I feel the same way, but for me it's the lead singer's voice. It make me want to tear my ear drums out.

Just saw a perfume commercial in between the Vikings-Bears game

featuring Funky Space Reincarnation from Marvin Gaye's Here My Dear album.

What a coincidence.

I saw that commercial too

I like it................but it sounds like a dance club song.

FunK? Not in my book.

Catchy lil tune though.

I like this...I really do...

Andy you right! This is an ass shaker!

I thought you said Maroon 5 was funkier than Prince

Well, obviously its no "Purple and Gold" but...

MJ riff at the very end

okay, by and large they aren't, but this song is funkier than anything Prince has done since....probably something on Emancipation.

Maroon 5 is one of those bands that I like,but I haven't bought any of their music yet.I'm sure at some point in the future,I'll become a huge fan and get the albums that I missed.

think it ain't?

Just because you have one funk song on your album does not mean that you are "funkier than Prince"..lets not get it twisted.

I cant stand when people say someone is better than someone else because of one song copying their style.. Reminds me of that whole The Dream "Yamaha" thread..NOTHING on the rest of that album was Prince like other than Yamaha....but could write off Beginning Endlessly, Act Of God, Compassion, Sticky Like Glue in one minute because of one song....

Now..I love Maroon 5, and they have their funky moments, but that's about it.

Co-sign they are a good band but as far as Funk they are not at P's level. Some some of you orger are going to look back and see the last 3 Prince CDs are filled with great funk tracks.

Those 20Ten songs are far better than anything he's done in years, but I still would call that (1) Maroon 5 song more basically funky. Because I'd actually dance to it.

I'm not about to defend M5 though. I hate them otherwise

I mean like I said they have a moment or two on their albums, but the author of the thread said that they were funkier than Prince..and that is blasphemy....I'd dance to this too..but....

though maroon 5 always had catchy tunes, something about them really annoyed me too, and yeah I agree I wanted to punch Adam Levine in the face

but I'm really liking their current work from what I've heard, and just may get the album.

"Woman" from the Spiderman soundtrack is a really awesome track.

However, the lead singer annoys me. I can't explain it. Something about his demeanor. He makes me want to punch him in the face.

He looks like my daughter's father, and he is also an arrogant asshole. He thinks that he's God's gift, it's rather irritating to me.

I'm sure it was meant to be a clever attention grabbing thread title that would get people to enter the thread and listen to the song. It worked because I never would have entered the thread if it weren't for the title and when I heard the song, I was surprisingly very pleased with it.

"Purple and Gold" sounds funky as hell compared to the shit hoppish "Ol Fool Crappery" and "Gaydown".

Hey, if that's what passes for funk in your house...

Aside from Lavaux, I don't even find any of the others remotely interesting. They lack feeling. At least Maroon 5 is still feeling it. Old Prince is much funkier than anything he's done in the past 15 years.

Lawd...we not even going to go with that one...Purple And Gold wasnt THAT BAD as a anthem like tune..but as far as Prince songs in general go...my ipod says I only listened to it 2 times since it came out.

I love the HELL out of "Lavaux". Definately one of the best songs he's done in recent years. I enjoyed most of his latest album much more than his other recent ones....that is except for that damn hideous hidden track that wasn't hidden well enough.

yeah he's a dog, I get that vibe from him

Is it me...or the drums at the beginning remind me a lot of "Head"?
