I saw that a while back--it's way awesome. Are there any analogs to the "Amen" in other genres?

None of these 'songs' would have been any worse had they been written with their own drum beats. I don't get the sampling thing, but maybe it's because I'm a musician and an play drums and/or program a drum machine myself....... As far as whining about copyright laws; Make your own music, and you don't have to worry about it.
