 The song has been compared to Norman Greenbaum 's 1969 glam rock song " Spirit in the Sky " , Juana Molina 's 2003 song " Sonamos " and Rachel Stevens ' 2004 song " Some Girls " ( itself heavily influenced by Goldfrapp 's own " Strict Machine " ) . Gregory noted that comparisons to Greenbaum were made when the duo released the song " Train " in 2003 , adding that the two tracks share the same glam swing . Goldfrapp rejected comparisons to Stevens , stating that " Some Girls " was " very bland " .
