Interpolation (popular Music)
In popular music, interpolation (also called a replayed sample) refers to using a melodyor portions of a melody (often with modified lyrics)from a previously recorded song but re-recording the melody instead of directly sampling it. Interpolation is often cited as a legal defence to mask unlicensed sampling when the artist or label who owns the recording of the music declines to license the sample, or if licensing the piece of music is considered too costly. Interpolation examples Interpolation is prevalent in many genres of popular music; early examples are the Beatles interpolating "La Marseillaise" and "She Loves You", among three other interpolations in the 1967 song " All You Need Is Love", and Lyn Collins interpolating lyrics from the 5 Royales' " Think" in her similarly titled 1972 song "Think (About It)". One genre where interpolating (as well as sampling) is highly prevalent is hip hop music; prominent examples include Stevie Wonder's " Pastime Paradise" interpolate ...
