Atomic Dog - Dogs Of The World Unite Remix

This classic funk song explains why men are always going after women: It's because they have a little a dog in them, and dogs chase cats.

Clinton admitted to being in an "enhanced" state when he recorded this, entering the studio "blind as a bat and out of my head." For most earthly beings, this would result in nothing more than cosmic slop, but Clinton was used to working under these conditions - he created much of his Funkadelic material on acid. He came up with the opening spoken line, "This is a story of a famous dog," and ad-libbed the rest of the lyrics, stumbling on the hook: Why must I feel like that Why must I chase the cat It's nothin' but the dog in me When this section materialized, he knew he had a song.

Clinton worked on this song with his longtime musical director Garry Shider and with the keyboard player David Spradley, both of whom put together the track and share the songwriting credits with Clinton.
