Funkadelic - Promentalshitbackwashpsychosis Enema Squad

[ShangoDC]

A lot of drugs probably going on here, but this is baddest funk-rock to ever grace the stage! This music was far off of any chart.

[Basisman98]

What was that long word again?

[ClementShimizu]

This is the Occupy Movement's general assembly in a nutshell.

[parksjeffrey14]

@ClementShimizu Yeah, this song best describes the cure to the current GOP's state of MENTAL CONSTIPATION, i.e., EGO-MUNCHIES!!!

[sluggworth1]

OUT TO LUNCH WITH LUNCHMEAT. A MUSICAL BOWEL MOVEMENT.

[sluggworth1]

anyone have a clue bout what george is talkin bout?

[parksjeffrey14]

@sluggworth1 The politics and stereotypes of the time, which we seem to be revisiting presently. Makes you think that we are really stupid to be going BACKWARDS if the GOP gets it's way.

[Radz117]

Does anyone have any fucking idea what this song is about?

[parksjeffrey14]

@Radz117 It is about the politics and society of that time, and it also applies to today's politics and social issues discussion.

[parksjeffrey14]

@Radz117 Yeah, it's about trying to get rid of YESTERDAY'S bullshit thinking that my people were(and still are) indoctrinated with. FREE YOUR MIND AND YOUR ASS WILL FOLLOW!!!

[EFunkRock]

What does "Fried Ice Cream Is a Reality" mean?

[gahrzahk]

@EFunkRock How do you fry ice cream? You cant, but you can buy it at Ihop

[EFunkRock]

@gahrzahk I'll pass. I'd rather ask if "fries go with that shake".

[EFunkRock]

America is in "a mental state of diarrhea / talking shit a mile a minute."

[shagdad76]

this song is about the thoughts between your mind and mouth.

[samuelhorton50]

George has always given us MUSIC to get our shit together with..

[Invisoclam]

[Mr10inchnail]

Black Pink Floyd

[Mr10inchnail]

holy shit ! i've been looking for this THANKS !!!!

[pinchyobuttcheek]

freakshow aka fagshow

[Invisoclam]

The song being "sung" behind the scat references is Garry Shider singing to his wife - that was the original basis of the song - it was deemed too mushy for a Funkadelic song so the promental rap was thrown on top - Go ahead - key in on the underlying song

[TMundo]

i don't know that I'd call it scat, but it sure is some kind of comedy. So it's too mushy a song untill they add some back n forth chorus about dung, the its all good?

[loobycliff]

@Invisoclam I didn't know that! Thanks! This is one the central albums of my life and I never knew it was Garry Shider's lyrics to his wife.

[kingheart120]

@Invisoclam IS YALL SERIOUS ??? SINGING TO HIS WIFE?????? but talking about shit in the background lol... wow.. Since I was in the second grade I was wondering the concept of this song .... I love it

[loonytune324]

Isn't it a love song floating in this anti-crap song? Genius!

[StrongHeartLives]

wheeech one eees george clinton?

[gf3tw]

this song is maaad deep if you listen to the lyrics

[PhuckHue2]

The "which one is Geroge Clinton" line was written by me. I shit you not. I am honored because I am immortalized in the Funk forever. George would never admit to it though. not seeking any royalty. I don't expect anything from 4 words in a song

[bassplayer418]

ON LEAD VOCALS GARY 'STARCHILD'SHIDER 

[audiom]

which one is george clinton 

[PhuckHue2]

@audiom I wrote that

[michaelesq]

george is/was crazy! how could he think of the lyrics? ' one swipe a clean wipe...classic' i love the funk!

[BoonesFrry]

Thank you for this.

[blahdavid]

Our mouths are neurological assholes. (_*_)

[killuminati63]

@blahdavid almost looks like a dude meditating with a paki dot !! haha

[chefkbj]

ITs Gary Shider

[Gamera65]

Garry Shider (R.I.P.) is definitely singing the background vocals. He was interviewed about 10 years ago on radio station KPFA (94.1FM-Berkeley, CA) and he sang the entire backing vocals a capella right there in the station. It was beautiful. You can access this by going to KPFA.org and clicking on the History of Funk radio show, then click the archives for one of the shows in July, 2010. Enjoy!

