Live Song Not Original?, Found this by accident...what do you think? Options

[Stood Up For Live]

I don't watch Friends...but I was up late flipping channels and saw this episode and it caught my ear. I did some research and this show was recorded in 1997 (six years before Birds of Pray was released). I couldn't believe what I was hearing...the similarities are just so much that I had to hope that it was a coincidence and not intentional...what do you all think? I am a huge LIVE fan as most know and this just upset me.

Hmm, that is interesting. Perhaps Ed used the idea of those lyrics and changed it suit the song. The girl goes on to sing 'I can't help but fall from grace', while Ed sings 'Something overwhelms my heart with grace'. Thanks for sharing. As I said, interesting. Looking forward to further comments.
