[menelith1]

Grad school at Western, jammin' with the woman I should have married, great memories.

[ACCOUNTANTB]

[mmjaljs]

[rapeyokids123]

Thumbs up if good burger brought you here!

[nightrider2999]

@rapeyokids123 hell yea i just saw it a hour ago

[Phunkville]

Recently demanded the DJ at a wedding to quit playing his bullshit because the dance floor was EMPTY and play Knee Deep. He refused for two more songs as dust gathered on the dance floor. Finally he played the song and within a minute there were 4 girls dancing with ME. DJ told me he would never do a gig again and not play Knee Deep.

Could this be me, immersed in funk so deep?

[dirtylilpig98]

this type of music will never get old i played it at a party ppl still got up and danced their asses off : )

[firstkia50]

I remember when this came out. That was a party. We jammed so hard in that old house, the floor almost gave in. They moved the speakers outside, the party moved outside and people were running there cars, trucks in the ditch to get to the party. PARLIAMENT, FUNKADELIC, BOOTSY COLLINS, SIR NOSE, ONE NATION WAS DEFINITELY UNDER A GROOVE THAT NIGHT. WOW!!!! WHAT A PARTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[firstkia50]

HERE WE GO!!!

[1andreph]

Phillippe Wynne hung out singing with George Clinton in the early days before he joined The Spinners and came back to sing with his friend George, I was there when Phillippe had a heart attack he will always be solrely missed. Everytime I hear this song I hear him no matter who is singing it today.

[dorababyboy]

9:44-9:49 De La Soul's Me, Myself, and I sample

[sgibau]

this was def a masterpiece we rocked a party all night with eight songs and three were funkadelic classics the guitar is off the chain bmorefresh

[thines01a]

[sluggworth1]

[Footsniffer51]

Phillppe Wynne's adlib MADE this the cut that it is! He left The Spinners and took off!

[andygriffin4231]

Goodburger! 

[gatorlos55]

This is exactly why pluto is no longer a planet, the plutorians just would not funk, or deeper still get knee deep...so K-zar had to execute great wrath upon them with furious anger. Now their planet is just a star.

[calcan2too]

One of my sisters or Brother had this album

[tjfarri1]

This brings back some memories! I was preteen and we would dance so hard to this.

[seand67]

@tjfarri1 LOL, I was a lil kid myself and couldn't afford the complete album, so I rocked the 45 single which had parts 1 and 2 of the song, and it was STILL too short!!

[The7legacy]

@tjfarri1

Yeah, brings back so many memories.

It almost brought me to tears. Jr. high school days, jolly rangers, atari, lunch boxes.

Those were the days.

[MrHannastyle]

If you werent bumpin this in ya ride at the carwash, you wasnt bumpin S**T, or in whoever's car you got to take and wash, (just keepin it real), but it had to be the long version, my dad had a van in those days so I just knew I was the coolest lil cat.......couldnt tell me nuthin!!!

[seand67]

@MrHannastyle Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed this classic.

[lvn4life]

"Make no mistake, this funky got what it takes!"

[usaSAVAGE]

Black Folks should have kept the Funk and Soul in their music, Rap music has Fucked their Shit up !

they played this Jam at my prom in " 81 "

[Jojos415]

I love this entire song, but most of all I love 7:00-9:45!!!

[swtldyiam]

Beaumont over here class of 83, I used to jam to this song all the time.

[randee53161]

the 1st time i ever heard Paliment/Funkadelic ..i was 13,i was the friend of a friends house listening to The Mothership Connection album...IMMEDITELY I WAS FUNKDAFIED!!!!! to the point they left me in his house for hrs, their parents had to call my parents to come get me because I would not leave!!!true story

[RemofRenaissance]

Ants in my pants and I need to dance... A-ha! Love it

[menelith1]

This is quintessential George Clinton. Love it, brings back great memories.

[mikedallaslat]

[jwjones967]

[ttomas2424]

Hi Again : That guitar portion: Love It.........At 10:30.

[ttomas2424]

Something about this music make me want to do It again........

UNCLE JAM WANTS YOU!

[mrlove1961]

This jam always gets "INTO MY PANTS"!!!

[MrBillc1023]

I can remember when this came out! My friends and I were hosting a party at our apartment party room in Memphis and we had been serving PGA punch all night long along with other party favors. When we played this, everybody hit the dance floor singing the intro and the hook. We partied so hard that the walls were sweating and they wouldn't let us use the party room again. They just don't do it like that any more. Classic!

[craigfromnewcastle]

Just don't make them like this any more.

Undiluted Funk from the Mothership :D

[TerrenceA1]

My older sister had this jam. I had to be about 10

[kwreck0022]

classic funk anthem

[karonhiio1992]

if this song doesn't make you want to get up and dance, there's something wrong with you.

[TerrenceA1]

[jazdawariaty]

[LimaSeta]

I used to like this music,but then I took an arrow in the knee deep...

[GoodSydeBill]

@LimaSeta I use to have an arrow to knee , until I played Skyrim and met tons of digital fellow beings that also took an arrow to knee , so it took my arrow to the knee back , so now I still actually have an arrow to the knee, like you.

[EightOhOners]

@GoodSydeBill what are you talking about??

[Sirkinney]

something about the music!

[Sirkinney]

This song is still the shit. It could come out today and make the top 10. "and when she dance, she sets the world on fire." "oh no not the moose." lol. Tight.....tight.

[AlphonsoW3]

@starfish621 hit the road dude your ignorance is showing...

