    Can't argu with that.

    But for my George Clinton is God!

  • george's voice isn't sounding so good :(

  • @stottweiler probly cuz he's old 

  • Hahaha

    "I don't know why..."

    "But he is.."

    "I learned a lot.."

    I don't think Sly's too good at coming up with things on the spot, haha. He's enough of a bamf to get away with it, though. :P

  • where he get the hair from?

  • Wish some one had P-Funk's "America Eats It's Young" album and upload it! THAT was one of their greatest collection goin' or coming.

  • I know this aint a good time, but I didnt know you was 67, I thought you was a 5th grader

  • Happy B'Day Dr Funkenstein, party UP on the Mothership.

  • the new sir nose looks weird whats the deal with sir nose any way some one inform me

  • no one ever told you about the pinocchio theory? listen: if you fake the funk, you're nose'll grow.

  • @nooloo3000 You had to be there. Kind of like Flava Flav's clock. Clinton's mind was so expansive he had to delegate funkness. There was Sir nose,diaper boy,Bootsy Collins,the list goes on. Something would be a lyric,next concert,it was personified onstage. This is the Leonard Bernstien of funk.

  • well said frusciante

  • i am a 100% funk fan.. thats one reason why i make hiphop beats.

  • without george clinton...they would be no hip-hop

  • i wanna be just like George Clinton when i get to 67

    ^_^

    TREY STONE

    The Undisputed Truth

  • @TSTONE101 huh?

  • Frusciante my friends, Is like the greatest funk guitarist even tho he don't play a ton of funk these days. Georgel Clinton is amazing

  • lol frusciante, sly couldn't say anything-but leave it to the super hippie to be so well spoken.

  • some friends........ SANTANA! SLY! THE GREAT WU!!!!?? must get grubby fingers on.,...

  • White anglo saxon and not one for the new stuff out today, I could watch and listen to George Clinton's material for a long ime... Imagine a concert tour with these folks and the Moody Blues.???? I guarantee you they, like the wolfman, would hit a record high...

    Tom in Utica

  • Why... why did you start this saying white anglo saxon?

    HEY IM A MARTIAN AND I LIKE EGGS!

    I'm so against the stereotype I made up!

    Or not, I really don't know why you said that.

  • You sound genuinely concerned and I will be delighed to discuss it with you on private emails after Monday AM;;

    I know you can count on gentlemanly from me..and your comments,very tempered, tell me I can expect it from you , too

    Tom in Utica

  • Dr. Funkinstien,,..the one and only and can not be duplicated if they do we will not RESPECT none of yall copy cat clowns!

    Its only one Black Funk Master get that in your head.

  • I'm a funktastic funkateer from the ol' s-cool. George is so funky, even his stanky toe jam jams ! Jus some straight out shtanky commode funk ! Homeboy so funky, his beard done did the electric slide to other side ! George is an old grey haired jiggafunk that can't hardly talk any more, but he be screechin out his funky anthems anyway.

  • Whoa what is up with Sly Stone? He looks cooked.

  • I love GC. hes such a cool quirky person

  • I did a celebrity request from George Clinton back in 2002 for a donation for a charity and George Clinton answered back and he is cool, and love his website, it is spaced far out, right on to you George Clinton.

  • What a beautiful man...! This is getting old with style and joy...

  • When I found out he's color blind, his hair made sense!

  • Dr. F-f-f-f-Funkenstein!

  • george clinton's voice sounds a lot like yoda from star wars man that's weird man!!! it's like exactly the same!

  • that's because he's a MASTER! master of funk! in another galaxy, the mothership connection. can you tie it all together...starwars and mothership connection...all about SPACE! they both have the FORCE! GOD BLESS GEORGE CLINTON, the greatest funkmaster!

  • nice hair

  • KIDD FUNK!!!!the greatest the king of funk!!!

  • George Needs a reality show.

  • hahahah im sure that's interestin'

  • george sounds like howlin wolf!

  • george....my daddy.....he's the best

  • All I wanted to say here (before I ran into all the unqualified comments and diagnosis about George's voice) is, George Clinton & Sly Stone together is as great a pairing of genius as any in history.

  • Absolutely!

  • I heard that!

  • George Clinton,67...he's gonna outlive us all!

