The title may not be really obvious.

What I'm looking for is a great song with a sample from another amazing song, eg: Madonna's "Hung up" that samples ABBA's "Gimme gimme gimme". Can't really think of any other examples as I'm quite fucked up...

there's millions of hip-hop examples, but the ILX standard answer should be Disco Inferno's It's a Kid's World with it's Iggy Pop sample.

Yeah, for real. Almost anybody that jacks a James Brown or P-Funk track could go here.
