Gilbert O'sullivan sued biz because the original song was a sad song and he felt that biz turned it into a comical type of song(which it isnt). The whole situation was ridiculous, and gilbert should be ashamed for being so petty. The case of the turtles vs. de la soul is the more important sampling lawsuit because that made rappers and producers pay more attention to how they obtained and used samples(mainly asking and paying for them). Biz followed those guidlines and still got sued over it.

Is Gilbert O'Sullivan going to sue youtube for having this song available since he sued Biz for using the sample?

[john johnjohn]

This is the definitive case that changed the way the hip-hop world composed music using samples. Before this case artists sampled other artist's works freely without compensation.

Initially,Biz asked permission to use the sample. Gilbert was a little guarded with his songs and knowing the comedic nature of Biz declined permission. Biz used it anyway, without compensation. Ol' Gilly felt he was pressured into pursuing the lawsuit and he wished that the whole thing didn't even happen.

i think it's especially funny that Biz is on Yo Gabba Gabba. He's such a mean, thief of a rapper, that he appears on a kids show to teach them how to rhyme!

Stealing but it's still there. Still living with your mom are ya?

[gabsassi]

sampling is a form of compliment if anything. Shows your music is inspiring to others.
