Funk you in the eye balls...

I need some education,

In your opinion what is the SADDEST FUNK SONG?

or

Can a funk song be sad?


(that's funk as in FUNK, and sad as in melancholy!)

Maybe not the saddest, but sad:

"Have you ever lost a lover" or "Goodnight Eddy" by Bootsy Collins

Come on, try harder! Granted it get's funked up around the middle, but at that point it isn't really sad... MB to me is an emotional movement that starts and finishes on sad notes, but kinda laughs in places and yeah occassionally makes yo face scrunch up like JB.

But anyway, other than MB?

Is it true that funk by definition, CANNOT be sad?

I'm still waiting on some Bootsy download to check out 'Good nite eddie' and 'Have you ever...'
