The story basically writes itself, so I'm not sure why this didn't make it onto the silver screen. They still have the rights to it though, so it could still happen! 4 Ben Affleck was in the video for Jenny from the Block and he credits it as his one regret Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF EPIC Yep, before he was in Gone Girl, he was rubbing and kissing his then girlfriend Jlo's butt, which he said made him look like a "petulant fool." Lol.

11 JLo s Get Right was reworked from a song originally written and recorded by Usher Epic Usher wrote and recorded the song "Ride" with Rich Harrison, but it didn't end up on the Confessions album. Harrison then "reworked" the song for JLo, but they're very similar, which led to Usher seeking a publishing credit.

12 Wonderwall by Oasis was originally called Wishing Stone Creation Noel wrote the track but gave it to his brother to sing, and it shares its name with a '60s psychedelic film that has a soundtrack from Beatle George Harrison. 13 And Blink-182 s What s My Age Again was originally Peter Pan Syndrome MCA The people at Blink's label encouraged them to change it because they thought the reference was too obscure (Peter Pan Syndrome is a term to describe someone who refuses to act like an adult).

14 All Star wasn t originally meant to be used for Shrek and was almost cut from the opening sequence Dreamworks "All Star" had already been on radios for two years, and was only used in Shrek as a placeholder while they tried to track down the perfect song. But when they played the opening sequence to the CEO of Dreamworks, he loved it and suggested they kept it in, which was a good choice, because I can't imagine a world where Shrek and "All Star" don't go hand in hand. 15 And the original lyrics were a lot darker than the ones we know and love – only shooting stars break the mould replaced wave bye-bye to your soul Smash Mouth @smashmouth #TBThursday #tbt Original "All Star" Lyrics by: @GregCampMusic 05:12 PM - 09 Feb 2017 Reply Retweet Favorite Crossing that line out was a good choice, I'm sure you'll agree.

16 Eminem didn t ask Dido for permission before sampling her song on Stan he just went ahead and sent her the finished version Aftermath / Shady / Interscope The iconic chorus was taken from the British singer-songwriter's song "Thank You," but Em didn't go down the traditional collab route.
