Funk me sideways {Funky Cody Friday}

Posted about 3 years ago

This post is for our Cody, who is sorely missed already. There are myriad things that connects each one of us to him, and I think that each one of those things qualifies as a reason for his future return. I do believe that he will return, we just love him that much, and I raise my glass to that.

This is merely an appetizer to Funky Friday {you guys do it so much better than I ever could}, but I think that it makes for a good way to get things going. Sorry, no mp3. Push the play button in the video, enjoy, and, for crying out loud, bring the funk!

When it's on the one, you know the funk's begun

When you are down and out, there is no doubt

You need the funk, just bring the funk

Now what's the problem, everybody's got them

Just get the hole out of your soul

And bring the funk, bring me the funk

Well stay black, stay white

Stay brown get on down

Just bring the funk

Well it's got to be solid, that's what you call it

Funk me up funk me down

Funk me sideways funk me all ways

Bring the funk!

    Anna,  its 07:30 and this + coffee = deadmandeadman bouncin' around soundin' like a bag of jittery castanets.  It ain't pretty,  but its fun.

    Jeff, yay! I had coffee in the glass that I raised hehe

    No such thing as un-pretty castanets!

    Glad you think so, Greg and Mark. You made this funk imbecile smile :)

    Well, I wasn't really planning on it, but I suppose I haven't done any lily-white post-punk-funk posts in too long. To the lab!

    Yeah, Cody's sorely missed 'round these parts, ain't he ma'am?? Well, as you've demonstrated, he's left us a great funk ethic to keep alive!

    That's the bitter truth, sir...

    We'll do our best to keep his funk warm for when he returns!

    Warm? We're gonna keep it hot! (BTW, is it hot in here, or is it just me?) Solid choice, Anna. Mr. Harper is def in the trad.

    Uhh, that's the 'fattest' funk tune so far this friday. Cody will surely come back.

    I guess I have to come up with another funk post to keep the flow going, muahahaha.

    Mikey, damn right! Straight from the oven. {It's not an "or" situation...it's hot in here, and you're hot, too :) } Thank you very much!

    You're welcome, Chocodile (what's your name btw?). Hopefully, we won't have to miss him for long.

    I promise to do my best :)

    Hermes, aww thanks! That put a big smile on me face!

    Do it do it, and let the funky times roll!

    Uncle A, funkYAY! That made me feel really good!

    GarageRock, EXCELLENT choice. When making the post I was between RATM, Daft Punk, and what I posted. I'm glad that you posted it!

    G, um WOW. Hot stuff, my friend! I feel that my post is about to explode....thank you!

    Galen, YES! As Barry White kinda said, I'm qualified to funktify you. Well, not really, but I'm trying to learn :)

    Anna, why you asking me to bring the Funk? You the Funk ambassador today, and nothing I bring will even qualify up against this stuff.

    Wow, thank you so much, Ben. I now almost feel comfortable enough to do it again (my funk powers are limited)! :)

    The more the funkier!
