I’m thinking of things like the Chopin Polonaise in Perry Como’s _Till the End of Time_, or Eric Carmen using Rachmaninov in _All by Myself_. ---

> [@Bayaker](#): > > I had to google what “sampling” was. Didn’t we used to call these “adaptations”? Sampling is different – it’s taking a brief piece of _recorded_ music and using it essentially as an “instrument” in another piece. That piece can be a vocal, a guitar riff, a drum beat, keys, record-scratching, what have you. To illustrate using my own selection in this list, cue the Utah Saints video to about 1:00 to hear a short section of Kate Bush’s vocal from “Cloudbusting” run through repeatedly in “Something Good”. That’s not Bush having re-recorded the lyrics – that’s a loop of the vocal from the “Cloudbusting” recording. [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/Xg9Wqs4vjZM/maxresdefault.jpg "Utah Saints - Something Good (Official Video)") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xg9Wqs4vjZM&t=59) To hear where in “Cloudbusting” the sampled loop comes from, cue to about 2:17 in this video: [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/pllRW9wETzw/hqdefault.jpg "Kate Bush - Cloudbusting - Official Music Video") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pllRW9wETzw&t=135) **[Some songs](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pump_Up_the_Volume_(song))** are almost nothing but samples strung together and mixed over one another: [![](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ULdCat1B_FE/hqdefault.jpg?sqp=-oaymwEmCOADEOgC8quKqQMa8AEB-AH-BIAC4AOKAgwIABABGH8gGSgoMA8=&rs=AOn4CLBLwsLmzLmZcdRaAKZeXrFQa1DkJQ "Pump Up The Volume MARRS") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULdCat1B_FE) ---

Makes me want to listen to Joe’s Garage. Thanks. Watermelon in Easter Hay - most mournful guitar solo ever (and I mean that in a good way!). Gawd, I love that piece. ---
