When Dire Straits recorded "Money For Nothing" they came up with that wicked chorus "I want my, I want my, I want my MTV," which was actually a direct rip off of the Police "Don't stand so, don't stand so close to me."
Luckily, Sting was actually recording in the next studio, so they dragged him down the hall, got him to perform the line, and then gave him a songwriting credit.
