Steven Greenberg, the creator of the act, wrote and produced, most of the group's music Funky Town, written by musician, composer, and record producer Steven Greenberg and sung by Cynthia Johnson, expresses the singer's pining for a metaphorical place that will "keep me movin', keep me groovin' with some energy".
