Wow Cosmin! Is there any type of music you do not know about?! laugh.gif I had not thought about Bootsy Collins in years! He's part of the whole George Clinton / Parliament entourage isn't he? I remember he did a funny love song on the soundtrack for "Friday" a long time ago. I think it is called "Wide Open". Check it out if you get the chance....it's pretty hilarious! biggrin.gif
