How many popular songs can you think of that have melodies based on classical music?
Here are three:
1. "I'm Always Chasing Rainbows", by Joseph McCarthy and Harry Carroll - based on the Fantasie Impromptu in C Sharp Minor by Frédéric Chopin.
2. "Stranger in Paradise" by George Forrest and Robert Wright, from the Broadway musical Kismet - based on a theme from Alexander Borodin's 'Polovetsian Dances' from his opera 'Prince Igor.'
3. "Hello Mudduh, Hello Fadduh! (A Letter From Camp)" by Allan Sherman - based on Ponchielli's 'Dance of the Hours' from the opera La Gioconda.
Can you think of any others? Can you think of any written in the last thirty years?
Pachelbel's infamous Canon in D (aka: the bane of my existence) is quoted incessantly. Oasis' "Don't Look Back in Anger," Coolio's "C U When U Get There," and Vitamin C's "Graduation" song are all based on and quote directly from the Canon.
I don't think anyone can even name another Pachelbel composition and yet his work (singular) has become the ubiquitous classical piece in pop culture. Ick. If you are a musician who has been asked to play this piece at dozens of weddings, you likely feel my pain.
