Song Notes

Seal / Led Zeppelin

Released as his official debut single, “Crazy” became one of Seal’s biggest hits, reaching the top five in the United Kingdom while becoming his first top ten single in the United States. It has since been covered by several artists, including Alanis Morissette, whose version was released as a single from her album The Collection (2005).

The Led Zeppelin song “The Crunge” was release in 1973 from the album “Houses of the Holy” is the mirror track and get this – zepplin was not credited back to Seal’s song.


Amy Winehouse / Marvin Gaye

“Tears Dry On Their Own” is a song released by Amy Winehouse in 2011.

While the melody and lyrics are composed by Winehouse, the music behind her voice is a sample interpolation of Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell’s 1967 Motown classic hit “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough”. The original ballad version of the track is featured on the posthumous album Lioness: Hidden Treasures (2011). The song was featured in the documentary film based on the life and death of Winehouse, Amy (2015) and was also included on the film’s soundtrack.


Big Audio Dynamite II / Pigmeat Markham

“Rush” was a song released by Big Audio Dynamite II in 1991.

They are a British musical group formed in 1984 by the ex-guitarist and singer of The Clash, Mick Jones.

The song samples several songs including the keyboard component of The Who’s song “Baba O’Riley”, the organ from the introduction to the Deep Purple song “Child in Time”, a drum break from Tommy Roe’s “Sweet Pea”, drums and guitars from a break in Pigmeat Markham’s “Here Comes the Judge”, a line from The Sugarhill Gang’s song “Rapper’s Delight” where Big Bank Hank raps “a time to laugh, a time to cry”, and a vocal sample from Peter Sellers in Fred Flange’s song “You Keep Me Swingin'”, where Sellers talks about “rhythm and melody”.
