Pop music?
[edit]There is a lot of examples where classical music quotes classical music. I would appreciate a few characteristic examples of 20th or 21st century (pop) music quoting classical music, such as (I think)
- Roll over Beethoven (and many others, I guess), quoting Beethoven's Symphony_No._5_
- Abba's Ode to Freedom from their 2021 album Voyage, quoting Tchaikowsky's Swan Lake

- Men at Work, "Down Under", a deliberate quotation of Kookaburra_(song), (and clearly "done for the purposes of characterization") Number One hit in USA, Aus and NZ, then, 3 decades later, subject of a court case and found on technical grounds to be plagiarisation. 1.159.9.95 (talk) 06:42, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
