My wife (who's from Dayton) was shocked that I'd never heard this song. One day, we were over a friend's house and he downloaded it real quick so I could hear it. I thought it was completely ridiculous. lol

lol Just thinking, that anytime I do a gig or show, I always have that line in my head: granny's voice: "Do we get paid for this? I wanna know! We do? Ok, ok. Alright."

I also have one of my puppets, who is a caterpillar, dance and sing along with this song all the time. lol


Ok, I've said too much. eek

Again, "Player's Ballin" is on another level. Even though I like Funky Worm, and it is kinda funny, it's not a cut that I EVER think of when I think of The Ohio Players.

That song was the West Coast rappers standard for sampling back in the late 80's and most of the 90's. I can't even count how many of those West Coast cats borrowed that funky syth in that song.
