I'll have to go with Funk 50 again.
As for Family, I'll just add my 2 cents worth. I tend to agree with Dreamer's interpretation I'll just add that I think he is talking about his "extended family" also. It seems that he spends a lot of time with Barbara & Ringo & their family & is really enjoying that. I forget whether it was last Christmas or the one before that there was a video on YouTube showing Joe & Marjorie at Ringo & Barbara's home where they were spending Christmas with the "extended family". In the video Joe, Ringo & others were jamming. Lucy was there & was participating in the jam session as well.
That's precisely why I'm not a fan of it. It's a remake. After all this time I wanted new, fresh material. If he did it live, that would be OK, but I think it is out of place on what is supposed to be a 'new' album even if it has updated lyrics.
I stayed out of the Family fracas but I'm basically with Dreamer, PM & GL on it.
I know when this cd first came out and I heard Family, I was very disappointed in Joe for singing about his family in this way and felt very sorry for his kids. I'm still shocked that he did it unless there are still hard feelings there. I would like to think that he didn't mean for it to sound the way it does, but there it is in black & white!
But still, I really like this song as a whole and I just try to listen to it without becoming involved in the real meaning.
I think the next song to go should be Funk 50. It seems he's just grabbing at straws in order to come up with another song for the cd so he threw this one together.
I vote for Funk 50.

I vote for Family. Not because the lyrics bother me; they don't. I just don't think it's a particularly interesting song compared with the others remaining.
Okay, Family can go now!
So there is no confusion, I cast my vote for Family.
