[@stacykrausmann583]

If I opened a disco, this would be the theme song. It has so much funk, one cannot help but move. Even a dead person can move to this song.🗼

[@ogbb2311]

[@elonwiggins294]

Are you aware of how evil that sounds, this song is mixed with sun worship, I warn you because I care.

I watch this and soul train and wonder why did we stop having fun and just stop being cool with each other.

[@3Rayfire]

Amen brother. Tell it like it is.

[@TravelWright22]

crack

[@lilmikedakidd5957]

I don't know

[@streetlight197]

Modernization of our society gave everyone different agendas, thus changing their overall disposition toward others. It's bullshit, yeah, but that's how it is.

[@100Asphixiate]

It stopped when everyone became better than everyone else thanks to social networking, promoting the notion that anyone can be publicly admired like a celebrity. The result .......... widespread egotism.

[@MarkRidlen]

RIP Bernie Worrell, a true legend!

[@ru486]

He did an album with Les Claypool, Buckethead and Brain called "Colonel Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains" that you should check out.

[@DoubleVisionandco]

Absolutely magical bass line.

[@Flaytt744]

when Beethoven..and Mozart heard that Bass..they said DAMN!!..R.I.P. Maestro

[@ke7787]
