Revision as of 18:23, 24 May 2014
Give up the Funk by Parliament is featured in Funk, the twenty-first episode of Season One. It is sung by the New Directions as part of a scrimmage against their rivals, Vocal Adrenaline (who had TP'd their choir room and performed in their auditorium after breaking in with Sue's help) showing them what happens when you let go and enjoy the fun of performing and just getting funky. Solos are sung by Artie, Finn, Kurt, Mercedes, and Tina.
This is also partly revenge for Vocal Adrenaline throwing eggs at Rachel. Jesse also says, "They performed a funk number. We have never been able to pull off a funk number," to which Giselle agrees saying that they were "souless automatons" echoing what was said earlier. Puck smirks after the performance saying, "See you punks at Regionals."
