I've been thinking about this lately--there have been a lot of songs over the past decade or so which have taken part of an older song and incorporated it into a more modern production; I'm talking specifically about songs that have used the sample as their entire beat and not just a small piece.

I am, of course, a Janet fan so I know some of her lesser-known ones. They're obvious, but I didn't know about them until I looked them up. Here are some of my favorites:

"All Nite (Don't Stop)"

I never new Make Me sampled any song! Janet's the true queen of samples.

One of my favourite samples is the pretty obvious Reach Out (Hilary Duff), which samples Personal Jesus by Depeche Mode.

Rihanna - SOS

sampled Tainted Love by Soft Cell

Sarah Connor - Bounce
