shock the monkey - peter gabriel I wanna be like you - is the song the monkey (chimp?) sings to Mowgli in Disney's "Jungle Book." There is a killer swing version of this song on the "Swingers" soundtrack [ Edited by: dangergirl299 on 2004-09-14 15:02 ] |

It might take the fun out of it, but you can go to Allmusic.com and search song titles for "jungle" and "monkey." There are hundreds of results. |

Sung by Louis Prima for the disney film (he did the voice too) and FYI (not to sound like an ass, so please forgive) he's based on an orangutan...which are great apes. It's kinda like calling apples "oranges". But I suppose would work under these pretenses... Hows about "straighten up and fly right", the version I'm thinking of is the Nat King Cole hit.

Monkeys? Gotta be the backup singers in Tony Bennett's "In the Middle of an Island". How's that for obscure? Listen here: http://www.cybertiki.com/mp3/In_the_Middle_of_an_Island-01.mp3 Cheers! [ Edited by: cybertiki on 2004-09-15 11:50 ] |

Love Monkey #9 by Bootsauce from the Album "Bull" Just remembered this one yesterday when hearing Chilli Pepper's "Love Rollercoaster", I was thinking of how much more I liked Bootsauce's version of that song, from the same album. |

Don't They Might be Giants have a dozen or more songs about Dr. Zarius & the Planet of the Apes? On just the album "Severe Tire Damage" there's: "The Planet of the Apes," "Return to the Planet of the Apes," "Conquest of the Planet of the Apes," "Escape from the Planet of the Apes," "Battle for the Planet of the Apes," "Beneath the Planet of the Apes," and "This Ape's for You." |
