VERY Odd Question

[NiCKEY NoUSE]

Not sure if this is the right forum to post this but....I was listening to the "Disney Classics" CD when I noticed that the "My Name is James" song from James and the Giant Peach had a familiar little tune in it. At the very end of the song there's a little outro that sounds VERY similar to the "signature" song in the movie CONTACT, starring Jodie Foster. So here's the question: Is it possible that the movie stole the theme from Disney?? Or am I just going crazy??? Anyone who can answer this question gets major brownie points!!!

:sohappy:

Sometimes it's a classic song and many people use it in movies, so you're not going crazy.

Well they're not entire songs per se, they're actually parts of the songs. In WB's 1998 (I think) movie Contact starring Jodie Foster, the little tune is played at the very end of the movie, and during emotional scenes...In James it's at the end of "My Name is James." So the question still stands...
