Ever found out where a sample came from in a song...

[crossisom]

...and you come to like the original song more?

For example:
Elements of this was used for Number One by Pharrell...

Absolutely. The biggest example for me is:

Hit up 2:28 for the sampled part

Love that website, but I do like finding out on my own better.

Need a real music head for this...what's the original song that the piano comes from in Pac's Something 2 Die 4. It's an oldies classic and beenbuggin me for years. Nobody's mentioned it any of the youtube comments and can't find it on whosampled.com or any sites.

yeah whosampled has put me on to a lot of great old school songs.

That site is cool. I always just used to look it up on Wikipedia, most major rap albums list their samples on there.
