5. The Beatles – “Strawberry Fields Forever” / “We smile – Strawberry Fields Forever”
A continuation of the somewhat different kind: the Hamburger L’Age-d’Or band Use the open end of the Beatles classic as the basis for a sequel. You take over the text, but it is by no means a cover version, rather an improvisation to musical motifs, of which you derive a kind of funny radio pop.
6. The doctors-beer songs

9. Kendrick Lamar-“The Heart” Part 1-4
In hip -hop, the recourse to characters and motifs of your own catalog is a popular move.
