I found this in a music blog today, and thought I might share. For those of you that didn't know, in the song Sleepyhead by Passion Pit, Passion Pit sampled this I Irish song: "Óró Mo Bháidín" by Mary O’Hara.

GIve it a listen, its actually pretty cool.
OH, and original song for those of you who haven't heard it:

I bet Passion Pit hoped this would never surface, so they could take credit for the really mellow, nice melody

It's obviously a sample are you stupid? Do you really think they'd come up with a melody, record it, speed it up, raise the pitch and then put a high pass filter on? They would just play it on a keyboard or something.
