What's a song that includes a sample of another song you enjoy?

[rb2groovy]

As I drive around town and listen to the latest pop music on radio, I cannot help but to feel my age when I hear samples of songs that I heard when I was younger. I find myself sounding like my parents (and their 70s soul/funk). I'll turn to a friend and say "You hear that? That's so-and-so's song!"

I'm including two: an oldie but goodie, and then a newer one I heard from a song radio playlist.

What's a current song that made you have the same response?

This one's a classic song sampled in a classic song.

I especially like this version. It's on my little "Bass" playlist.

Nice topic, @rb2groovy! 

I'm a couple years or so late in replying to your thread, but one song that I enjoy listening to, which I only later discovered contains a sample of another song, is "Revealed Gravitation" by The Re-Stoned:

https://open.spotify.com/track/5U9lzWIAp4OZoyloVYSWzu?si=49e0f80b651f4f26

During the first 30 seconds or so of this track (the spoken-word sample section), you can hear the beginning of "Oxygène, Pt. 2" by Jean-Michel Jarre:

https://open.spotify.com/track/7vLKG4ww0P8seUUsbgpcz3?si=abe7a05744954de1

I hadn't heard this electronic song by Jean-Michel Jarre until after The Re-Stoned's Orange Session album was released, so when I did hear "Oxygène, Pt. 2," I immediately recognized it as the electronic music being sampled in "Revealed Gravitation."

Cheers!
