Looking for birth music recommendations

While I’m sniff­ling in bed, I may as well make myself useful… I was going to tidy the house and clean the bath­room but I’m not really up to it.

Right now, my sense is that I want music for labour that makes me want to move my hips. I want to get down and *groove*, baby. My cur­rent selec­tion is about 3.5 hours long which is just not long enough… Cur­rently, the favour­ite is “Papa was a Rolling Stone” by the Tempta­tions. That low bass, the syn­co­pated beat… the words aren’t all that appro­pri­ate, but whatever. I’ve also got Nina Simone’s “Feel­ing Good” and a bit of Gil Scott Heron. Bob Marley. Anyone got a George Clin­ton and Par­lia­ment Funkadelic favour­ite? It’s not all ancient soul & funk: I’ve also got Cat Empire’s “The Crowd” and Ozo­mat­li’s “Magno­lia Soul”. Oh and dreamy trance stuff like “Rap­ture (Soulside Mix)” by Lio.

What do you like that would fit with this feel? I’m look­ing for spe­cific song suggestions…
