@mostlyoldies: "Under Pressure" is a song by the British rock band Queen and singer David Bowie. Originally released as a single in October 1981, it was later included on Queen's 1982 album Hot Space. The bass line, performed by Queen bassist John Deacon, was famously sampled by Vanilla Ice in his 1990 song “Ice Ice Baby.” Ice added only one different note, and tried to pass it as an entirely different composition. Things were tense around “Ice Ice Baby”—the song went to #1 but Ice hadn’t credited Queen or Bowie. Queen and Bowie sued and won—they received a settlement and had their names added to the writing credits.
