I voted for I Got the Feelin' Because of the part where he goes into the "Baby baby baby..." and his voice kinda cuts in and out. Probably because he had crazy feet.

I know there's several I left off. I think 10 is the limit to the options.

I'm a sucker for "Try Me", "Please, Please, Please" and "This is a Man's Man's Man's World".

Both of those are slower songs though. Pick up the pace a bit and I like "Cold Sweat".

I voted for "Hot Pants"...not cuz I think it's the best, but because it makes me laugh the hardest. That's gotta account for something.

"Give It Up or Turn It Loose" or "Ain't It Funky Now"

but "Funky President" always does it for me in a pinch.

Yep.

And "The Payback", a song my boy Rich Heise used to have a full dance routine to that he would unleash at like 200+ person parties. A fucking white riot for sure.

I voted for "Say It Loud" though because I am.

I voted for 'I Got You (I Feel Good)' just cos I was singing it in the shower this morning.

That I was soaping up my bollocks at the time is merely conjecture.
