bazooka Posted March 14, 2006 Report Share Posted March 14, 2006 From QUIZ 1810.THE HULK would be one. 1981 Disco/Dance song. It was popular almost a decade later when a rapper "borrowed" its music, changed the title, and had a Top Ten Hit. In an even more flagrant "sampling" overdose, rapper Coolio's 1995 chart topping single Gangster's Paradise is outright taken altogether from Stevie Wonder's Pastime Paradise ( a track from Stevie's 1976 album Songs In The Key Of Life ). Coolio barely bothered to change the title or the lyrics. I think he may have belatedly acknowledged Stevie Wonder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD 55 Posted March 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2006 Hi's guys, cheers dears. I just logged in, so I haven't checked any answers yet. Good post bazooka. I've always wondered whether these rappers pay some form of royalty to the songwriters? How do they get away with not doing so. Usually it's the only decent part of the "song".

OLD 55 Posted March 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2006 Well 6 of the 10 have been answered. Laurie went straight for the one I reckoned would be the most difficult, and she got it + a few others. Jenny and das also snapped up one each. Well done all. Great to see Joe back ! Good answer for #1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
