Oh I know this one...Prince

But seriously, I misread it at 1st and thought he was asking what was the funkiest song made by white artists. I had a short list ready.

What?!? Taught me something playa. Didnt know that. I guess it was the 'Naw naw naw' part that made me think otherwise. Just looked up that vid on youtube. Now I'm wondering if it was one of those things that I knew about a long time ago and forgot. Thanks

Nothing white about this cut,,,,,for a long time I thought they were some black dudes from the midwest. Turned out they were a bunch of white dudes from Europe lol

I don't think I'll EVER get tired of this song.

Love is just like the faucet
It turns off and on
Sometimes when you think it's on baby
It has turned off and gone

One sloppy simple funky ass jam, but yeah the album cover i think has two pale goofy white guys on a bright sunny set like with a rainbow and a beach ball or something.

Whatever, this is a classic funk track

I don't get the question. I know tons of funky white musicians: Thomas Dolby; Medeski Martin & Wood; Wa Wa Nee; Stock, Aitken & Waterman; Peter Gabriel; Doyle Bramhall II; the Peterson family; Stevie Ray Vaughan; Jonatha Brooke; Wendy & Lisa; David Bowie; Harry Connick Jr. Numerous more examples of white not equaling the absence of funk.

I'm probably looking too deeply here, but flip the colors and some Orgers would be clamoring for someone to be banned.
