'Uptown Funk' is a song by British record producer Mark Ronson featuring American singer and songwriter Bruno Mars, from Ronson's fourth studio album, Uptown Special (2015). The song was released as the album's lead single on 10 November 2014 via digital download in several countries. 'Uptown Funk' was written by Ronson, Mars, Philip Lawrence and Jeff Bhasker. Since the track interpolates 'All Gold Everything' (2012), songwriting credits were added for a total of six. Produced by Ronson, Mars, and Bhasker, its composition began during a freestyle studio session between the former three by deciding to work on the jam that Mars and his band would play on tour. The song went through several incarnations, worked on for months during stressful sessions, recorded at multiple locations, and at one point it was nearly scrapped. Copyright controversies arose after the song's release, with multiple lawsuits and amendments to its songwriting credits, due to similarities with 'Oops Up Side Your Head' (1979) by The Gap Band, keyboardist Rudolph Taylor, and producer Lonnie Simmons.

'Uptown Funk' is a Funk-pop, soul, boogie, disco-pop and Minneapolis sound track. It has a spirit akin to the 1980s-era funk music as well as the works by Morris Day & The Time, ultimate being a 'joyous, energetic and feel-good' song. Its lyrics address fashion, self-love and 'traditional masculine bravado', performed in a sing-rapping style filled with metaphors, arrogance, charisma, and fun. Upon its release, the single received generally favourable reviews from music critics, who praised the instrumental, style and influences of the track. Others criticized it for not being innovative as it tried to emulate the 80's funk music. Commercially, the song topped the charts of 19 countries and reached the top 10 of 15 others, making it both Ronson's and Mars' most successful single to date. In the United States, 'Uptown Funk' topped the Billboard Hot 100 and tied the second longest-reigning number one on the Billboard Hot 100 with 14 weeks and spent seven weeks on the top of the UK Singles Chart. It was certified 11 times platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and four times platinum by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI). As it topped the Billboard Hot 100 and the Official UK Singles charts for at least seven weeks each, it became one of the only four songs to do.

'Uptown Funk' peaked at number one on the Canadian Hot 100 for fifteen consecutive weeks, becoming the second longest-running number-one single in Canada, only behind The Black Eyed Peas' 'I Gotta Feeling' (2009), which spent sixteen weeks at number one. It was certified diamond by Music Canada (MC). It topped the Irish Singles Chart, taking the Christmas number one spot, becoming the first song not released by The X Factor winner to reach this position in nine years.

Background[edit]

After producing three songs for Bruno Mars' second studio album Unorthodox Jukebox (2012), Mark Ronson, told, in June 2014, that he and Mars planned on working together again: 'He's had a [sic] incredible run and it was great to be able to work on that record with him and hopefully we'll be making music for a while.'^[1][2] On 9 October 2014, Mike Mullaney (Music Director/Assistant Program Director at CBS Radio/WBMX), listened to the song, which was sent to CBS Radio for testing, and called it 'the greatest song of all time'. He added, 'The Ronson/Bruno tune is like JamesBrown/RickJames/TheTime jamming w/ badass brass band', describing it as 'Filthy, funky' and complemented Mars' vocals, 'Bruno simply wails'.^[3]

Ronson worked on the song for seven months, recording it in various locations, in a number of grueling, stressful sessions.^[4][5] In its earliest conception, 'Uptown Funk' was just a jam that Bruno Mars and his band would play on tour.^[5][6] When Ronson joined Mars and Jeff Bhasker for a jam session at Mars' studio, Ronson wanted to work and finish leftover demos from Unorthodox Jukebox (2012), however, Mars wanted to do something different and started to play on a drum kit in the studio, while Bhasker and Ronson played the keyboard and guitar, respectively. They decided to work on the jam of the tour and thought it would be 'cool' to fit in the Trinidad James song, 'Don’t believe me, just watch. Don’t believe me, just watch', that was played during Mars' tour soundcheck. At this point, they found the opening line 'This hit, that ice cold/Michelle Pfeiffer, that white gold', which led them to believe they had an 'exciting idea'. However, both Ronson and Mars had busy schedules so they couldn't complete the single then and there. Instead, they spent the next several months working on the song.^[4][5][6] During this time, Mars and Ronson fought over which sections of the track would fit better, with the former not enjoying early versions of the song for a long time.^[7]

