Sampling really bugs me. All the young peeps think that these pop artists came up with the tune themselves when in reality, most of their "songs" are created using sampling. Okay, I'm off subject a bit here, but sampling bugs me. I agree 100% Same thing goes with cover songs. If an artist is going to cover another artist, they need to make it perfectly clear that they are not the ones who wrote the song. I cant tell you how many little people I've met who think No Doubt wrote "Its My Life" or *cringes* think Limp Bizkit wrote "Behind Blue Eyes". YES!!! "Behind Blue Eyes"...Geez you don't understand how many people think Limp Bizkit wrote it!!! UGHHH Or that American Woman was by Lenny Kravitz. Or that "Another Brick in the Wall" is by Korn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PuppetKing2112 Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 (Insert Nickelback song here) = (Insert other Nickelback song here) = Hinder's "Lips of an Angel" This kind of generic hard rock makes me question my faith in humanity far more than Paris Hilton and K-Fed do, despite a thread I made a while back saying just the opposite. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finbar Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 - Open Secrets by Rush and that new wave song I hear on the radio sometimes, I don't know the band name or song name, but it goes like, "I just died in your arms tonight! Must've been something you said," or something like that. - What You're Doing by Rush and a lot of Led Zeppelin songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finbar Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 QUOTE (the_masked_drummer @ Apr 10 2006, 02:29 PM) Sampling is stealing. Period. That would be no different than writing a book and sticking pages from another author's book into your book and calling it original. That's not art, in my opinion, it's highway robbery. Why can't they at least try to re-record what the original artist did. That way, at least they worked a little bit for it, even though they're still stealing?! My new band covered "push it" by salt n pepa, but at least we're buying the rights to it, legally so we can publish it. Here come the arguments... :pirate: "Still stealing?" Do you consider 2112 Overture or La Villa Strangiato to be stealing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KublaKhan Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 The "Solo" to Dani California is very similar to the Purple Haze riff. Well, at least the first few notes of the solo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PuppetKing2112 Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Speaking of INXS, the riff to Need You Tonight is the same as a riff to a song on the last Rolling Stones album, A Bigger Bang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really hear the similarity between Celebration Time and Roundabout, though, but I'll listen again. BOTH great songs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vanilla Ice sampled from their Under Pressure duet. Sampling is legal. Tone Loc's Wild Thing samples Van Halen's Jamie's Cryin', as another example.
