there absolutely IS a connection, and it is more involved than that!

yes, the sample at the beginning of Girl Go comes from Betty Blue. as well, the chord progression for Girl Go comes straight from a Perfect Disaster tunes called All The Stars (toutes les etoiles). the two songs share a few lines, as well, and Pat often dedicated Girl Go to Phil Parfit (of the Perfect Disaster) in concert.