Ronson, Bhasker, and Mars recorded parts in Los Angeles, London, Memphis, New York, Toronto, and Vancouver.^[4][6][8] The horn parts were recorded at Daptone Records in Brooklyn with the horn sections of The Dap-Kings, Antibalas and The Hooligans making the final rendering of the track.^[5][6][8] The drum section was first recorded at Mars' studio, in Los Angeles and later rearranged in Memphis. The track took them over 100 takes, being finished at Ronson's studio in London.^[9] Bouncing around different places caused a number of drastic changes in the track.^[5] One iteration featured a hard rock breakdown in the middle and a chorus in which Mars shouted, 'Burn this motherfucker down!' At one point, the song was nearly scrapped entirely.^[10] They spend months working on a chorus, only to come up with the idea of not having one.^[10] After a show at the Moonshine Jungle Tour (2013-14), songwriter Philip Lawrence suggested the use of an opening bassline, however, he couldn't play the bass so engineer Charles Moniz told him to sing it, the 'doh' vocal bassline ended up on the album. Some of the most progressive phases of the track were done on 'makeshift studios' set up by Moniz in dressing rooms.^[11]

The stress over 'Uptown Funk' was so high, that Ronson passed out during one session as Bhasker was to leave London at the end of the day, and he wanted to nail the guitar part before he left. They tried to slow the track down so Ronson 'could find the pocket and play along' but it didn't work, and he thought of getting someone 'good to do it', instead of himself. Nevertheless, the computer burst and they had to switch to tape, which left no margin of error for the latter. Having not figured it out by lunch, they went out for a break and Ronson fainted in the restaurant, vomiting three times. Afterward, Bhasker carried Ronson back to the studio, and together, two days later in Toronto, they figured out the guitar part, when Ronson was playing it in front of The Hooligans after 82 takes. Mars completed his 'part a couple of days later'.^[4][6][9] Ronson confessed on NPR's Fresh Air why he was so determined to make the song perfect 'when you're doing something that doesn't sound like anything else on the radio at the time, you almost need to like, iron-clad it, to make sure it gets through. You have to put these hooks in it. You've got to make sure you've got all that ear candy in it to get it through the gate.'^[4] The record label was hesitant on releasing the song under its current title, suggesting the alternative name 'Just Watch'.^[12]

Production and release[edit]

'Uptown Funk' was initially written by Mark Ronson, Bruno Mars, Philip Lawrence, and Jeff Bhasker. Since the song embodies portions of 'All Gold Everything' (2012), Nicholas Williams and Devon Gallaspy were also credited as songwriters.^[8] As of May 2015, the track was re-registered as it also contains portions of 'Oops Upside Your Head' (1979), with additional writing credits for Charlie Wilson, Robert Wilson, Ronnie Wilson, Rudy Taylor, and Lonnie Simmons.^[13] The single was produced by Ronson, Bhasker, and Mars. Ronson was in charge of the guitars, linn drum and programming, while the keyboards and talk box were handled by Bhasker.

