Isn't "Funkytown" by Lipps Inc.?

The answer: Kiss

it's probably "Funkytown" but could also vote for "Cupid/Loved You For A Long Time," "I Wanna Be Your Lover," "Steal Away" or "Do That To Me One More Time."

i think i just voted for air supply

Haha, my grandparents had the very same upholstery!

Anyway, "Upside Down" for me - that groove is unstoppable. In second place: a tie between the world's last-ever disco hit and KISS's first-ever disco hit. (Tied because they're co-dependent - you can't have a KISS without Lipps. *rimshot*)

If it was Working My Way Back to You by the Spinners, that would easily take it. Instead it's Robbie Dupree.

It's a K-Tel record which means you have to vote for a guilty pleasure song. Steal Away, KISS or Benny Mardones for me. The Spinners song sounds better now than it did back then. I wish All Out of Love were here instead. BTW- Vince Gill is singing lead on that Pure Prarie song. I'm going with Steal Away, which always sounded like a long lost Michael McDonald/Doobie Brothers song.

If this is "original artists" as they used to say, then for me it's between Lipps Inc and Prince.

vote for a guilty pleasure song

This has to be Meco, right?

Hmm, I'd have gone Jermaine Jackson, off that list...
