Organ Donor
DJ Shadow featuring Mos Def vs. D-Code Lyrics

'N the mighty feel my lovin'
Playin' a funky solo
Playin'
Playin'
These lyrics are actually a sample from a song called "Gimme Some Lovin'" by The Spencer Davis Group. The sample is used in DJ Shadow's song "Organ Donor," which also features Mos Def (now known as Yasiin Bey) and D-Code. In the original song, the lyrics are "Well my temperature's rising and my feet on the floor / Twenty people knocking 'cause they're wanting some more / Let me in baby, I don't know what you've got / But you'd better take it easy, this place is hot."
In "Organ Donor," the sample is used in a different context. The song is an instrumental track that heavily features a sample of a Hammond organ. The sample is manipulated and distorted to create a gritty, distorted sound that is meant to convey a sense of urgency and intensity. Mos Def's vocals are limited to a few short interjections, such as "Playin'" and "N, 'n," which serve to emphasize the music and add to the overall groove of the track.
Overall, the lyrics in "Organ Donor" are not the focus of the song. Instead, it is the music itself that takes center stage. The sample from "Gimme Some Lovin'" is just one small element in a complex and layered track that showcases DJ Shadow's skill as a producer and musician.
