Sounds like the most badass grandfather

40 years and this song is still epic.
For sure!!!!

#1 Atomic Dog always
I would've been about 4 or 5 when this came out. It wasn't played on commercial radio over here in England, so it's not a childhood memory (but so much crap pop is, lol!)
Luckily, GC was getting sampled *extensively* when I was a young 90's hip hop head and it made me find out the original tracks - like this one!
Ice Cube and Dr Dre (and a load of others, of course) jacked *so many* of his riddims!
This must've blown the spot at clubs when it first came out!
Luckily, I saw him around '96 in England at a festival (The Essential Weekender). He (and his line up at that time) smashed it. He was crazy as ever on stage!
A true pioneer and original. And a genius. That term gets thrown around too lightly, but he was. So influential!
59 year old still listening May 2,2024 this song gets your body going ❤❤❤❤
61 years old May 3 2024
Why must I chase the cat?
Who's still movin' & groovin' to this beat, 2024? 😎🕺🏻🎶
I didn't have black parents, nor am I black, but growing up in Canada in the 70's, I was the ONLY white kid in my family, let alone neighbourhood/town, who would sit for hours waiting for Soul Train to come on the television!! While everyone was listening to Led Zeppelin, Blood Sweat & Tears, David Bowie, Pink Floyd and our Canadian guru, Neil Young, I was mesmerized by Soul train - the dancing, the music and talent. I tried so damn hard to imitate the dancers - while my parents and sisters' looked at me like 'what is she doing'? When George Clinton came out with Atomic Dog, I was blown away and thought it the funkiest tune ever. To this day, every time I hear that song, every bone in my body is jiving to that tune.
you got soul 👊
U probably have a distant black ancestor your parents don't even know about
That Soul in ya!! To bad you didn't marry A homie.
@@GrxndDxD true!
Right on, soul sista
These old "Classic" songs should be digital remastered. This time and that era will never be seen again. This music was fuel for the soul period.
40th anniversary and it's still a jam!
For sure. Awesome song.
Always will be.
my dad was a dj back in the day and when he plays at our family parties this is still always a must play. So easy to picture him dancing to it, fantastic song. Its his ringtone to this day hahaha
One of the best. Used to rock to this whenever we went to the club.
2022 and this song just refuses to die!! 🐶🐶🐕🐕
Here!!!
This is also good because it reminds me of really nice times
Still bumpin!!!
Who in there right mind wants it to die?!!?!!!?😅🤣😂 #ATOMICDOG4EVAEVA
That's cause this a classic... Only certain people get it!
Heavy crack/cocaine use era George Clinton led to some of the most innovative music in American history. Shit like this seriously makes me so proud to be an American. We have the best culture. George is alive and kicking and he was the oldest member of the original P-Funk guys. It blows my mind. Dude was born in the 1941 and is still touring being awesome and making music with everyone who will work with him. A true American hero. He invented an entire movement that doesn’t get the recognition it deserves. Parliament/funkadelic was the greatest American band of all time with the greatest collection of instrumentalists. Just a force of nature
He deserves all the recognition for ingenuity. This is the movement we all care about and can enjoy together! 💗😊🥰

Well put comment @joshb8976. I remember reading a Rolling Stone article about George Clinton back in the 2010s. *One of the things that he said in that article that has stuck with me was that he was around so many people in his lifetime who did no drugs, who did way less drugs, or just lived much healthier than than he did and they're dead.* There are just some people whose bodies, immune systems, and etc. that have a higher tolerance for drugs than others. Some people's bodies aren't made to take a lot of drugs and then 𝒔𝒕𝒊𝒍𝒍 be living into their 80s like Clinton (he's 82 now).
