A Song a day: 17th Apr 2014 (慾望野獸街 – Anita Mui/ジャングル Jungle

Thursday, April 17, 2014

The song for today is “慾望野獸街” by Anita Mui. This song was produced in the early 90’s, it is the Cantonese cover version of a Japanese song call “ジャングル Jungle” by 田原俊彥. The direct English translation of the title is “Desire Wild Beast Street”.

The lyrics are rather simple. It said night turn bad again, and the skinny waist wanted to dance. Her desire tells her to be bad and she doesn’t want to be nice anymore. Loneliness is getting bigger, it shake when the wind blow. Fully of prey on her street, and she is making her way through the wild beast street. Her eyes are like guns, when they blink, they kill. Whoever look at her eyes would die without knowing how. Desire Jungle, jungle, jungle. Desire Jungle, jungle, jungle. Desire Jungle, jungle, jungle. Desire Jungle, jungle, jungle. Suicide. A Lonely lion is waiting for her to say hi. The big noise elephant want her to swing its nose. Desire is in auction, going through the wild beast street. Whoever bump into her, even if they were straight arrows, will turn bad. Hope you will like the song. I have also linked to the original Japanese version for comparison.
