Great thread, bro
Skimmed thru the lot of them, and here are the ones I instantly recognized... 1. Cameo (Why Have I Lost You) 3. Prince & The Revolution (a dialog between Wendy & Lisa at the beginning of Computer Blue) 5. Earth, Wind & Fire (All About Love) 7. Rick James (Fire & Desire) 10. Parliament (Chocolate City) 18. The Commodores (Just To Be Close To You) 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 was too focus on Spoonie Gee & Kurtis Blow I knew if i threw those two in there it wolud take the focus off of JB. “So squirm -- with discomfort -- wiggle and cough (hack!), Six days of madness, hah! You might throw me off. Curse me in name! Defy me in speech! , But you'd pick me up right now if I were in your reach”. I was certain the lyric content along would give it away. so i went left field with the rappers to try and throw everyone off. the way it's written you would think it was rap. Sponnie Gee colud be associated w/Herion use. Kurtis Blow could be associated with Cocaine (girl). thanks for tellin' me that. It lets me know it worked. | |
