Does Mere Pseud Mag Ed have the sound of a kazoo being dropped at 1min 16 secs? That would be the dead giveaway.

Sounds more like Bar bar bar, bar barbara ann to me (or as John McCain preferred, "Bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran").

And "Barbara Ann" was an influence for "Autobahn", of course:

A while ago I was listening to Chick Corea's 1972 album "Return To Forever" and noticed a certain lyrical similarity between "Sometime Ago":

"Sometime ago I had a dream, it was happy, it was lasting, it was free,"

and "Mere Pseud":

"Had a dream which was weird some time ago, heard Ramones in 81, has a Spanish guitar."

It has been suggested to me that MES sings "Had a beard which was weird." I can hear that he does sing that sometimes, but in other performances I'm sure he sings "Had a dream." (There's also at least one live version where he sings "Had a sneer..."???) Maybe hearing Chick Corea's Latin-toned fusion made him imagine the Ramones with a Spanish guitar?
