Chakachas - "Jungle Fever"

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   It sure got a lot of airplay in Boston, particularly on 

WRKO.  I just went thru my old surveys and it spent 6 weeks 

on their top 30, peaking at #2 (#2 in as many ways as you 

want to take it).

I agree, it was a terrible "song".

I don't think we played it where I worked at the time.

	I don't think the song is terrible, but I wouldn't play it with my elementary-aged kids around. (I don't want them asking questions!) As a side note, the person who did the score for Napoleon Dynamite "borrowed" the opening drums for one of the songs in the movie. It's not a direct sample, but you can clearly tell the intention was to copy the beat from "Jungle Fever."
