I propose that funk/funk rock be added into the "Rock" section, but listed as such, as the two are similar, but not the same. For those of you who didn't get it, the title is a Stevie Wonder reference. _________________ Everything here is so cold Everything here is so dark I remember it as from a dream In the corner of this time.........
