This one popped up in the news today.
Ulrich Schnauss, a German electronic artist, filed suit against Guns N’ Roses, saying that its song “Riad N’ the Bedouins” includes unauthorized samples of his tracks “Wherever You Are” and “A Strangely Isolated Place.” But in a statement, the manager Irving Azoff said that the band “vigorously contests these claims.”

Hear for yourself:
Ulrich Schnauss - "Wherever You Are" (2001)
Guns N' Roses - "Riad N' the Bedouins" (1994-2008?)
Ulrich Schnauss - "A Strangely Isolated Place" (2003)
Guns N' Roses - "Riad N' the Bedouins" (1994-2008?)
how about these
guns n roses:chinese democracy(listen carefully to the guitar in this area since its very brief)
now we have the cult:fire woman
now Theory of a deadman(toad):bad girlfriend
“wherever you are” is 2001,not 2007.
Thanks Travis. You’re right. I was going off a release date I found on Amazon. Here’s a wikipedia page of the album

Dirt Music by Lee Kernaghan (2012) has a sample or whatever of Paradise City (1987).
