Hey, I'm in love
My fingers keep on clickin' to the beatin' of my heart
Hey, I can't stop my feet
Ebony and ivory and dancin' in the street
Hey, it's 'cause of you
The world is in a crazy, hazy hue

My heart is beatin' like a jungle drum
But a doong ka doong ka doong doong doong doong
My heart is beatin' like a jungle drum
Rroo ka do ka do goong ka do ka roo ka doong doong
My heart is beatin' like a jungle drum

Man, you got me burnin'
I'm the moment between the strikin' and the fire
Hey, read my lips
Cause all they say is kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss
No, it will never stop
My hands are in the air, yes I'm in love

My heart is beatin' like a jungle drum
Rroo ka doong ka doong ka do ka do ka doong doong
My heart is beatin' like a jungle drum
Rroo ka do ka do ko koo ka do ka do ka do ka doong
My heart is beatin' like a jungle drum
Rrrrroong doong do rroong koong koong
My heart is beatin' like a jungle drum

Doong ka doong ka rroo ka do ka doong doong
Do ka do ka do ko kok ka do ka do ka dong doong
Rroom boom boom boom boom boom
Bub boo bub bow ka rrah ka duk ka koong gung
Boom boom boom tick tock boom
But tuk ka tok ka tok ka tuk ka tuk ka dom dou
Rroong ka goong ka kow doung kong kow
Rroong ka goong ka like a ruk ka kung kew

My heart is beatin' like a jungle drum
My heart is beatin' like a jungle drum
My heart is beatin' like a jungle drum
My heart is beatin' like a jungle

Rroong ka doong ka roo ka do ka doong doong

Anyone hear Dance Monkey in this?
(Yes, I know this came before Dance Monkey . . .)

So, are you asking a question? Just exactly what does the punctuation "...?...?...!"mean anyway?

Now THAT'S how you comment on your dislike of a song.  Rather than whine, rant, or pontificate you take action.  I imagine this was submitted after having fast forwarded through a few disagreeable tunes.
 
I solved it by clicking Skip. Lo and behold!  "Rocks Off" by the Stones.

I'm not leaving this party anytime soon ...

"...from Iceland."

Yeah, that makes sense.

The first time I heard this song when it first came out, I thought it was a really cleverly produced and performed song.

I did done overplay it, but if I was a young lad or lassie hearing this for the first time, I'd be hella stoked!

Am surprised, I didn't know she co-wrote Kylie Minigues 'Slow',

Funny song... But "Love In Times Of Science" is her true masterpiece...

If this were a bit worse, it could go for Eurovision contest.
 
Yes, it is cute and sweet, but not what I would listen again.

Icelandic?  I could of sworn that was inspired by the jungles of Jan Mayen.

very nice track, quite different from the tracks of her previous, kinda sad album.
Talented! I just don't get the negative ratings, probably ppl like their peace inside their tiny musical boxes ... {#Tongue}

I *hate* judging singers by their looks, but wow - this woman is stunning.  
 
She did a glorious track with Thievery Corporation on one of the Hotel Costes albums a few years back called 'Heaven's Gonna Burn Your Eyes", and a track for the 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' TV series called 'Summerbreeze' - both quite, quite beautiful.  
 
Great voice (not to mention eyes you could drown in.  ::sigh::  )

But I must say, BillG, I would have loved to hear this song segue into some equally upbeat, slightly obnoxious song. Someone mentioned Bow Wow Wow. Jungle Drum -> Do You Wanna Hold Me?

Probably the most childish music I've heard on RP.  And yes, I'm including Manu Chao.
Posted 15 years ago by xkolibuul    [ Reply ]
This is cute, why all the hate?

Edit: Not that this has bearing on the quality of the music for better or worse, but upon browsing the photo gallery on the artist's site I feel compelled to mention that I would do things to this woman. Unspeakable things, things that would probably get us arrested in most jurisdictions. I won't go into details because children might be reading, but seriously. THINGS, man. {#Devil_pimp}

This is a lot of fun - I like it better than other tracks I've heard by her.

I love Fridays on RP. Where does Bill come up with this stuff? This is weird, but in a good way. However, I wouldn't want to listen to this more than once in a while.

Very cool tune ... you can't go wrong with the Bo Diddley 3-2 clavet, even at Warp 6 like this.

The "drum sounds" she sings remind me very much of Sheila Chandra.  That's where the similarity ends.  I like them both!
 
yes, the song 'Ticka Ticka Ta'.  Sheila Chandra is brilliant.
