Funky Town

From Lipps, Inc. Won't you take me?

Thanks again to Hannah Brown, Kelly Oden, Sam Dorrance, Donny Bradley and Brandon Douthitt for making this absurd idea possible.

Audio recorded entirely on an Audio Technica AT2050 microphone, edited in ProTools.
Video shot on a Canon Rebel T3i and edited in Sony Vegas.

I've never been more impressed with Josh's falsetto...

[Ryan-dikw]

When I first watched it I couldnt tell if I liked this because its funny or because I actually liked the cover but now I'm stoned and now I can tell you this is the greatest song I've ever heard

[peter_draws]

This was awesome. I just had a stupid grin on my face the whole time.

[charliehutchinson]

People that are criticizing this for being "corny" or "cheesy" are taking this video wayyyy too seriously. Just enjoy the silliness!

[donnaldostrom]

The dancing girls was the icing on the cake for this hilariously artistic video. Nicely done.

[joeytwintail]

Awesome stuff. If this fails to bring at least a smile to your face you're dead inside.

[johndecarlo]

I just love how you put the fun back into music

[johnk]

I was already a Josh fan, but this put me over the top.

[odderanswer]

Impossible to watch without grinning and jigging in time.

[SeanKelly]

The precisely correct amount of tongue-in-cheek combined with slick editing and performances skills by all. Nicely done! 

[Zsolto]

This was incredibly funny and incredibly professional at the same time. I was grinning like a Chesire cat and could not believe my ears. Your vocal range is just from another planet -- and this is another new side of you for me. 
Josh, I am really beginning to run out of praise, but don't let that deter you from amazing me as often as you can.

What a tremendous sense of joyful playfulness all within impeccable musicianship. Wow! What fun! This guy is the real deal.

first 12 seconds, guitar Josh looks as if he's giving in to some guitar playing ghost that's posessing him

[iluvguildguitars]

Not my style of music since, I had to grow up with disco as a rocker in the 70's but, I absolutely LOVE this. Very creative and a joy to watch. Nice job, Josh. Now, let's hear some Earth, Wind, and Fire. :0)

[tonyleeglenn]

Funky for sure. Love the rubber stringed uke bass. Nice piece of work, and the girls do a great job dancing too.

[Pamissssss]

This is literally the best thing I have seen in a very long time! :D

[rjful]

That high voice of yours is unbelievably pure.  Good job.

[rayplaysguitar]

I'm at a loss for words...because I can't stop laughing! This is so good..everything! Been following you for a few years since I stumbled upon "Sultans of Swing" and was impressed enough to check out your channel. You've grown so much musically and it keeps on going...love it!

Something quite nice just happened to me. Today for the first time I heard complete "funkytown" here on youtube. I loved it too much, and wanting to see this song live, I added it at the end to the search engine "live" and it turns out that I came across this video. I have followed Josh for many years, and I have never seen this video before until now. ✌🇨🇱

[MarcBrewer]

Great job. If it doesn't go viral, the internet must be broken
