Flash Light (song)
"Flash Light" is a song by funk band Parliament, released in January 1978 on the album ''Funkentelechy Vs. the Placebo Syndrome''. It was the first #1 R&B hit by any of the P-Funk groups and reached #16 on the Pop charts. The track became Parliament's second certified million selling single, following "Give Up the Funk (Tear the Roof Off the Sucker)".〔(RIAA Gold & Platinum Searchable Database - Parliament Singles ), Retrieved 2009-07-16〕 "Flash Light" also gave Casablanca Records its first number one R&B hit.
The song's distinctive bass line is often attributed to Bootsy Collins and was originally written for him. However, the line was actually performed by Bernie Worrell on three connected Minimoog synthesizers.〔(NY Times - Honoring the Moment When Music Met Moog )〕 Collins still contributed to the track by handling drum duties. Lead vocals were by bandleader George Clinton, while Bootsy's older brother Catfish Collins played rhythm guitar. "Flash Light" continued the "Fake the Funk/Your nose will grow/Sir Nose D'Voidoffunk" concept that began with Bootsy's Rubber Band's "The Pinocchio Theory". The success of "Flash Light" would greatly influence not only Funk music, but also new wave and hip-hop.
In 2004 ''Rolling Stone'' (ranked "Flash Light" #199 ) on its list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. The song is frequently played at United States sporting events.
The song was featured in the ''CSI'' episode "Killer Moves". The song was also featured in a 2014 commercial for ''Grand Theft Auto V''.
