Billboard's article on interpolations:
Bryson Tiller, "Don't" (2015) int. Mariah Carey, "Shake It Off" (2004)
Get Lifted: Bryson Tiller’s bright-eyed debut single switches up the messenger of the chorus but stays true to the cadence and tune of Mariah Carey’s 2005 hit in his second verse: “Girl, said he keeps on playin’ games/ And his lovin’ ain’t the same.”
Why It Works: He pays homage to an R&B-turned-pop classic while providing some continuity to the original storyline, as Tiller hears the cries of a woman whose relationship has run its course and consults him in distress while he cunningly contemplates how to help her move on.
Bigger Than Original? That would be quite the stretch, considering “Don’t” was Tiller’s first-ever single, which eventually broke into the top 20 of the Hot 100, and “Shake It Off” peaked at No. 2 for six weeks (once held off by Carey’s own “We Belong Together,” marking her as only one of six acts at the time that held the top two positions on the chart.) -- H.M.

Mariah Carey, "We Belong Together" (2004) int. Bobby Womack, "If You Think You're Lonely Now" (1982) & The Deele, "Two Occasions" (1987)
Get Lifted: In the gut-punch second verse of Mariah Carey's bar-raising heartbreak ballad, the singer starts scanning the radio dial for distraction from her anguish, but only finds Bobby Womack and Babyface pining along with her -- which she briefly sings along to ("If you think you're lonely now..." "I only think of you...") before snapping out of it and changing the channel.
Why It Works: Carey understands better than anyone the way pop music tends to pours gasoline on our more extreme emotions -- and as she quickly lapses into these classic-but-not-clichéd '80s hits, she increases the flammability of her own torch song tenfold.
Bigger Than Originals? Bigger than all but a handful of songs in pop history, as "We Belong Together" conquered the Hot 100 for 14 weeks in 2005. -- A.U.

Very proud of Jade Ewen. She did a great job with the Mariah role. They take a lot of creative liberties with dates and different details, but since it’s mainly about what a hot mess Luis is (just like she said in her book lol) there’s not a lot to the Mariah plot, other than it being passionate and a little volatile (he’s very sensitive and erratic, again, just like she wrote about lol)
But Jade did a great job on Oh Holy Night & Impossible, I think she def channeled Mariah.
