The Lion Sleeps Tonight
Thanks to Ace Ventura in 1994, I was introduced to this song. That’s when my love for oldies grew exponentially. This tune, was originally sung by Robert John. It will always remind me of how the villain in Ace Ventura 2 got shagged by a gorilla in the bushes. LOL.
One of the all-time classic, simple yet catchy. Have a great weekend people. Keep your chin up!
Robert John – Lion Sleeps Tonight







What has it to do with Thunder Cat!!! LOL
Nice song you put.
That reindeer with Santa thingy looks so WRONG. But a series of dry Xmas humor would be great
meekiee Lion?
tihtahpah I know! LOL. I’ll put up some dry Xmas humor if I come across worthy ones…
Cis! I thought while I was sleeping, you had decided to call me a lion. LOL
Jemima Hahahahaha! Well done Sherlock Holmes! It WAS circuitously meant for you…
I first heard it in 1982, by a UK group called Tight Fit (which is also a cool band name…). The MTV video wasn’t bad too. As usual, Tight Fit became a one hit wonder. Their version went to number one in the UK.
Wombat I’ve never heard of their version, the other version I heard was by The Tokens.
