Play That Funky Music, Whiteboy

[Shaun Ponsonby]

Who here can say, in all honesty, that when a GRATE funk song comes on the stereo system, you can't help but move? Whether it be foot-tapping, some form of hand movement, just plain bopping or a full-on James Brown-esque slinding foot fuck...you can't help but feel the noise. You feel the sound all around.

Best funk song ever?

"Get Up Offa That Thang
Move and you feel better
Get Up Offa That Thang
Try release the pressure"

OW! SO FUNKY!

Yes, it is something innate that turn grown men into rhythmic retards whenever a song of that ilk is heard.

Gotta love it though....

I'd say teh funk song of all time would be either Parliament's "Flashlight", or, The Average White Band's "Pick Up The Pieces"...

I just love James Brown. His death LITERALLY ruined my Christmas. The sellfish bastard died before I got a chance to see him.

I'm gonna hire some of his entourage to be my entourage now he's gone. Particulary his announcer (whose name has escaped me for some reason).

"Ladies and gentlemen, let's call the wooorld's Godfather of SOOOUUUL himself...

JAAAAAAMES BROOOOOWN"


And I'll re-write some of his best-known tunes

"Papas Got a Brand New Box"
"Life Support Machine"
I don't really need to change "Doin' It To Death"






I feel guilty after writing that. Ignore it.
