I always wondered who copied whom: did Orbital take the orb or the Orb the orbital - names not sound? Or was it all coincidence?

Both are great, my preference was always for The Orb - no idea why!

Two totally different words, and two totally different sounds. The only similarity is the have the same first 3 letters.

Do you also get confused by The Cure and Curve?
