my fav one, strangely is "NorthSide", I like it's
absolutely loose feel and it's silly joyous beat.

it really sounds like a party during a rehearsal.

"Get on the Boat" isn't James Brown imo. Why should it? Because he uses Horns and soloing?

Now that's a good reason! biggrin

Honestly, when I first listened to 3121 and got to track 12, I thought "o.k., now the JB routine is gonna come" because everyone on the org who had heard the leak came up with that. Then I thought WTF: NO WAY IS THIS JB! The song is a Salsa/Mambo jam combined with funk, when has JB ever done that?

I have to admit that I was pleasantly surprised by that latin vibe in the
song. Didn't think I would like that, but it's my fav bit of the song now
