Choclair - Back Where I've Stayed (2003) sampled Michael Jackson - I Wanna Be Where You Are (1971)

Artist:  Choclair
Song:  Back Where I've Stayed
Year:  2003
Album:  Not Officially Released


The version of this song that appears on the Flagrant album is not the one that Torontonians know and love.  This original version was produced by Tone Mason and received a lot of local radio play.




Artist:  C-Rayz Walz
Song:  The Art Of Energy
Year:  2009
Album:  Who The F%@k Are You?



Here's a more recent song that stayed true to the same sample.




Artist:  Michael Jackson
Song:  I Wanna Be Where You Are
Year:  1971
Album:  Got To Be There



The Choclair sample is a two-bar loop from 0:00.  Four bars of singing from 0:33 were also used in the chorus.

C-Rayz Walz used the same two-bars from 0:00 but repeats the first bar multiple times before using the second bar.
