Now, I suspect that in a fairly short time period people are going to be saying "But she is really popular" and she quite possibly is in the UK already. However, as this is currently one of my most favoured songs and it isn't on the radio here, yet (and I will be surprised if it ever turns up), I wish to include it.
My first impression of this song was that it was somewhat odd, but extremely interesting. The title immediately had me thinking of Jungle Book, and the tone of the song took me to Alice's Wonderland. Marina's voice is amazing - she goes all over the scale perfectly in a melody that is not instantly predictable - my kind of music!
I invite you to view the video:
In my opinion, the video's minimalistic appearance let's the song down a wee bit, but the weirdness of the concept certainly fits with the tone. I still can't get the weird fairytale imagery out of my head, and would love to have seen a video that enhanced the thrill-of-the-chase feel of the song.
Still, I look forward to seeing/hearing a lot more from Marina.
