    Jamie's Cryin' in Uncle Buck!

    Tone Loc did a song called "Wild Thing" back in the 80's and it features bits and pieces of Jamie's Cryin'. This took me years to notice...

    Reading Crazy From the Heat in four hours flat, in a cramped RV, on the return trip of a 3,000+ mile family outing to New Jersey is an enlightening experience you'll never forget.

    There is a bit of KISS's "Doctor Love" in that tune as well, and if I'm not mistaken, part of a Foreigner tune. Depending on who you believe, VH made a deal with Tone either before or after the song was released for royalties.

      I read an interview where Ed is talking about this song. He said he recognized Al's drums in the intro, and that at one point threatened to sue.
      I don't know what happened with that, but it was the same time 2 Live Crew got zapped for their "Funk Shop" tune.

      Alot of rap isn't shit without sampling (stealing) bits and pieces of someone elses music.
