Yep, you read that right. Band-of-the-moment AlunaGeorge took to Annie Mac (covering Zane Lowe’s) show last night to perform their live cover of….. The Jungle Book’s ‘Monkey Song’.
The song, widely known as ‘I Wan’na Be Like You’ was a surprise turn by the band but lead-singer Aluna Francis still managed to put a unique twist on this Disney classic. I’m a massive fan of the band, but unfortunately this was probably not their greatest public move in all fairness.
Whilst the cover does showcase front-woman Aluna Francis’ sublime vocals, it was, in its entirety, something fairly, ummm, ‘goofy’ if you excuse the Disney-esque pun.
