Any more of these out there??

Jim points out the hook in Survivor‘s 1984 hit “I Can’t Hold Back”.  I included the beginning of the guitar solo at the end of the sample because it also incorporates the melody. Here’s all of them again!

    Heya! When I heard Dido’s “Thank You” in your post on buzzfeed (about the ‘Most used melody in music’), I instantly thought of Orishas’s ‘El Kilo’ (2004) .. check it out if you have time. 🙂

    Also.. did you got my e-mail?

    Thanks.
