King kong

Watashitachi to issyo ni
Parapara wo oboemasyoh

Dakishimete king kong do it right
Kono machi wa jungle all night long
Kimidake wo sagashiteta
Konokoi wo zettai tsukamoh

Tatta hitorino king kong hold me tight
Hajimete no love chance dakara
Furimuite onegaiyo
Imasuguni ding dong my king kong

Let's go out
Yozora wo meguru anoryuhseh
Kokoro ni ochitano kimino she
Machidewa daremoga koe kakeai
Galasu ni utsuru lonely eye
Koi no risoh wa bijo to yajuh
Hanaretetatte itsumo muchuh
Tobidashitai hontohsa
Dokodatte tsuiteiku

Dakishimete king kong do it now
Mayoisoh jungle all night long
Nanimokamo kaetaiyo
Futarinara zettai kanau

Kitto watashi no king kong only you
Itsudatte jitto shitenaide
Omoikitte saratteyo
Kokorokara ding dong my king kong

Dokoikitai nanigashitai
Shiranai umimo mitemitai
Hayasugirutte iwaretemo
Heart wa kyuhniwa tomaranai
Rakuen motto betsuno basho
Deguchi kitto mitsukemasho
Koetemitai hontohsa
Sokokara sakiwa sohtoh iih

Dakishimete king kong do it right
Kono machi wa jungle all night long
Kimidake wo sagashiteta
Konokoi wo zettai tsukamoh

Tatta hitorino king kong hold me tight
Hajimete no love chance dakara
Furimuite onegaiyo
Imasuguni ding dong my king kong

Kimidake wo sagashiteta
Futarinara zettai kanau

Dakishimete king kong do it now
Mayoisoh jungle all night long
Nanimokamo kaetaiyo
Futarinara zettai kanau

Kitto watashi no king kong only you
Itsudatte jitto shitenaide




Omoikitte saratteyo
Kokorokara ding dong my king kong

Schade das es Shanadoo nicht mehr gibt. Das war eine der besten Girlsband, die ich je gehört habe. Die waren nicht nur bildhübsch, sondern auch volle witzig. Und vor allem hatten sie super Songs. Habe mich jedesmal irre gefreut, wenn die einen Auftritt hatten.

@soerenlange2911

Es ist ende 2020, und ich feier diesen Song immer noch und ist bei mir bei jeder Party 🎉 vorhanden 😁😁😁

@x.laura_5578

Jetzt ist es sogar schon 2022

@susanneroeske6104

Die sind einfach echt mega

@BeniKeke58

Mittlerweile 2022 😅 das war einfach K-Pop von vor 12jahren.

@IIICynnIII

Manche hits bleiben für immer

@user-jd5ry5yh4m

2023 und endlich habe ich sie wieder gefunden diese Nostalgie Bombe 🎉🎉❤

@rhiannonledger2234

My dad took me backpacking across Europe for my sixteenth birthday, and this song was number one almost everywhere we went. It holds such amazing memories for me!

@skurinski

Well it does fit the europop/eurodance style that Europe loves. Check out Banaroo, Ch!pz, BeFour, ATC, Ann Lee, Kim Lukas, Eiffel 65, Vengaboys, Aqua, Daze, Infernal, etc

@mr.know-it-all1603

This song only charted in two countries (germany and austria) and didn't even crack the top 10. :(
