In the year 1985, this song came from the studio album captioned “Living in the Background.” Baltimora was an Italian then popular music project from Milan, active from 1984 to 1987.
When you listen to this masterpiece, you will agree with me that this kind of vibe by Baltimora’s gives you opportunity to dance and forget all your worries.
“Tarzan Boy” was released in the year 1985 and from the very first beat, you can tell it’s a song from the ’80s. It’s a playful song about freedom, adventure and the thrill of living without worries.
The lead singer draws inspiration from the character Tarzan, who lives wild and free in the jungle, swinging on vines and feeling at one with nature.
Lyrics:
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh…
Jungle life, I’m far away from nowhere
On my own like Tarzan Boy
Hide and seek, I play along while rushing ‘cross the forest
Monkey business on a sunny afternoon
Jungle life, I’m living in the open
Native beat that carries on
Burning bright, a fire that blows a signal to the sky
I sit and wonder, does the message get to you?
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh…
Night to night
Gimme the other, gimme the other
Chance tonight
Gimme the other, gimme the other
Night to night
Gimme the other, gimme the other world
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh…
Jungle life, you’re far away from nothing
It’s all right, you won’t miss home
Take a chance, leave everything behind you
Come and join me, won’t be sorry
It’s easy to survive
Jungle life, we’re living in the open
All alone like Tarzan Boy
Hide and seek, we play along while rushing ‘cross the forest
Monkey business on a sunny afternoon
Night to night
Gimme the other, gimme the other
Chance tonight
Oh, yeah
Night to night
Gimme the other, gimme the other
Night to night
You won’t play
Night to night
Gimme the other, gimme the other
Chance tonight
Oh, yeah
Night to night, night to night
Gimme the other, gimme the other world
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh…
……..THE END
