James Brown was one of the coolest people on Earth in his day...not so much in the past fifteen years due to odd behaviour [the mugshot on smokinggun.com for instance]. Why did it have to be on Christmas? What a shitty day to die. He will be missed. - Mon, 25 Dec 2006 8:47pm

I am very curious to know what they will find in his system when the autopsy is performed. Nonetheless, he was an amazing talent, and made some fucking fantastic songs. May he rest in peace and party it up their with Rick James! - Tue, 26 Dec 2006 2:39am

JB

Well chill'n, let us forget
the pistol whipping of the
wife or the high speed truck
run through the hood. Or not.
Let us instead, remember the man,
who left his bandmates hanging,
while he had millions.
He told them that if anyone
took a job with anyone else while he
was in prison, they'd never work again.
Hot an nasty, JB.

Standing in the shadow
of motown and jb's drop down.
They threw a red jacket over the coffin
and sang Please Please Please. Nick Cave,
where are you and, why silent? Don Was, g
et on UP, Kick it up, and get on back DOW
Nagain -- in the pocket, in the casket. James
Brown, He's Dead.

What it is. Amen. JB dead. Cue the funky
unpaid drummer. This one's for free.
Let's us walk to the cemetary, and thumb our
way home. Get on up, and get down, please.
Love and hate. There it is -- James Brown.
I'm black, and I'm proud, I'm white
and holding vinyl and great memories of
JB, never see that again. What's he mean,
to you? My bus rolling by the Apollo.
College kid in the wrong place. JB.
You Son of a bitch. Love.

Love, always love, Live, at the Apollo.

so im working backstage at james brown concert 1986 in ottawa...i get asked by his personal valet to help "Mr. Brown" and his entourage- no prob!!
im asked to bring "Mr. Browns" wardrobe, boots etc. up to his hotel room...next thing you know, i hear a door close behind me and i turn around to see im alone in a dressing room with James Fucking Brown!
i put my hand out to shake hands with greatness and WHAM--he pulls me towards him, wraps his leg behind mine to wrestle me to the ground while trying to RAM his tongue down my throat!! SERIOUSLY!
so i wriggle out from his grasp, make a b-line for the door, all freaked out, and HIS ENTIRE BAND etc LAUGH and insult me as i run down the hall!!
apparently james brown didnt think banging white boys was a problem...
funny i dont associate the amazing, amazing music with the sicko who tried to hump me... - Wed, 10 Jan 2007 11:11pm