He still got that Dog in him
Had the best culture *
Who here in 2024
Watching almost got away with it, on AHC Some sean Sally dude responsible for the canarey deli masacre in brooklyn he was a groupie or somthin for George Clinton, I immediately said Atomic Dog! george clinton? And came here, too bad he had to affiliate George Clinton with that horrific senseless robbery RIP to the three victims
Sorry Great Song didn’t mean to Dis The great George Clintion, thats just how i got here i listened to this song way back
2026 bro🎉
@@toryransome48Fr
Yeah
This song was actually made in mistake. George thought they were recording with out him. So he jumped in the booth and the sound engineer had started rewinding the track and George couldn’t tell what key it was in, so he just started to play it off like he knew what was happening and started talking and singing.
I heard that drums were played back-wards for an effect.
It was a totally happy accident. Who says drugs haven’t had positive effects on culture and music?
I’m here cuz of Tales From the Tourbus too ;)
He was so off his face Gary shider and another musician had to hold him up while he sang
Crack induced paranoid breakdown for george in this one
When this got played at house parties back in the day, you knew shit was about to get serious!
so true man
This song never gets old, as fresh as it was when it first came out in the 80's
I was obsessed with this video as a child and now marvel as an adult at the genius of the video concept. This song and the video are one of the most creative of the early to mid 80s!
Oh ok
I still am amazed at the technology and graphics they had then to add the animated characters...but back then I had pac man and Donkey Kong too
This old school song will never go away
*Real OG Music!!!!* *Bring it back!!* *All praise George Clinton!!!*
Thanks bro
There needs to be a resurrection of the G Funk era it's like the one genre that can really get you to get ya groove on
this p funk homie. g funk is dr. dre, snoop, warren g and and the west coast crip type of rap
Listen to Bruno Mars Uptown Funk. You'll see he tried it. that's where he ripped it from. G-Funk-P-Funk
+Lee McLaur
+Lee McLaurin funk was born in Midwest love you. funk songs keep lt up
yes! most definitely
Without George Clinton 90's rap wouldn't have had the ability to break out. This song alone was there to give it the ability to break out.
I know what you meant but to clarify for ignorant people 90s G Funk
Haven't heard this song in many many years and it's still awesome today..it can't be topped
HAPPY 78TH BIRTHDAY GEORGE CLINTON (JULY 22, 2019)
Happy 79th birthday GC July 22 2020
long live george clinton, in our hearts
My deceased sister used to love this song and dance to it. This song just came to my mind and it reminded me of my sister. I miss her so much rip trinita Lynn Agnew . I like this song.
R.I.P❤️
1967 to 1999 rip 😭😭
I’m sorry you lost your sister ❤️
REST IN POWER TRINITA
R.I.P man that is deep 😭
I love george Clinton music
They got it going on
I'm in my 70s and I still their music.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊music genius
Shit always got real when this played at the roller rink back in the day.
OMG YESS
This song was playing backwards and George just freestyle over it and they left it. Genius.
No actually he was tweaking out from smoking crack and came into the recording studio and was paranoid that everyone was recording without him. So he went into the booth high as hell and they started to rewind the tape but george had no idea what was going on. like the track was all backwards and Skipping so to show them he knew what was going on he just started talking and that's how this song came about.
@@markthompson118 Thats still in essence what he said
@@sleezye6152 this mf just went in a big circle to get to the same point lol
A tribute to Chester, Blue, Leo, Brutus, Calvin, Charlie and Prissie and all the other good doggies I have known over my 70 years
A Real Pioneer, in The Pursuit of True Essence of Funk!
I'm glad I got to meet and work with George. Great guy and a very talented producer/musician. He will forever be the Father of Funkadelic Music, up to and after he departs this small ship known as Earth.
It's amazing how good music never dies. This song is still one of the best.
There's no doubt those of us in our 50's were around for the best.. late 60's 70's 80's and early 90's was the best music of all time.. From Motown to Classic rock. The Temptation to Led Zeppelin..
*****
I think of Cruella.
you got that right do the DOG
3zzzz
You speaking about it like it needs to end. If something is a good theory it stands the test of time.
James Avant yes I envy yall
I loved the song since I was a kid and I still love it today there should be more singers coming up with good songs like this but I know that is hard today with people only wanting to listen to the music that is popular now but I will still love it the song is awesome and it "ROCKS"!!!!
