Release: March 9, 2009

Lyrics:

Hey I'm in love

My fingers keep on clicking

To the beating of my heart

Hey I can't stop my feet

Ebony and Ivory and dancing

In the street

Hey it's cause of you

The world is in a crazy hazy hue

My heart is beating like a jungle drum

My heart is beating like a jungle drum

My heart is beating like a jungle drum

Man you got me burnin'

I'm the moment between

The striking and the fire

Hey read my lips

'Cause all they say is

Kiss kiss kiss kiss kiss

No it won't ever stop

My hands are in the air

Yes I'm in love

And so onburuburobummbummbumm

My heart is beating like a jungle drum

My heart is beating like a jungle drum

My heart is beating like a jungle drum

My heart is beating like a jungle drum

SongFacts:

“Jungle Drum” is the third single from Icelandic singer-songwriter Emilíana Torrini’s third album, “Me and Armini”. It was released as a digital download on March 9, 2009 and later as a CD single in Germany on June 19, 2009.

Critics received the song very positively; Popmatters reviewer Spencer Tricker called "Jungle Drum" the album's "catchiest song" (alongside "Big Jumps"), "as good as the Fisherman's Woman singles". He also praised the song for having "an irresistible chorus with some completely unexpected interludes." Matthew Allard of ARTISTdirect stated that the song "was intended to be an iPhone advertisement". Clickmusic reviewer Francis Jolley called the song "a lively, fun little gem reminiscent of Nancy Sinatra in her heyday" and "infectious Scandinavian pop." Both Popmatters and Clickmusic reviews praised the song's rhythm section, calling it impossible "not to tap your foot along."

In 2009 she was also seen in the TV show “Germany's Next Top Model”. As a result, the song gained great popularity in German-speaking countries. It was scheduled to appear in the dance video game Just Dance 3, but did not appear for unknown reasons.

In 2010, the track was used as the theme song in a video created for the Icelandic government's official campaign "Inspired by Iceland" to attract tourists to Iceland.

Björk's work influenced many musicians as we have seen in our posts – what about her country Well, if you ask me, Iceland became a hub for many intriguing strands of music thanks to her with Emilíana Torrini being a fine example of that. She reminds me us of Björk, though I'm sure the latter wouldn't have done something as goofy as the tune on the link. Moreover, Mrs. Torrini does share her ethos, but she does move that one towards the sound that could be described as a pop with a weird view. Sure, we could describe Björk like that, though she looks beyond the boundaries of that. Mind you, this shouldn't suggest a negative view on Mrs. Torrini – she's a delightful singer –, this is yet another case of Bjork influencing the others with her attitude and not her sound.
