10 Hit Songs You Had No Idea Used Samples

6. Steal My Sunshine - LEN

Steal My Sunshine by LEN is, in every way, a non-stop banger of a sweet summer jam.

More, More, More by Andrea True Connection is, on the other hand, a non-stop bop of a saucy summer sizzler.

Aside from that, the two songs have little in common, and would rarely be associated with one another. But what if we told you that one was borne of the other?

It's rare that an artist can heavily sample an iconic hit and create a brand new, equally iconic hit, but that's exactly what LEN did. By looping a short piece of More, More, More's somewhat forgettable bridge (around the 2:20 mark below), they manifested the backbone of an unforgettable summer standard.

As it turns out, there was more, more, more to More, More, More after all.
