Holy crap! OMG!

Peter Gabriel flagrantly plaigirizes Stevie Wonder! Listen to Gabriel's "Sledgehammer" and tell me that ISN'T the brassy trumpet hook from "Superstition"!!! Thief!

BWAAAAAA! ba ba baaaaa-da BAAAAAAA!!!

It isn't...it's similar, but it isn't.

Although Coolio and Will Smith never were too shy to ask Stevie for some hooks!

First off, it's EXACT. Maybe a different key, but the same horn riff. And second of all, sampling a song and looping it as the central theme of another song (even if it *is* a crappy, toothless audio-commercial for your equally shitty movie) is way different than straight-up copping a key riff and jamming it into a totally different context.

But just to set the record straight, I'm not hating on Peter Gabriel. "Sledgehammer" brought back the echo-y Indian flute in a way that wouldn't be matched until Enigma's "Return to Innocence". Or Chief Thunder from Killer Instinct. Damn that was a cool game. Kilgore was my favorite character. And he DEFINITELY had the best theme song on the free promo CD. Total industrial metal! RAWK!

Anyway, not hating. Just stating.
