"Superstition" by Stevie is the Funkiest Jam of All Time It is | |

Actually I think "F-U-N-K" or "Dedicated to the Press" by Betty Davis owns that title, but "Superstition" is up there! | |

No. It is a great cut, but not the funkiest of all time. It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.

I'll have to think about that. I'm fickle in the sense that I really can't choose just one track above the rest. Hell, I can't even make a top 10 list without it being completely different just the next day.

I wouldn't go that far. "Knee Deep" or "Erotic City" would be my top picks before "Superstition". Don't get me wrong, I love the song but it is definitely not "I Wish". **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-

definately not of all time...{and i love stevie...perhaps more than prince in actuality...i was rasied on stevie and stevie alone until age 10}...but as far as Stevie is concerned i think "Maybe your Baby" is worlds funkier [Edited 5/30/07 10:38am] | |

You Haven't Done Nothing is funkier than Superstition IMHO.
btw, had you all heard the origins of Superstition, it was supposed to be for Jeff Beck, but Stevie liked it too much and kept it. much to the chagrin of Beck of course | |

Supposedly it was Motown's decision to release his version as a single, which Stevie begged them not to do because of his promise, to which the label said "Are you crazy?" | |

I'm going to agree with both datdude and SirPsycho. "Maybe Your Baby" and "You Haven't Done Nothing" are both funkier songs... not that "Superstition" isn't funky, because it is. "Whitney was purely and simply one of a kind." ~ Clive Davis | |

Superstition is a nice jam. I like boogie rae woman and higher ground better.
I would say those songs are funkier than superstition. Don't laugh at my funk

What about Too High as Funk or is that more jazzy. PRINCE: Always and Forever
MICHAEL JACKSON: Always and Forever ----- Live Your Life How U Wanna Live It | |

It's jazzy funk and the template for jamiroquai's whole career - not a bad thing | |

Not the funkiest of all time, but it's def. one of the funkiest songs ever. "And When The Groove Is Dead And Gone, You Know That Love Survives, So We Can Rock Forever" RIP MJ 
"Baby, that was much too fast"...Goodnight dear sweet Prince. I'll love you always | |

Love this song, but I agree, it's not the funkiest (by Stevie or of all time).
I nominate James Brown's I Don't Want Nobody To Give Me Nothing or Licking Stick. | |

It's definitely one of the BEST songs of all time  Stevie could do no wrong in the 70s.He was on fire! | |

Agreed. For me, probably the funkiest tracks ever (today in Miles' Funkland anyway  ) have to be James Brown's 'Papa's Got a Brand New Bag' full version, with Maceo blowin', and the full studio version of 'Cold Sweat', tho the 'Live at the Apollo 2' live version is also very strong. Surely these are the twin funk motherloads to which all others must bow.
'Superstition' is imo by far Stevie's funkiest song and true funk classic tho. Stevie's drumming, the horns and those meshing clavinets just lay it on down. | |
