The Knowing interpolated the intro but samples a different portion of the same song iirc

I thought The Knowing sampled cherry-coloured funk by the Cocteu Twins?

I know Wicked Games is sampled, it's some classical type shit but I can't for the life of me remember the name or find it anywhere, pls help

edit: I seem to remember Doc or Ill talking about it in an interview, could be wrong tho

I think it might be parra for Cuva?

Super late but I think you are thinking about how the guitar melody in wicked games sounds sort of similar to the melody in Heaven or Las Vegas by the Cocteau Twins. It would make sense for the weeknd to “sample” this because he has sample Cocteau twins before and is obviously a fan of them, but at the same time i never heard of he actually sampled heaven or las vegas in wicked games. Its just something that i noticed sound similar in both tracks.

not copied but highly inspired, + the chord progression is super common in rnb/soul

It sounds like Feeling Good by Nona Simone but it's slowed down.
