List of musical medleys : ウィキペディア英語版 | List of musical medleys
In music, a medley is a piece composed from parts of existing pieces, usually three, played one after another, sometimes overlapping. They are common in popular music, and most medleys are songs rather than instrumental. A medley which is a remixed series is called a megamix, often done with tracks for a single artist, or for popular songs from a given year or genre. A medley is the most common form of overture for musical theater productions. In Latin music, medleys are known as ''potpourrís'' or ''mosaicos''; the latter were popularized by artists such as Roberto Faz and Billo Frómeta, and most commonly consist of boleros, guarachas, merengues or congas. == Examples of medleys == Medleys that have reached the Top 20 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 singles chart include: * "Devil with a Blue Dress On"/"Good Golly Miss Molly" by Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels.
