I don’t know the answer but my initial thoughts were maybe a Christmas song or a charity single that has been used many times over.
Does anyone know what the most covered / sampled song is to feature in the UK charts? |

The song sampled in Supermode - Tell Me Why seems to be in a lot of things.

I'm going to guess it's Unchained Melody which has been a chart hit for:
Jimmy Young 1955 (1) Al Hibbler 1955 (2) Les Baxter 1955 (10) Liberace 1955 (20) Jimmy Young with the Michael Sammes Singers 1964 (43) Righteous Brothers 1965 (1) Leo Sayer 1986 (54) Robson & Jerome 1995 (1) Gareth Gates 2002 (1) |

Good Times by Chic has been sampled in 205 songs, according to who sampled. I haven't checked how many of them charted, and a fair few are lesser known remixes which may not even have appeared on their single releases, but I wouldn't be surprised if there are at least 10 where it appears in the main version which charted.

"Love Sensation" by Loleatta Holloway is one of the most sampled tracks ever and a lot of tracks sampling it charted. The ones I remember or could find:
Black Box - Ride On Time Marky Mark - Good Vibrations Chase & Status - Blind Faith Love Sensation (Freemasons 2006 Remix) Eddie Thoneick & Kurd Maverick - Love Sensation 2006 Sway - Still Speedin Fisher - You Little Beauty Cevin Fisher - (You Got Me) Burnin Up Cappella - Take Me Away Lenny Fontana & DJ Shorty - Chocolate Sensation and I'm sure there's plenty more |

Yeah I think I once read somewhere it's 'Unchained Melody' if we're talking about the song that has charted for the most different number of artists (it's also been number one by four different artists which I believe is a record). I also read somewhere that 'Yesterday' is the most covered song in history.

Why do I think it's Hallelujah or Amazing Grace?

The Winstons' 'Amen, Brother' is essentially the basis for the entire genre of drum n bass so I'd guess it would be that (it's only a sample of a 6 second drum loop but still)

I am almost sure there are more versions Liberty X Natasha & Daniel Bedingfield sang at the Brits too. And their version was released as a B-side to Natasha’s single “I Bruise easily” in 2005 This post has been edited by hermespice: Apr 13 2020, 05:26 PM |
