The song this week "Give Up The Funk (Tear The Roof Off The Sucker)" by Parliament
The lyrics in this song seem to serve no purpose other than getting listeners in the mood to dance. The lyrics do a great job of getting you to groove right along with the beat. Even though the lyrics are the same throughout the song, saying, "We want the funk, give off the funk, we need the funk, we gotta have the funk." The lyrics do a great job of carrying the beat and getting the listeners to tune in with the beat. I would have to say that the beginning of the song is my favorite part. It begins very subtly with the lyrics and then builds to more of an upbeat tune. It reminds me of the song "Band On The Run," by Paul McCartney and Wings. Both have the build, the climax, and the resolution. "Band on the Run" is a bit more dramatic than "Give Up The Funk" but the way they build up gets the listener sucked in. The build and the climax of "Give Up The Funk" just flow together so seamlessly. This song is built for the dance floor.
I would agree that the beginning of the song is a good part. I think that makes it important because like you said, it gets everyone in the mood to dance. I think it is cool that the main idea of this song is to create the vibes for dancing.