Several music critics including, Jamieson Cox of Time, Chris Molanphy of Slate and Stuart Berman of Pitchfork found 'Uptown Funk' to be heavily influenced by the 80's funk.^[38][41][42] Neil McCormick writing for The Telegraph called it an 'evocation of the kind of Eighties funk that was already ripe with nostalgia'.^[40] Robbie Daw of Idolator found the single closer to the '70's groove', filling 'the hearts of Stax- and James Brown music fans'.^[43] Likewise, Rap-Up dubbed it a '70's jam', a mash-up of 'the best of Morris Day & The Time, James Brown, and The Jackson 5'.^[35]AXS's Lucas Villa compared the funk sound of the recording to George Clinton's 'Atomic Dog' (1982).^[44] Andy Kellman's AllMusic said the recording 'aimed for early Time', but it sounded more like One Way's 'Let's Talk'(1985).^[45] Annie Galvin of Slant Magazine found Mars 'channeling Little Richard's raspier inflections.'^[46] People commented to hear the influence of Cameo on the horns, Morris Day & The Time on the keyboards, and 'Party Train' (1983) by The Gap Band on the drums.^[36] All the verses are designed with a 'call-and-response structure', a signature of Morris Day & The Time.^[47] The song is performed in a more arrogant and charismatic way than Mars' previous tracks.^[42][48] The lyrics have 'well-placed references to Michelle Pfeiffer and Trinidad James', as the hook samples portions of James' 'All Gold Everything' (2012).^[36][48] On the song, Mars shows not only 'soul and swagger' in the sing-rapping verses, 'I'm too hot / Call the police and the fireman', but he also jokes around, 'Got Chucks on / With Saint Laurent / Gotta catch myself / So pretty'.^[38][44][49] The lyrics make fun of the 'traditional masculine bravado' using 'silly metaphors', 'I’m too hot, hot damn / Make a dragon wanna retire man'.^[46]

Reception[edit]

'Uptown Funk' received positive reviews from most music critics. Nick Murray of Rolling Stone gave the song a rating of 4 out of 5 stars, praising the 'George Kranz scatting and Nile Rodgers guitar riff.' He also wrote that Mars, Ronson and The Hooligans 'channel the days when brags weren't humble and disco wasn't retro.'^[50]Spin's Brennan Carley noticed the resemblance between Mars' and Nelly's vocals on the track due to the sing-rapping style, praising the voice as it 'keeps things light and bubbly'.

James found it to be a standout on the album.^[37] John Parker from Drowned in Sound called the recording 'inescapable, a bona fide modern day mega hit'.^[52] Neil McCormick from The Telegraph affirmed he enjoyed the track, but that was because he 'liked all the records it was built out of, by James Brown, Earth Wind & Fire and The Gap Band'.^[40]Stereogum's Tom Breihan completed the song saying, 'It’s the best American #1 we’ve had in more than a year, easily, and maybe much more'. However, Breihan noticed it copied the work of Morris Day & The Time. He concluded by affirming the recording 'takes these old sounds, but it presents them with energy and inventiveness and charm and balls'.^[39] Robbie Daw of Idolator called the single 'a straight-up ass-kicker' and not a 'half-hearted stab' on recreating the '70's groove'. He also praised the lyrics of the song, exemplifying with 'Michelle Pfeiffer, that white gold' and 'gotta kiss myself, so pretty'.^[43]

Jim Farber from the New York Daily News said the recording 'isn’t even a song', he furthered 'It’s a vamp, a rush of 'hit me' rhythms of the style patented by James Brown'. Farber added, that Mars' vocals have 'zip', but they 'lack soul, not to mention an ounce of individuality'. He concluded calling 'Uptown Funk' the only 'lazy track' on the album.^[53] Nick Messitte writing for Forbes criticised 'Uptown Funk' for 'borrowing' from Morris Day & The Time's 'Jungle Love' (1984), having the 'same beat, instrumentation, call-and-response structure' and the key being 'half-step apart'.

The magazine's writers described it as a 'perfect Eighties funk-pop nostalgia bomb', further praising the singer 'sparkling showmanship', dubbing it as 'one of a kind'.^[30]The Village Voice's annual year-end Pazz & Jop critics' poll selected it as the 23rd best song of 2014, tying with Meghan Trainor's 'All About That Bass'.
