This Missy Elliott track just came up on random and there's a synth noise that gets used almost all the way through it that was itching away at my brain - then I got it and it's from the second track <more below>
I shouldn't be surprised, because Kraftwerk, and particularly Trans Europe Express have a long history of being sampled by turntabilists starting with Afrika Bambaata breakbeating the title track for Planet Rock.
I'm sure this Spanish nugget is ripping off every time you walk in the room...

If anyone can help me figure out why this song sounds like that song it's you, hingehead, because the songs don't really sound much alike when I sit down and listen.
This song just came on the radio:
And for just a few bars I fully expected it to be this song...
I don't really Eminence Front that well so that might colour my opinion. It's possible you were hearing the disco shuffle guitar as an analog of the sequencer pattern in the Who track. To me the synth-sax warblings and the funky beat make it quite different to the mechanical 4/4, but brains make associations and patterns according to what they know.

going back to the mashup element, one of my favourite mash up projects of the last few years was Dean Gray's American Edit
this tune was the genesis of the project
though this tune is my favourite from the project

Surely no-one can't hear the blatant rip off the Cardigan's 'Heartbreaker' does from Black Sabbath's 'Black Sabbath'
It starts about 12 seconds in:

Never heard this before but the 'Tell me why, I really wanna know' bit comes in it was so the Judas rant in Superstar. Or is it just me - did webber/rice borrow it?

It is obvious that this is ripping of My Sharona - isn't it?
There's a tiny synth bridge around the 230 mark that I think is pinching a line another synth bridge from Gary Numan's Are Friends Electric (or is it OMD's 'Almost')
Holy cow! Yes, it's obvious. I think this would count as "sampling".

On the refrainy bit when they sing
I want her everywhere and if she's beside me
I know I need never care (say around the 1:18 mark)
Reminds me so much of the 'Do you know' bit of this:

The verse riff of this new Anne Soldat track sounds like Bittersweet by the Hoodoo Gurus to me - you be the judge

Today was just one of those days where everything I did reminded me of you, every song I heard some how related to you.

This just came up on shuffle
For some reason that string riff always makes me think of this:
Is it just me?

This just came up on random
It really reminded me of this (around the chorusy bits anyway)
Took me a while to realise it was triggering early bowie.

This is pretty blatantly stealing from Jesus Christ Superstar's 'Everything's Alright' and some how sticking Auld Lang Syne in as well. Copy from one source: plagiarism. Copy from many: research.
