One of my favourite is Robbie William's millenium which sampled the bond theme you only live twice.

Cheryl Cole did some great sampling of fleetwood mac in Boy Like You

Eminem sampled Heart's song 'Crazy in love' in his song of the name. which i thought was a great song.

This one is a bit embarrassing but Atomic Kitten's Be With You which samples ELO's Last Train to London.

^ Oh yes, I remember that.

"Dance! Boogie Wonderland!...

My favourite sample is from 'Rapper's Delight' by the Sugarhill Gang, sampling 'Good Times' by Chic.

Madonna's HUNG UP! PURE GENIUS!! and TIMELESS (as always) made Gimme Gimme Gimme cool M i salute you!!

and Robbie's Millennium sample is fantastic use of Bittersweet Symphony!

Britney's Everybody bonus track from Blackout featured Annie Lennox' vocals from Eurythmics' Sweet Dreams (are Made Of This) FANTASTIC!

I can see why you'd think that, but it's not quite Bittersweet Symphony. However, Ridin' Solo by Jason Derulo and Number 1 by Tinchy Stryder sample Bittersweet Symphony.

I'm listening to No Love by Eminem, which I'm sure samples something, but I've forgotten what it's called.

Another one I like is Poker Face by Lady Gaga, sampling Boney M, and also I Gotta Feeling sampling David Guetta.

Haddaway - What Is Love

It was such a letdown to discover that the piano in "Foolish" by Ashanti, which is the best thing about the song, was actually sampled from "Stay With Me" by DeBarge.

I really like How Did I End Up With You by The Dolly Rockers, which samples 3OH!3's Don't Trust Me and Propaganda's Duel. And another song of theirs, Gold Digger, which samples Stool Pigeon by Kid Creole And The Coconuts.

"I Ain't Mad at Cha" which samples "A Dream" by DeBarge.

lol how can you not hear it? are you listening to the same track? It comes in during the hmmmmmms/chorus in Frozen, whereas it's throughout the whole track in Pure Shores. I'm shocked people don't know this.

Sugababes - Round Round is a good track that samples another song.

People don't know it as it isn't true.

They may sound a bit similar due to the fact they were both produced by William Orbit, but there's no sampling involved at all.
