Reminds me more of JAM's GONG, to be honest. Also, old as time etc.

Anyway, Touhou similarities/general?

I'm also getting Gong/Shanghai Alice of Meiji 17 vibe here.

The beginning of Beethoven's 3rd movement of "Pathetique".

and
Septette for the Dead Princess

That one is already recognized as an influence, even in other videogames.

Nice. I know enough people have seen the similarity in this one by reading comments on them, but here's another:

Evangelion OST: She said, Don't make others suffer for your personal hatred

Satori Maiden ~ 3rd Eye

Is there anything ZUN can't copy?

Every one knows Cirno's theme was copied.

Retrospective Kyoto and Fall of Fall are obvious, too. But if only five seconds of the song match, give ZUN a break.

He's not even hiding this one, but I think of Kaguya as "Xevious-hime"

And yeah, this isn't about "ZUN's ripping these guys off!" I started the thread more because I think it's neat finding the similarities and seeing if anyone else hears them.

Agreed. If you want to see a real copycat would be someone like Andrew Lloyd Webber, whose whole discography is copypasted from all over the place. He mostly steals from classical pieces though, which I guess is why most people don't know/care about it.

Ah, the Touhou Music Origins video was already linked. That pretty much sums it up.
