THE 1000 BEST SONGS IN THE WORLD EVER.
26-Funkadelic-One Nation Under a Groove.
1978-Number 9 single.
Best Bit-At 7.53. Funkadelic had just finished playing a gig in Washington DC when two young girls approached George Clinton’s car and told him it was the best concert they had ever seen, they said ‘It was like one nation under a groove.’ The girls in question were called LaTanya and Darlene, their names appear in the credits on Funkadelic’s critically acclaimed 1978 Album ‘One Nation Under a Groove.’
George Clinton was born in 1941 in Kannapolis, North Carolina,U.S.,he is a pioneering figure in the genre of Funk Music. He will be best remembered for forming two bands that he would front concurrently, the Funk band Parliament, and the more psychedelic Funk Rock band Funkadelic.
Clinton (see also best songs 612-340 and 143) co-wrote this song along with Garry Shider (1953-2010) and Walter Morrison (1954-2017.) The line ‘So high you can’t get over it, so low you can’t get under it,’ was used by the Temptations in ‘Psychedelic Shack,’ but it actually goes back much earlier to Gospel music.
On the subject of other lyrics in the song Clinton said,’I took a catchphrase used by the chauffeur character in the Charlie Chan movies when he was ready to run from the ghost, ‘Feet don’t fail me now,’ and the line ‘Dance your way out of your constrictions,’ is about people’s hangups,’ Clinton said, ‘You can deal with them by being grumpy, or with a smile.’
‘Do you promise to funk, the whole funk, nothin’ but the funk.’
