Pretty sure it's Michael Bland. According to that recent interview he did. | |

wouldn't associate it too much with funk though... What is rock about the Wall of Berlin? What because it has a guitar in it? Some of you are hilarious I'm gonna have to go with you on this one. It may be a lot of things, but 'rock' ain't one. Ordinary, might be one? Thread bare, might be another? Maybe it's the title? He should have gone with 'The One U Wanna Skip'. 
....I am being a little harsh. I'll wait for the album before I pass final judgement. | |

I now this is probably a simple comparison
And artist usually do recycle their own lyrics/lines I love this song And it's funny how you hear similarities in his songs 3121 ends talking about the wall of Berlin Bounce party y'all. It's going down people - Like the wall of Berlin. Don't you wanna come? 3121. It's gonna be so much fun. (Yes it is.) 3121 That's where the party be. 3121. You can come if you want to, but y'all can't never leave. It's going down y'all. Like the wall of Berlin. | |

Like so many songs its hodgepodge. I too think the title of the song is dated... but it works despite that. Dance... Let me see you dance | |

the guitar soloing is beginning and in the background he goes: "knock it baby!" And the part where he says, "where am I?".  Yup, I like that one too"Hyperactive when I was small, Hyperactive now I'm grown, Hyperactive 'till I'm dead and gone"

Universe of paradoxical design Reality merely in the mind In my head or in some German town She said “you want a four leafed clover in the ground” Ain’t superstitious and eye don’t believe in luck Eye heard the thunder before the lightning struck Couldn’t read the writing cause it was so small But according to the document she got on the wall She is down, like the Wall of Berlin Eye come round about a quarter to ten We just met, oh at least we pretend It’s so fresh knocking down the Wall of Berlin Where am eye? Galaxy of monumental delight Or parallel hologram copyright The car comes unexpected like a mother in the park The sound of a train, it erupts the question mark I Like it Who r u gonna b 2night baby? Is that the queen of Sheba or an alien dream The marks on the table say somewhere in between Not one for rituals but one thing eye’ve found Everything’s better when your come around We get down, like the wall of Berlin Eye come round about a quarter to ten We just met, oh at least we pretend It’s so fresh knocking down the Wall of Berlin Dance... Let me see you dance | |

i think it is:
The sound of a train interrupts the question mark it's time for a new direction / it's time for jazz to die | |
