Funplex (song)

Funplex is a song by the American new wave band The B-52s, released in 2008 as the lead single from their album of the same name, Funplex. The song marked a return to a more rock-oriented sound for the band, contrasting with the more pop-focused direction of their previous album, Good Stuff.

The lyrics of "Funplex" are characteristically quirky and nonsensical, referencing a "funplex" which can be interpreted as a place of amusement or a state of mind. The song's driving beat and energetic performance contributed to its status as a comeback track for The B-52s after a long hiatus from recording new material. The single received positive reviews and helped to reintroduce the band to a new generation of listeners while satisfying their established fanbase. It features the signature vocal interplay between Kate Pierson, Fred Schneider, and Cindy Wilson, a hallmark of The B-52s' sound.