These days you don't even have to sing 🤦🏼♀️
Rocks just like what he smoked right before he made this I’m not lying he was cracked out
He’s like the grand master of Funk, I could dance to his music all day.
This song and this video was so ahead of its time. I remember seeing this video as kid and watching in amazement because i'd never seen anything like this before.
without a doubt one of the baddest cuts of all time.
Congrats to George Clinton on becoming an honorary member of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Incorporated. So happy for him!
Jasmin Very happy for him! And LONG overdue!
@@paigeboyd Omg, you have never lied! LOL.. I am also super happy for DL and Anthony Anderson.
@@paigeboyd I'm a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. and I've been to the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc Conclave in the past. Hope to stop by another one in the near future. lol
My son loved him some George Clinton, he passed away n Sept of 2019, miss him everyday❤️
Sorry for your loss
Sorry for your loss, he had remarkable taste and listened to the best music ever.
Sending prayers
this is the jam, that bassline is just cold.
This is so funky!!! Even hearing this as a kid it was dope. The kids AND adults would dance to it.
I remember first hearing this in the 102 Dalmatians film
Heck yeah! 😊🥰😊
This song set the stage for future groove. It can’t be surpassed.
40 years ago. I miss everything of the 80s. 😢
Me too 😢
Still remember my first time hearing this song at a cousin’s wedding in 2002 when I was 13. This song had everyone on the floor even my grandparents who were in their 70’s at that time!
I remember the DJ used to play this at the skating ring. Man, those were fun times.
Remember roller skating too this best song ever
What skating rink?
Roller boogie!
This was my growing up music, we were mesmerized by George Clinton and the music of the Fundadelic. The 70s and 80s was the best in music r&b, soul, rock, it down matter. People made music they loved, not music that just made money. Ojays, Stylistics, I could go on; these artists told stories, they didn't ramble up about Gucc?$%$$$.
This song is still so insane. 🔥🤯
When the dog struts across the screen i fuckin lost it haha
Scruffy P haha
I met George Clinton and his beautiful wife, he is hands down the most gracious down to earth person, I was his waitress several times, Hes awesome. come back to riverside café, I miss y'all
but I miss his crazy colored hair
And yet people hate them!?!? Why? They're awesome people!
Be careful dude, watch your back
It’s incredible that this song was made by mistake !! CLASSIC ! It was being being rewind and he just jump into the booth and start FREESTYLING 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯💯💪🏾💪🏾
It’s 15 year old white boy. But I love so many Black artists that have been so important in music. I mean, come on, Bob Marley, George Clinton, 2Pac, John Coltrane, B.B. King, Ice Cube so many many others. Love them so much
Peace ☮️ ✌️ ❤️💛💚
Such a sick jam .... it never gets old always sounds so fresh!!!! The Funk is forever 🔥🔥🔥
Nobody:
Every "live action" dog movie in the 2000s: BOW WOW YIPPIE YO YIPPIE YAY
🤣🤣 and 9 times out of 10 it was usually a kids' movie

Summer 1983 George Vanier HS , Don Mills and Finch in North York . Outdoor block party, Sunshine Sound Crew , first time I heard this song , crowd went crazy. This is one of the all time great funk tunes. Brings back great memories. Kudos Mr.Clinton !!
Hearing the back story on the creation of this timeless classic makes it - that much more special. That sound of the track dragging is actually a mistake made by George being so high on drugs - that he started singing over a rewinding tape. He kept going with the lyrics and Walla‼️ Atomic Dog was born. Fax‼️
were can i find the story????

George Clinton once said, "I don't wear deodorant because I like to stay funky."
Patent that comment
funny enough deod does hace radiation
Boom shakalaka boom boom
eww
Now these celebrities who don't like to shower and stuff are like "That dude spittin"
This was my dad's song ! would fully rock this song at a party these very days , I'm an 99 baby and would always play this music :)
Aka the song that was mandatory in advertising movies starring a dog in the 90s and early 2000s
Couple things.
