This list is of songs that have been interpolated by other songs. Songs that are cover versions, parodies, or use samples of other songs are not "interpolations". The list is organized under the name of the artist whose song is interpolated followed by the title of the song, and then the interpolating artist and their song.
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", [3] and Lyn Collins interpolating lyrics from the 5 Royales' "Think" in her similarly titled 1972 song "Think (About It)".