[soulsetsmysoulonfire]

@Gamera65 Damnit, I went there but you can only hear the shows from the 30th and 23rd of July (which were badass shows BTW). Is Garry Shider on the one from the 2nd of July 2010? thanks for directing me to this kickass radio station!

[manatole1981]

@Gamera65 I just tried to see/hear this - too bad they only keep the archives for two weeks. I would have loved to hear it a capella.

[Pirate7X]

@Gamera65 Gracias C-65 for the neurological enema. Fried Ice Cream is a Reality!

[MINSANEvideos]

Does anyone else think of "The Great Gig in the Sky" by Pink Floyd when they hear this song?

[soulsetsmysoulonfire]

God damnit I am tryiing to figure out what tthe woman is singing.

Any input would be appreciated.

"For love as sweet .......... as ours (or a flower)

"and if I could I'd love you more each hour"

"Loving you has been, so love me til the end"

"Like flowers........ ....... ..... ..... and even more than this"

I am ...... without your kiss"

It's a cold, cruel world alone. .. .. .... .." ---> Repeat

[ajlovescent]

@soulsetsmysoulonfire I don't think that's a woman in the first place I think that's George Clinton singing in a falsetto. But I have a hard time figuring it out too.

[doctorc380]

@ajlovescent That's not a woman or George Clinton. That's Garry Shider (RIP) doin' his Cosmic Slop thang. I used to play this shit over & over as a kid and used to crack up listening to Junie as the nerd in the background, "What was that long word again? Promental?" Promentalshitbackwashpsychosis Enema Squad

[soulsetsmysoulonfire]

@ajlovescent No man. That is definetly a female. Whoever is singing, damn I wanna here it by itself without the talking over it.

[magnumpush]

No Weed Needed. This record will get you high.....

[amandablue1]

@magnumpush *eye to eye*

[starchedownon84s]

@magnumpush I hope p funk doesn't come up in my drug test. Because I overdosed on this song since 1992 and never stopped. BTW i'm only 21. 

[smashface31]

I love this song! Sounds like a Political Love Song stoned gone wrong!

[PinkytheDiva]

This music justified the need to smoke some good weed. A musical bowel movement. This song always made me picture some crazed man standing over a woman that he loved dearly, and killed in some strange way. I was afraid of this song as a child, but now I realize that you just have to be high to deal with it, hell they were. "Which one is George Clinton?"

[250colors]

love this jam its hilarious

[luvrofmusic4ever]

music to get your shit together by....

[koolieduke]

free your mind and your ass will follow

[ninestraycats]

not that you could ever pick a best p-funk song but this would be a contender.

[tubjiji]

Fried Ice Cream IS A Reality

[groeneduim]

@tubjiji

lol did you ever tried fried ice cream?

I heard they have it in Japan, and England, but I never saw it neither ate it.

[SMOOTHPANA]

@tubjiji Damn right it is

[0marigolds]

@tnj2323 this song is so righteous. Great to feature, Funkadelic, Parliament or whatever incarnation, they groove, groove hard and put it out. Young up and coming artists need to pay strong attention to this.

[phoen99rising]

This song had me feeling hungry by the end! Perfect music to be stoned to LOL!

[jazzpoetess]

THIS IS MY SHIIIIT!!!!!!!!!!

[slickmas465]

I Love this song!! Man bring back so much memories another greatest song ever!!

[JimmyC1st]

This is one of my favorite songs from my adultlescent years. I listened to the "One Nation Under a Groove" album, and this really caught my attention. The words are like today's rap songs. George Clinton was ahead of his time.

[mjhedges1]

This shit is inspirational! just funny as hell reminds me of most politicians

[ja22brown]

I'd love to hear the backround vocals by themselves. Brilliant!

[soulsetsmysoulonfire]

@ja22brown

I had exactly the same sentiment! I want to hear the woman sing and the groove by themselves. I 've been trying to figure out what she's singing...it's kind of difficult!

[MrDocktaill]

@ja22brown I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU I ALWAYS WANTED TO HEAR THE VOCALS SEPRATELY THAT WOULD BE A TIGHT SONG,I HOPE GEORGE IS READING THIS AND DOES IT,MAYBE AS A TRIBUTE TO GARY

[ugotstobkidn]

The fear of being eaten by a sammich, Fried ice cream is a reality
