Favorite Chipmunks song?

[wyldwolf]

Mine has to be their cover of Tom Petty's "Refugee."



Just having fun with all the "favorite" lists on DU!

1. Clapton's "Layla"

God that Alvin is a genius.

2. Hell yeah!

Old-school Chipmunks, I'd have to go with "Alvin's Harmonica" or "Alvin's Orchestra"; though "they" also do a surprisingly pretty cover of "Hushabye Mountain" from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang to tell the truth.

"Alvin for President" is cool just because I would prefer a cartoon chipmunk to the cartoon chimp we have residing in the executive branch now.

From the latter era, something like "Call Me" from Chipmunk Punk has to be up there... haha

3. Love Shack!!!!

I've only heard it once -- I was in Texas on business and was listening to a show on public station KUT that played some bizarre music... and that cut came on.

Is that one on "Chipmunk Punk"???

4. The Witch Doctor

I told the witch doctor
I was in love with you
I told the witch doctor
I was in love with you
And then the witch doctor
He told me what to do

He said that

Ooo eee,ooo ah ah ting tang
Walla walla, bing bang
Ooo eee ooo ah ah ting tang
Walla walla bing bang...
Ooo eee ,ooo ah ah ting tang
Walla walla ,bing bang
Ooo eee ooo ah ah ting tang
Walla walla bing bang

I told the witch doctor
You didn't love me true
I told the witch doctor
You didn't love me nice
And then the witch doctor
He game me this advice

He said that

chorus...repeat x4

You've been keeping love from me
Just like you were a miser
And i'll admit i wasn't very smart
So i went out and found myself
A guy that's so much wiser
And he taught me the way to win your heart.

My friend the witch doctor
He taught me what to say
My friend the witch doctor
He taught me what to do
I know that you'll be mine
When i say this to you

chorus...

You've been keeping love from me
Just like you were a miser
And i'll admit i wasn't very smart
So i went out and found myself
A guy that's so much wiser
And he taught me the way to win your heart.

My friend the witch doctor
He taught me what to say
My friend the witch doctor
He taught me what to do
I know that you'll be mine
When i say this to you
