Paul McCartney when researching songs for Mary Hopkins,
namely "those were the days my friend" came across an old
Russian tango called "Work Out" which paised the Soviet workers
and the strengths of the Workers Unions to resolve industrial
disputes by peaceful negotiation. He changed the chords from
minor to major and "Work Out" the tango anthem that extolled
how to maintain harmony amongst industrial workers was turned
into a Western love song. True story.
