okay i'm thinkin that concludes are discussion on this.... LOL, tell me you don't *know* all these songs!
you are a crazy man, dgeiser--i gotta love someone that thorough... many thanks!!
i know them all now! but that'e because i downloaded and listened to each and every one of them. i was feeling particularly driven that day but i forgot to star my favorites...
ape man - the kinks, i wanna be like you (the monkey song) - big bad vodoo daddy, king kong five - mano negra, monkey man - the specials, monkey wrench - foo fighters, very ape - nirvana
ape man is a very well known song and most people probably know it when they hear it even if they don't know it by name.
the original "i wanna be like you" is from the soundtrack from The Jungle Book and was originally done by Louis Prima. both versions are good.
king kong five is a great song.
monkey man is a famous ska song and you'd know it if you heard it.
i had never heard of very ape before but i liked it.
and belive it or not this is just a drop in the bucket when it comes to ape/gorilla/monkey songs. there were tons listed in the all music guide that i couldn't find to hear. i'd say about 90% of the stuff on this list is worth a listen.
yes, the folks at artofthemix.org are always coming up with new monkey-related theme mixes. here's the latest--which i noticed yesterday.
