Brandy's new album 'Afrodisiac' features a sample of Iron Maiden's 'The Clansman'. The song 'I Tried' starts with a loop of the 'The Clansman' from their 1998 'Virtual XI' album.
The song, originally recorded with the working titled 'Coldplay', also features lyrics from Coldplay's 'Sparks'.
The Brandy song starts "I'm sittin' home on a cold day / Underneath the covers like a little baby I think I wanna hear some Coldplay/ Especially that song where the man says / "Did I drive you away? I know what your sayin'"/ (Yeah, yeah, yeah) / Ooh, whoa, whoa / I know all about your ways."
The Coldplay fascination goes even further. The final track on the album titled 'Should I Go' samples Coldplay's 'Clocks'. Brandy makes no secret of the fact she is a fan of Coldplay. "I think they are one of the greatest bands alive" she told MTV.
