Random Musings - Day #355

Someone said they liked the Ski Sunday, which reminds to look a r&b song which I swear sampled not the actual ski sunday theme tune but the incidental music used to show the downhill course, etc.
Having a look at television tunes proved a bit fruitless. But I happened to stumbled an amazon remark made on the Richard X and Kelis mash-up song, "Finest Dreams".

The song is an interpolation of "The Finest" by The SOS Band c 1986 and "The Things That Dreams Are Made Of" by The Human League, from the Dare album. (which incidentally was also used as the music for Ski Sunday some years ago.)


So it was an obscure Human League album track, The things that dreams are made of. A remix is seen here. I've found no reference to more recent sample of the riff in that song so maybe it was Kelis I was thinking of.
