not in a "sample" way neccisarily.
What inspired this was Breathe byu john frusciante. It has a minute or so of tortured lo fi guitars and stuff then suddenly kicks in with the string intro to Changes by david bowie for a few bars, then suddenly just back into the song. It's brilliant

Yeah just talk about good use of samples or something.
freedom of speech - immortal technique
has "i have no strings" from pinnochio.
this is clever
Hello Hello its good to be back its good to be back
Great suggestion.
millions of half-man half-biscuit songs!
My faves being
#boom boom boom - now let me hear you say 'hosepipe ban'#
or #i'm slim shady, i'm the real slim shady, the other slim shady's gone to play tennis#
'Blue Moon' in 'Karl Blau' by The Microphones
yes! this! yes! this! yes!
Orange Juice "Rip It Up"
You know me I'm acting...dum-dum
You know the scene, it's very...humdrum
And my favourite song's entitled...Booooredom.
[one note guitar solo]
Genius.
Les Savy Fav-
'Knowing how the world works' ("Papa don't preach")
'One Way Widow' ("You're so vain, you probably don't think this song is about you")
Blink 182 also quote Nirvana in Adam's Song (take the time, hurry up)
Les Savy Fav - 'Cut It Out'
(the guitar riff from 'Da Ya Think I'm Sexy?')
Sugar Bear - 'Don't Scandalize Mine'
using Talking Heads' 'Once In A Lieftime' or Ride - 'Seagull' using the bassline from 'Taxman'
Massive Attack's use of
The Cure's '1015 on a saturday night' at the end of Mezzanine.
In Harvey Danger's
'Little Round Mirrors', he sings the chorus to 'Paradise City' for a few bars...
The start of
"Spanish caravan" by The Doors has a cool spanish guitar bit at the begining.
It is the main theme of the classic composition Leyenda by Isaac Albéniz according to wikipedia.
M.I.A
using pixies lyrics in $20 i reckon is quite a good use.
great choice
love this song
... as well as the bassline from Blue Monday.
2manyDJ's
Johy Allyn Smith Sails
by Okkervil River morphs into Sloop John B about halfway through. It's good.
"hey hey my my" in "happy hippo" by cloud cult
from as far as i can tell they only made that one good album, anyone know better?
taxi for one
brand new - seventy times seven // Taking back sunday - there's no 'I' in team.
What Grevaldinho said
But there's a nice but of Caroline Says in Maria's little elbows by Sparklehorse.
'She says I've really come to hate my body,
And all the things that it requires in this world...'
It's not a song-mention directly,
but Reuben:
"all this 80s indie sounds like shit to me, 'cause i don't like Joy Division, i don't like Morrissey"
good vibrations in florida beach by the microphones
starts with a bit of noise, builds , stops and fades then a radio tunes in good vibrations and phil sings the 'close my eyes shes somehow closer now' bit then then it tunes out and the proper song resumes
when Jens Lekman
plays 'The Opposite of Hallelujah' live and bursts into 'Give Me Just a Little More Time' by The Chairmen of the Board'.
<3
my absolute favourite moment at ATP, that.
yeah
I've seen him do it a few times and on each occasion it's given me an idiot grin.
Borrowed Tune by Neil Young?
Also Puff by The Red Krayola. It's a kind of sequel to Puff the Magic Dragon. It's about how Puff's life was changed by the original song, and he couldn't stand the pressures of fame.
the only one i can think of
is Natasha Bedingfield using the chorus of Jeff Buckley's 'So Real' as the bridge of one of her songs.
Tom Waits - Tom Traubert's Blues
I like Faith No More's live version of We Care A Lot where Patton turns the "Uh-uh-oh" bit into The Right Stuff.
Here Comes The Sun Again
by M Ward, the outro briefly lifts the melody from Here Comes the Sun by the Beatles. Sounds great
Sufjan Stevens
Come On! Feel The Illinoise! - the ending part that carries the melody from the Cure 'Close to Me'
i chooooooose
roaming the foam, by lifter puller. steals bits of welcome to the jungle and push it by saltnpepa. and is great.
Jeff Buckley's live version of "Hallelujah" on Mystery White Boy
where he includes some of "I Know It's Over" by the Smiths in the middle. Or Hendrix doing "Wild Thing" live at Monterey, where his guitar solo is the vocal line from "Strangers In The Night".
oh, and
I was listening to It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back at the weekend, and right after that I put on Hot Buttered Soul by Isaac Hayes, which I've just got. Halfway through the ridiculously-titled "Hyperbolicsyllabicsesquidalymistic" there's a piano improvisation which turns into the riff that PE sampled for "Black Steel In The Hour Of Chaos". Amazing coincidence, eh.
without a shadow of doubt
spiritualized acoustic mainline version of ladies and gentlemen we are floating in space, when the gospel singers sing cant help falling in love with you at the end and everyone present cries their eyes out.
Amen
Bloody brilliant
er...
thats a joke link right? theres no way that was actually ever released?
That frighteed my cat is was that bad
sorry thats about the first
link
for a minute i was wondering
why you brought your cat to a spiritualized gig
A Day In The Life
In 'Young Americans' by David Bowie
can't remember which tune
but that 80s matchbox one with the little refrain from the funeral march always tickled me
showing my age
Cleopatra's Cat by Spin Doctors uses that Egyptian na-na-nah-nah-nah-nana-nana-nana-nah thing. It's amazing.
Though I probably haven't explained that very well at all.
quite clearly
the sample of 'Super Freak' in 'Can't Touch This'.
and no one mentioned this before me. you all suck, nerds.
I saw Type O Negative last nite
They did a "Dear Prudence" coda at the end of "World Coming Down" that was quite goosebump inducing.
Liam Frost
The Mourners Of St Paul's uses What A Wonderful World
Palace - New Partner
In 'Boy Armageddon' by The Blood Brothers
they start the song by chanting "B.I.N.G.O. MURDER HAS A NAME-O!" which I always found quite amusing.
Also, nearly everything by MC Lars has bits/lines nicked from other songs - He uses the bass line from a Brand New song on 'Mr Raven' and Piebald's "Hey! Your part of it!" from 'American Hearts.'
The...
"With my mind on my money and my money on my mind" bit (from 'Gin & Juice' by Snoop Doggy Dogg) in 'Drinking in L.A.' by Bran Van 3000. Quite standardly.
Kid Rock sampling Sad But True by the 'Tallica
I'd like to teach the world to sing
