Haha, all good! The concept of interpolation is definitely a difficult one.
First off, I love the songs that you sent over. These are freaking great.
I think rather than an interpolation, Michael Bublé is actually doing a full "cover" of "On an Evening in Roma (Sott'er celo de Roma)"
This video here does a pretty good job of explaining the difference between covering, interpolating, and sampling a song from a legal perspective.
In short though, usually an interpolation is just when you play (physically play, i.e. not sample) a small snippet of a song within your own song to reference it. Oftentimes, you'll see guitarists in jam bands do it... they're playing a song and then start improvising and might quickly reference another song by playing a little short snippet of the song. That'd be interpolation!
I'm going to make an analogy to writing... Covering a song is a bit like going to write a post and copying someone else's post in it's entirety, whereas interpolating a song is more like quoting a sentence from someone else's post and putting it in your own original post.
I started with JS about 10 years ago and I fell in love with it (even though it can be weird 😅). I had step backs in my career that ended up being good. Currently I'm a passionate front-end developer.
Okay, I think I've got it now, thanks for the video, haha.
Yeah, from time to time you knwo, I hear music and I know that I know the melody from somewhere else... right now I can't fin an example of that but now I get it.
SoI guess that sampling is a thing that tochno and house artists do a lot?

Sampling is def something that techno & house musicians do a bunch. Also, hip hop is big on sampling. The origins of hip hop were built on sampling... you'd have someone DJ'ing records, physically looping the breakbeat in a funk song, and an MC (rapper) rhyming on top of it.
Here's a quick video talking about how it all happened. 🙂
On the note of techno and house musicians, I think Daft Punk is a group that really took sampling to an awesomely artistic place. Here's a video about their album Discovery and why what they did is so special!

I get you, music is something I couldn't live without, If I had to choose between music and web development I would have a really hard time making that choice.
BTW, I have a friend that is a huge fan of Daft Punk, for sure I'll send him that video. Thank you!

Hope that makes sense!

Interesting!

Very interesting videos! The story about Hip-hop was very cool, and the Daft Punk video was extremely insane!
I had to hear Face to Face after watching that part.
Thanks fo watching, Rodrigo!
I get pretty siked about music and can go a little overboard with the suggestions sometimes 😅, so appreciate you taking the time to check out both!
