If you're able to keep your feet still while listening to this, you're not really hearing it.

possibly the funkiest song ever written

[karakorum2007]

woah! This is the "original Prince"! and doing funk in the midst of 60´s...Sly is pure dinamite and creation! This is one more proof that current music was mostly powered in the decade of 60´s.

@Cdub2k Then you shoulda clicked on another video and left this one. Remember, if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say nothin'. Sly is tha man!

@TheSentientParadox Cdub2k likes Bieber.

@Cdub2k It's about the MUSIC! Not the superficial image everything is about today. You want superficial? You can have it. And the godawful overproduced garbage noise that comes with it. Peace.

@latincooligan This track was a ground breaking moment in Funk back in 1969 but listen to the sound that James Brown and his band were throwing down live In Dallas on 26th August 1968 /watch?v=Ek9-HGHT1Pk

@latincooligan Yes his early material from the 50's to the mid 60's was rhythm and blues. But his sound evolved to Funk. 1965 was the year he came out with 'Papa's got a brand new bag'. At the time JB released that Sly was still a DJ in San Fransico as well as writing and producing local R&B artists. Another key record in the evolution of Funk is 'Cold Sweat'.
