"Everyone steals, there are only 12 notes."

[jimmycameyify]

The Eminem sound happened because Dr. Dre played it for him the first time they met up and he just freestyled on it. There’s a cool documentary somewhere where they both talk about it

[SMBudge]

Fun fact: every book ever is a remix of the dictionary

[rva]

Self awareness. What a beautiful thing.

[Juttutin]

So, you don't actually know there isn't some quartet of humpback whales that do satirical covers of popular whalesongs, do you?

[obrien]

the copyright claims on this video must be fantastic.

[jochem]

to the people who hate sampling: listen to some old experimental Daft Punk, they use samples in such a way that it becomes something else entirely. its crazy :)

[kingnamjoona]

My favorite sample is “wish I was a rich man” from fiddler on the roof and Gwen stefani used it in her song “rich girl”

[billo]

Animals: sing a song to alert help
Humans: r r r re-re-re-*REMIX*

[fantasticmio]

Usually when this happens to me it's because Weird Al put it in a polka medley

[wizardsuth]

When I first heard _U Can't Touch This_ I was super freaked. Then I heard _Ice Ice Baby_ and was under pressure to figure out where I'd heard that tune before.

[NuclearBubbleWrap]

DO CRASH COURSE MUSIC HISTORY AND MUSIC THEORY

[sabruckus]

Now THIS is an A+ classic Vlogbrothers video! Not that I don't like all y'alls videos. I do. But this brought me back to the old days and I love it!

Thanks for reminding me again that the world is amazing, Hank.

"There are no new things" including this topic lmao. Great video we need to loosen up our copyright laws so disney can't continue to monopolize things they didn't even create

[whyme]

Labi siffre is so underrated. He deserves more fans and listens I only found him through Spotify recommending him and now I absolutely love him.

[charlesphilips]

Damn Hank! I love every second of this video.

[KennedyCakeLady]

MORE OF THESE!! Omg this was so much fun!

[gormster]

The song you’ve probably never heard, but you have heard in literally thousands of other songs, is _Amen Brother_ by The Winstons. The “Amen Break” is based on a sample of the drum solo from this song and there are entire *genres* built around this *one sample.*

[GothMsFrizzle]

I never know if I'm about to hear "All Summer Long" or "Werewolves of London."

[pat]

Even Mozart said that in his lifetime, all the possible combinations of notes had already been used
