"Get Up, Stand Up" is a song by house music DJ/producer Laurence Nelson, who recorded the track under the project Phunky Phantom. The track features the repeated use of the only lyrics on the song, "Get up, stand up, strut your funky stuff sure enough", which was sampled from a 1979 disco song called "Strut Your Funky Stuff" by the American group Frantique.[1] This was Nelson's only song to make the Hot Dance Club Play chart, reaching number one on October 11, 1997.[2] The same track reached number 27 in the UK Singles Chart in May 1998.[3]