[bokeemo1]

Glory be, the funk's on me. Reminds me of my high school Beaumont High in the Lou. This is the greatest funk cut of all time. I feel blessed to have been in high school when this song came out. The funk could knock your socks off your shoes.

[SuperSoulSeeker]

@bokeemo1

Holy crap! Beaumont! Blue and Gold.

I wasn't too far from you. Central HS. Natural Bridge in the house!

[comando0220]

Brooklyn, NY. Crown Heights! Downtown at The Warehouse. Plenty of room to get off. You had to go hard to even keep up with this jam. Thanks Paul Bias you were a good friend.

[Djrealign]

i appreciate the p-funk so much, they were talkin but.............we sure wasn't listening! and now that i do class is always in session!

[bloykunker]

Is it possible for a song to embody,maintain and reflect all aspects of honey thick funk until the end of time without getting stale? If we were to come back to Earth in 600 years would people still be sweating to this cut on the dance floor?

[Biggace]

After all these years, this joint is still crack!!!!!

[fireincense]

YeAAH!!!!!!! this my jam!  this was my favorite song when I was 7. Thanks for posting! God Bless YOU!

[hemirick426]

Micheal Hampton baby!!!!!!!!!

[SOULJATWIN]

I'm 22 I LOVE FUNKY OL SKOOL MUSIC I WOULD DANCE TO THIS NEVER GETS OLD

[MysticSonic007]

who did the guitar solo in the middle of the song?

[chunkadelic1]

@MysticSonic007 Micheal Hampton

[Chillzwell]

Whenever radio stations have a countdown of the all time greatest dance jams, this is more often than not NUMERO UNO! How long that will last is anyones guess, but the fact that George Clinton's funk is still holding it down after all these years should tell you something. No one has or ever will do it better!

[darrellfulp]

Cleveland Ohio jams out with the FUNK....OH YEA... real music for real people

[delgadojohn022207]

one of the MOST underrated bands in history!!!

[elray48]

I was only 19 when this jam came out, and I don't know about the rest of the world, but north minneapolis had more house patries than anywhere during this era of P-Funk.! Thanks people!!!!!!

[kissmylipsification]

dancin!!!!!

[cadburyenglishman]

My niggers, I remember entering my first high school Dance at Serramonte High School in Daly City, California, it was September 1979, and man that was the first dance I'd ever gone to, and the DJ was playing this tune, and the place was thumpin' and rockin! Thanks for the memories Seand67 and Funkadelic! This has got to be one of the most iconic soul funk tunes of the 20th century. Peace, love, and prosperity to all!

[Bigbasssix1972]

I so adore hearing Phillippe scat!!

[firstchoice1956]

Its been in my head"AGAIN" for 2 days now... I wonder what will happen when I play atomic dog or maggot brain!!! ILMAO.... Tru Soul, Funk, Dance, Jam Get down and party music....

[firstchoice1956]

This is Classick Funk that had you Jammin. If you were not in shape before you heard this song, then you were once you danced to it! And , and The Brother from the Spinners is singing in this cut as well. So we know there was definate continuity with the singers and music masters back then to make it all r o l e with alotta soul.Thank you for the post.... I am Jammin!!!

[seand67]

[sierria64]

[CaribouRancher]

Thanks, this long-version is virtually impossible to find anywhere.

[kdbs19]

i love this song my school marching and jazz band play the fuk out this song

[ecey9458]

this my MF theme song.

[shadesmagazine]

We were all over the skating floor / disco floor on this one, "THE FULL 15 MINUTE VERSION" at top speed and still wasn't tired. Well, if you put it on now, "A FULL 15 SECONDS ON THE FLOOR" and a good massage afterward will do just fine.

[MinisterLynne]

Who's playing the guitar?

[kissmylipsification]

@MinisterLynne That's Michael Hampton One of his most celebrated performances is the lead guitar solo on the Funkadelic hit single "(Not Just) Knee Deep" from 1979, as well the title track to the Brides Of Funkenstein's second album Never Buy Texas From A Cowboy.

[TheNewsoul2]

They would play this at the teen disco I went to when they were closing down and all the dancers hit the floor on this on. You had to have great stamnia to last on this on song and very few kids could last on Knee Deep.

[MsSexymocha19]

My mother loves this song....and dances all her old school dances and tells stories of her elementary school days(I guess that's when this song was out for her)!

[AtoOOniko]

only 15 minutes ????? why?? !!!!

[millionairewebmodel1]

[mschardyc]

@DaFunkee1 right,start off dancing for 5 minutes,go rest for 5, and come back to end the song lol!!

[KLd141423565]

[penmastertoch]

The greatest song ever recorded!

[Lar112]

MAN!!!!! At long last the Extended version of this PFUNK classic!!!! I am stunned!!! Thank you for posting this!!!!!

[penmastertoch]

@Lar112 No, this is not the extended version, my friend. It is the original album version. Any radio station who plays the short version should have their license revoked and be kicked off the air. It is a sin to play the short version of this Funk MASTERPIECE!!!

[wellnesswithdeb]

THANK-YOU! For this long version...all these years I had no idea the lead vocals were the lead singer of the Spinners. Sounds soooooo MUCH better than the short version.

[seand67]

@wellnesswithdeb You're welcome

[MsEtherial]

@wellnesswithdeb Awwww funkay-funkay!!!! I love this!

[Lanerena]

@wellnesswithdeb

Me & my friends used to go out & dance this entire length of this song. Of course that 25+ years & pounds ago!

What memories, brings tears to my eyes & ants to my pants!!!!

[MzSherice]

@wellnesswithdeb--- Phillipe Wynn was co-lead along with Garry Shider... Garry really owned this cut... his vocals were just overpowering...
