Maybe I'm hearing more into it than there is, and I'm not a musician. Still it's the piece closest to the Thing on a Spring tune that I've heard and I would be surprised if Rob Hubbard (who is said to have written the latter) didn't hear this one before composing his. But who knows. Maybe they are just both in the line of some classical country music pieces including rhythms (I don't know much about country music), and share the use of synthesizers for it, but also the daring attitude, change of sound from part to part, and the pitch up (however you would call that) bits.
