12 hit songs and their original samples PART 3

[@tankbusta5335]

Futurama was sampled? Wow!

[@hanna-lachaineduneplangono6170]

I knew Pierre Henry before Futurama because some parts of his songs were played in my city's Tramway... (For example, the bit that was sampled in Futurama was playing when we stopped in the city centre)

[@flyingmonkeys5097]

[@goobablo7]

[@matty1745]

the melodies from the song in the video and the drums from amen-the winstons

[@k-leb4671]

It isn't a direct sample, as the instruments were recorded specifically for the Futurama theme (including the tubular bells), but it does have the melodies and chords and whatnot.

[@paulpheonix8840]

What Moby did to that Exodus was genius.

agreed

@@verylovejoejonas So, because Bittersweet Symphony used the Rolling Stones cover of "The Last Time" as a sample, the Rolling Stones were credited to the song and were given all royalties attributed to the song, this only changed back in april 2019 when rights were given back to The Verve by the Rolling Stones.

[@dpw81]

Almost the whole album "Discovery" by Daft Punk was made off samples from tracks from the 70s and 80s.

[@JohnH108]

For the Millenium string "sample" the strings were actually re-recorded as Williams' team didn't want to pay full wack. The record label, Chrysalis Records, discovered that a new recording would cost only one-tenth of the licensing fee that would be required to sample "You Only Live Twice", so they asked for a new string section that still acted as a recognisable pastiche of the song. So not actually a sample

[@mackr1940]

Paul Revere by the Beastie Boys does something similar, where most of the beat is built around the drum beat from another song.

[@Henryduckfan63]

Imraan W The Beatles song Because came about when John Lennon asked Yoko Ono to try to play Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata backwards on piano.