I was born in 1987.
I learned of who George Clinton was through a deep love of Space Ghost Coast to Coast, when it was on Television.
I wouldn't have never known of this amazing music without the fine people behind William Street and Adult Swim respectively.
True legend with great music and also a hell of a *interview* with space ghost if you've never seen it. It's worth a watch.
Saw George Clinton, Funkadelic/Parliament in concert in Knoxville, TN about 5 yrs ago. Brought back many memories from high school. My white friends thought I was crazy when I played this, my black friends already knew I was crazy. George said he was 72 yrs old and hasn't been high for 2 yrs. Gotta clean up eventually!
Clean me drug free or just not counting weed?
THE KING OF FUNK
Marcus Reeves facts I was not even born but I remember my family playing this and me just bopping
👐👐
Yes sir!!!
The originator the father of funk. Thank you LSD for such great music and crack also.
Hell ya he is
Thanks for the weekend energy. Love the pretty smile. 👍
I definitely remember this song back in day. This was most definitely my one and only jam. No matter how old that I am 2 this very day I still this song and the video. 2022 who still listen to old school music? This was one coolest video and the song itself!!!
When I first heard this song, I loved it right then and there. Now it is one of my favorite song of all time. George Clinton is the GOAT!!!
2019 and this song is still funkier than a pot of chitlins.
😂😂😂😂😂
Yeah kakakak
Yes Lawd!!!🔥
2020 and it STILL is and I'm an old guy LOL
2021 and it’s still more funkier
😂🤣😂🤣💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽
I've loved this song since I first heard it, years ago on a field trip to the observatory in Chicago. Brilliant laser show choreographed to this song. It changed my whole musical life.
I grew up in Brooklyn East Flatbush '68-76 never felt UNITED with all my peoples as I did there and then
LETS GO! MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS

BOW WOW WOW YIPPY YO YIPPY YAY

In 1982, I was the token white guy at a radio station called WDAO. Unofficially, it meant "White Days Are Over". But no one but our dj "Dizzy" took that seriously. We were all about the breakout of R&B in the mainstream of music, most noticeably, the introduction of disco in middle America. The station thought it'd be awesome if I, a very thin white guy with a long pony tail, would announce the most awesome group of the genre at the concert at Hara Arena. So, after the Sun City Devils performed their warm up, I walked onstage in bib overalls and a thermal long sleeved t-shirt wearing my old work boots to announce George Clinton. You could have heard a cricket fart in the back of the arena. It took only six seconds for my intro to make the 4,000 fans in the arena to realize I wasn't just some uptight black guy they heard every night from 10 to 6. They realized that some skinny Caucasian guy really knew what R&B really meant at the time and that music of the time went across cultures. George and his crew treated me like everyone else, and I learned that we had a lot more in common than skin color. We shared a love of music. The next 3 days were a blur, George had included me in his entourage. As a young man with a chip on my shoulder, I was humbled by the experience. At my age, I often laugh at the images in my scrapbook. But I can still feel the connection that one thin, white rock and roller shared with an R&B legend.
+oldsarge101 I liked your long story and found it interesting. I am a true music lover and thought I'd share that in my life, R&B always had a place. I grew up listening to AFRTS radio, went to a DoD school from 8th grade up and came from two parents who loved music and gave me my love for it. I think meeting George Clinton would have be wonderful but not the path I have walked. My music taste varies from all types, my music collection is huge. I love to pull up videos for some of the songs I that I enjoy, depending on my mood. If you are open to something different with an interesting references to so many icons, I would suggest Rage Against the Machine's "Renegades of Funk." If you want some of what I loved as a high school student, I love Sly and the Family Stone's "Stand" or "If You Want Me to Stay" or Joan Jett's cover of their "Everyday People" as well as their own. I also love Cream's cover of Robert Johnson's "Crossroads." I also love many others, my taste varies to all types as I previously said.
