(1) Toy-Box (http://www.toy-box.dk.tp) is a Danish pop group formed in the 1990s. It consists of two members, both vocalists: Anila Mirza and Amir El-Falaki. Anila was born October 8, 1974 in Hillerรธd, Denmark to a half-Pakistani, half-Persian mother, and an Indian father. Amir was born August 12, 1973 in Copenhagen, Denmark. In 1999, they had some success in the Scandinavian music charts with a bubblegum pop song from their album Fantastic, named "Tarzan & Jane". Toy-Box's first album, Fantastic, included the hits "The Sailor Song", "Best Friend", "Super-Duper-Man", "Teddy-Bear" and "Tarzan & Jane". It was released in September 1999 and followed in 2001 by a second album, Toyride, which included fan-favorite songs "Www.girl", "Prince of Arabia" and "Wizard of Oz". The group has broken up. Amir is working as a dance teacher, music video choreographer and trainer to F.C. Copenhagen's cheerleading team. Anila changed her name to Aneela and began a solo career.
(2) Toy Box (http://www.myspace.com/toyboxmusic) is a post-grunge alternative metal band from Ontario, Canada, formed in 2004 by Deriek Simon (lead vocals, guitars), Carmine Mallia (drums, percussion), and Duncan McIlroy (bass, vocals). After touring across Canada in 2004โincluding performances at Edgefest, sharing stages with Finger Eleven, Thornley, Idle Sons, Scratching Post, Swollen Members, Rascals, and ClarknovaโToy Box rolled into the Voodoo Records studios, Canadaโs hottest independent label, to create a full length album. Their onstage energy is immediately addictive to anyone who has had the opportunity to catch a live performance. Likewise, this energy and massive sound has been captured in their debut album The Assasination Of... released in the fall of 2007. Beautifully crafted, poetic lyrics, razor sharp guitar riffs, groovy bass lines, beefy drum beats that would make John Bonham proud. This has been contrasted with string and piano arrangements delicately placed throughout to form a dramatic backdrop for vocals so powerful and intense your brain begs for more.
(3) Toybox (http://www.myspace.com/toyboxband) is also a UK glam-rock band, based in Northampton and Brighton, consisting of Alice Acidosis, Cinderella Swallows, Roberta Rim Job, and Nurse KKK.
(4) Toybox (http://www.myspace.com/toybx) is a US rock band based in Tempe, Arizona, consisting of Yohei (Vocals, Bass), Naoto (Guitar, Vocals), and Celica (Drums).

Toy-Box Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We all come together, just to sing we love you
And if we all come together, we know what to do
We all come together just for you
Racing all around the seven seas
Chasing all the girls and making robberies
'Causing panic everywhere they go
Sailing, sailing, jumping off the railing
Drinking, drinking, 'till the ship is sinking
Gambling, stealing, lots of sex-appealing
Come, let us sing the sailor-song
So if we all come together, we know what to do
We all come together, just to sing we love you
And if we all come together, we know what to do
We all come together just for you
Sailorman, you really turn me on
Now the guys are gone, come let us get it on
Girls like me are pretty hard to find
So if you go, I'll kick your Heine
Sailing, sailing, jumping off the railing
Drinking, drinking, 'till the ship is sinking
Gambling, stealing, lots of sex-appealing
Come, let us sing the sailor-song
So if we all come together, we know what to do
We all come together, just to sing we love you
And if we all come together, we know what to do
We all come together just for you
Now, let's fight!
Ha, that's not a knife, this is a knife!
I'm king of the world!
Wow, this was great!
Yeah, baby, you can sail my ship!
The Sailor-Song by Toy-Box glorifies the exciting and carefree lifestyle of sailors, who race around the seven seas, chase girls, and commit robberies. The song projects a sense of unity amongst sailors, emphasizing the importance of coming together and supporting each other. The lyrics "So if we all come together, we know what to do / We all come together, just to sing we love you / And if we all come together, we know what to do / We all come together just for you" are repeated throughout the song, highlighting the significance of unity and support.
The song also contains suggestive lyrics, as one of the girls onboard the ship finds the "sailorman" attractive and is keen to "get it on." Additionally, the song references the infamous maritime disaster of the Titanic and the sailors' wild partying onboard. The lyrics "Party-hardy on Titanic" and "Drinking, drinking, 'till the ship is sinking" paint a picture of reckless behavior and disregard for the consequences of their actions.
Overall, The Sailor-Song portrays a romanticized view of the sailor's life, filled with adventure, excitement, and freedom. However, it also highlights the importance of camaraderie and support amongst sailors.