  • I ain't about to make excuse about what G' do...it iz what ever the funk it is, whether you dig it or not is cool that's why we are who we are and you are simply you! To all who had some slick shit to say : Sa'D Ali

  • is he still on drugs?

  • ummmm yes. I saw him a few months ago though and he is going strong.

  • I frickin love George lol God bless the funk...President of the Funk

  • george clinton is the man, hes down with shavo

  • shit godddamn! get off ya azz n jam!

  • My musical HEROES George Clinton & Sly Stone are a little burnt from years of messy with the drugs with age/time. I love this guy and I hope he has many more birthdays to come. It was a sad time for die hard funk fans when we lost Rick James. We do not want loose George Clinton too. Funk on tubers!!!

  • What do you know? YOU are sad. George's voice has been sounding like that for years. Probably due to him singing "We want the Funk!" and others like "Shit, Gottdamn, Git off your ass and jam" at the top of his voice, all over the world, for nearly 40 years!! YOUR sad ass pro'lly don't have no idea of what The Funk is. Have you ever been to a P-Funk concert and have George look you in the eye from on stage, give you the funk sign and say "Everybody sang it, gagagooga, gagagoo gagagoo ga ga?"

  • Damn! I messed up the transliteration of the chant from "Night of the Thumpasaurs People". Must be "the pipe" I'm hitting. I'll get this one right, though; Psychoalphadiscobetabioaquadol­oop. Seriously, I'm not promoting drug use, but there is a history of the relationship between drug use and musical genius. At one time, straight, clean Jazz musicians all over the world thought it was necessary to develop heroin addictions to be able to play like Charlie Parker, Miles Davis and other greats.

  • Yes, but then there is Stevie Wonder, Prince etc.that reminds us that genius lives by itself.

  • True. True.

  • Dizzy Gillepsie, Duke Ellington, Sonny Rollins, Clifford Brown, Charles Mingus ... are Jazz Greats that didn't need drugs

  • It's the truth! And people wrestle with it. George is one of the greats, sometimes with greatness theres pitfalls!

  • Often imitated but never duplicated, unless sampled. George C.

  • man george's voice is shot years of all thaty hollering and crack abuse sadly gc's still hooked on the rock surprised sly stone came out the batcave well guess he got high too good that they're both here too bad hendrix never saw the age of 60 let alone 30. as for the new drummer this band is always changing p funk spawned many musicians.

  • He must be doing something right he has the mind of a teenager and he will see 100 I guarantee it.

  • Happy Belated birthday George. thank you for all of your contributions. Thanks for letting us "Free our minds". Thank you for the Funk. Thanks for the Mothership,

  • What happened?

    I went to woodstock '99 pre riots... on Georges birthday. THAT MADE ME LOVE HIM MORE. all of a sudden, I am wrong? Come on G-Dog, what happened to the dog in you?

  • @Flamengo1981, Tim Maia is OK, but not an all-round game changer/paradigm shifter like George Clinton.

  • If you know P-FUNK you would know it started in the early 50's and for you to say Tim whats his name? is FUNKIER than George I'd put the pipe down!

  • John Frusciante the best guitarist alive

  • Frusciante is musical nirvana incarnate. And we need the funk.

  • @MLK1800

    jimi hendrix is still the best.

  • @imorie12 He said the best guitarist ALIVE smart-ass

  • @imorie12 you are so so so right

  • @MLK1800 and you hooked up with the funky monks

    voondebah

  • Where the hell is Franky and Rico in this clip, they are the number one and two drummers. Who is this new cat, George you don't need any other drummers, you've got two of the best in Franky and Rico! Who's this new cat, a family member or something? G-MAG

  • George is such a beautiful mind. He and his music changed my life. The least I can do is buy the new record when it comes out. Cheers George!!! I love you.

  • George is so cool! : )

    And nice to hear anything from john!

    Last time was like, umm, 3 months ago :P

  • Oh, George, we love you.

  • great clip, i just missed it on tv!

    i'm really excited about the new album, and certainly now i know frusciante and the chilis, the wu tang clan and lots more collaberated with him on it. i really want to hear it.

  • John Frusciante's comments are good to hear.

  • yeah, i agree. I just hope George got his cake.
