middle of the song, that theme from "The Princess Bride" came up... and now I can't get it out of my head...

Please tell me someone else has noticed this, or at least does now. Well, I just thought I'd share that with you all. Cheers.
