Superstitious and Higher Ground by Stevie Wonder (hell, even the Chili Peppers funk the hell out of Higher Ground)
Don't Stop by Michael Jackson (teetering on the edge of not being funky enough, I know)
Tell Me Something Good by Rufus
You Dropped a Bomb on Me - The Gap Band
Anything off the Chocolate City album by Parliament
War by Edwin Starr

That's a sample of my "Funk Must-Haves"
If you can't laugh at yourself, I'll be happy to do it for you.

I tried a search, but didn't turn up what I was looking for... What band did the "Won't you take me to Funkytown" that was all over VH1 years ago? Nice catchy beat with a wail near the end.

Funkytown

The original was by a band called Lipps, Inc. and that was the early 80's, I think.

It was remade by Pseudo Echo (an Aussie band) in the late 80's and sounds like a totally different song. That is probably the version you're thinking of. It has more of an early techno vibe to it with a heavier beat.

If I'm not mistaken, it was remade for that super cheesy movie where the kid wins the surfing competition in the wave pool in Iowa or someplace so he goes to Oahu and learns to surf the big waves on North Shore in a week or two.

Baaaaaaaadddd Pidgen in that movie is what I really remember.
