What was sampled in that song? Is it only "True"? Someone told me that everything but the lyrics is an old song from the 60's. Jus' wonderin'.

there's three songs that make up the skeleton of "set adrift on memory bliss"

the keyboards, of course, are "true" from spandau ballet

the drum track is from a song by a band called "ashley's roachclip", a very old track who's name escapes me at the moment. it was at one time one of the most sampled drum loops. also used by milli vanilli and eric b & rakim.

in the lp version, there are some bells behind the "broke a wishbone" verse. those are from "take me to the mardi gras" by bob james. other parts of that same track were used in run-dmc's "peter piper".....


and there ya go.
