Lines sampled in a song??


At the end of film where Cody discovers Vic is a cop, he says 'and I was gonna split 50/50 with a cop' and 'come up with your hands up - how do you like that Ma'

These have been sampled in a song - does anyone remember which song?

It was on Madonna's True Blue album (1986). I think the song was called, um, WHITE HEAT.


They did have some lines directly from the movie.

Yes it was from Madonna's True Blue album with the same name, it is also a good song too

One of Madonna's best songs!

You may not be aware that the British band The Rubettes (who had a few "glam/bubblegum" style hits in the early 70s) produced an album in 1978 called "Sometime in Oldchurch" - mainly in a country-rock style - featuring a very good song based on "White Heat" called "Top of the World".

I wasn't aware but after 12 years of ignoring your reply I'm listening to it for the first ever time on YouTube! 😀
