Lyrics:
I'm used to
Goin' seven whole days
And not hearing from him
I'm used to
Him unbreaking my heart
Then breaking it again
I'm used to
Him never really being
Man enough for me
Always talking in his sleep but
Never talkin' 'bout me

And it's you
You're making me high
And I don't wanna come down
And it's you
How many ways do I love you
Baby I lost count
And it's you
Since you came I ain't sang
Another sad love song
I'm finally brea-thing again

"Lambada" - Kaoma's dance hit

Lambada is a Brazilian dance. I don't think the Spice Girls were talking about Kaoma's hit on that song.

Flamenco, lambada, but hip-hop is harder
We moonwalk the foxtrot, then polka the salsa

Flamenco, lambada, foxtrot, polka, salsa are all dance.
I think they were talking about lambada as a dance.

Mariah Carey's Inseparable references two songs:

The first one is Billie Holiday's Lady Sings The Blues.

And everything is off
Without you
Guess it's all my fault
Lady sings the blues

And the second one is Cyndi Lauper's Time After Time

Got photos of us on my refrigerator
Videos on my phone; I just can't erase them
The first text I ever got from is still saved in my
Inbox and I read it like time after time

Immediately after that last line, she even interpolates Time After Time and has it fit nicely within the song's tone of desperation and denial.

Original lyric

If you're lost, you can look and you will find me.

Mariah's lyric

Boy, I'm lost, can't you look? Won't you please find me?!

Genius!!!

Mariah Carey actually does this a lot.

Personally, whenever anyone does this, I want to give them a round of applause.

Clever songwriting >>>>>>>>>>>

Here's another one.

2pac's "Skandalouz" makes a reference to Toni Braxton's "Breathe Again." And if you're familiar with Breathe Again...

And if you can take what he's saying literally but not seriously, 2pac's reference is really funny.

The mission's to be a playa, my alias is Boss
Drop a top on these jealous n------, playa let me floss
Y'all don't wanna see me in pain,
I'll leave that ass like Toni Braxton
Never breathing again.

Drake - The Real Her (ft. Lil Wayne & Andre 3000)

Andre 3000's part towards the very end:

Well, sitting here sad as hell
Listening to Adele, I feel you baby
Someone like you, more like someone unlike you

Foxy Brown - Get Me Home

Ta-Ta's perkin, You're Makin Me High
like Toni, work me, take me I'm hot

She even references Toni Braxton, so she is purposely referring to the song. It's not just a coincidence like many of you are posting.