+oldsarge101 Cool.
+oldsarge101 awesome story
im half brown...my mom is a white lady...people trip all the time..on myit beautiful skin tone..& my beautiful funkyness...its all right. ; really good too. let love loght yhe way to a special highway.
+oldsarge101 thank you for sharing that.
This is one of the few P-Funk songs that they play during EVERY show and it's always a blast!!! I've danced on stage with George during this song!! Too funky! WOOF
This song brings back sooooo many memories. Back then men were really DOGS!!!
I am 60 now but I still remember this good funky songs, love them still.
I love transformers too 👍
My dad loved this song so much. We use to dance around w him when we were kids to this song. Awesome memories. R.I.P. daddy
This my jam. I'm 36 and still rocking this. This came out before my time and I'm still here for it
Remember when this 1st came out and you still love it 40: year's later?
Happy 78th Birthday, on July 22, 2019, to the Funkmaster himself, George Clinton!!! This Song, "Atomic Dog," has one of the BEST beats that I have ever heard!!!!😎 This Song, makes you want to Dance, even if you are not in the mood!!! I remember, when this Song came out, and I LOVE it just as much TODAY, as I did when it came out!!!😍 If it were released today, it would go to #1 on the Charts!!! I keep listening to it, over and over Again!!! AWESOME Song......long live ATOMIC DOG!!!!!🤗🐶🐕
No one has an atomic dog dance like my auntie Sadie!!! Rest is power, I know you are still doing your dance! ❤️❤️❤️🌹
Shout out to the 💜 Omega Psi Phi “Ques” 💛of The University of Alabama 1987-1994! Bow Wow!!
Awesome jam in the day...probably more powerful now...we dont get this intensity in funk jams no more ...at least not like this..this is 5 star stuff ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I’m 14 and I think this is better then today’s music
We all knew He meant chasing the tang, but back then there was thought, subtlety and class and didn't have be vulgar to get Your point across. Good times, good times.
I love this song as much as anybody, but I don't know that I would call it subtle.
Coming from a white boy. The lady and I used to rock to this all the time at the club when we went out to have a good time. One of my favorite songs to dance to ever. Set the tone for the night. Didn't have to chase that cat far. Just a white boy that likes to rock 🪨.
I was so happy to see him in concert I took my mother in law to go see him in portland oregon she cried with joy to the funk
Snoop Dogg be snatching this song inside out
one the best 80's song ever
Joey Ledford the only 80’s song ever
Can't forget rockit from the man Herbie Hancock.
Gotta come back every now and again to the music I grew up with. Just can’t replicate this level of funk, still makes my face scrunch up with that beat lmao
2022 and it still hits just as hard
This was totally radical back in the day...shit still got funk...
wish i grew up back then i was born in 92
There is NOTHING even close to this song right now. While you look, I will be enjoying dancing Yeah, this is a story of a famous dog. Bow-wow-wow-yippie-yo-yippie-yeah.
Happy 80th Birthday George Edward Clinton!(Born July 22, 1941)😃🥳🎂🎉🎊🎈🎁🍾🥂👍🏿👏🏿🙌🏿
My kids said “Dog” I had to search deep in mind to remember what the name of this song was & glad I did. ❤
Takes me way back! I love it!
It's officially a party when this comes on for sure
Jody Wharton this or candy by cameo and gap band outstanding
Hi George! I absolutely love Atomic Dog! I've been listening to the song since it came out in the 1980s!
Listening from San Diego, California the home of the hard knocks only the strong survive.
Cant wait to see him for the first time in Toronto!!
He's awesome good for you.
+Robert Still despite growing up in a house mainly with awesome classic rock and metal. early funk and hip hop I listen to with my dad a lot. it definitely is Better than most modern hip hop, at least to me and my friends
Brings back memories
I CANT BELIEVE HE’S 81 YEARS OLD
One of my favorite songs Gorge Clinton' alright now!
2020 on Coronavirus lock down im still loving this song
