3. "Watching You" by the Rogue Traders samples "My Sharona" by The Knack
4. "Frontier Psychiatrist" by The Avalanches samples "Holiday" by Madonna (and is the only song she's ever allowed to be sampled!)
5. "Gold Digger" by Kanye West samples "I've Got a Woman" by Ray Charles
6. "Feel It" by Tamperer samples "Can You Feel It" by the Jackson Five
7. And of course, "A Fifth of Beethoven" kinda samples Ludwig's 5th Symphony ;-)

I have to admit, there are a couple of songs here that I've never heard of, maybe I am old after all

Anyway, 150 tokens coming your way....

No, you're just in the wrong country. "Frontier Psychologist" is an excellent track by an Aussie band. The Avalanches sample tracks and bits and pieces and make choice songs out of it.

The Rogue Traders are fronted by Natalie Bassingthwaite, a "Neighbours" chick.

Quite a smart move. The Rogue Traders used to be a completely unknown group...until they got arguably the most gorgeous woman on Australian TV to front them instant success!

My favourite sample, which not many people know, is...
Stupid Girl by Garbage samples the drum beat from Train in Vain by The Clash
