I've been trying to figure out what the hell this woman is babbling about for some time. She's clearly not from an english speaking country and she's trying to sing english lyrics. I've searched all over, but unfortunately, with dnb, most of these tunes aren't famous, so there are no sites (that I can find anyway) sporting the lyrics to this tune. So I lay down the gauntlet to you fellow programmers to try and figure out what the hell she's saying. I've got almost all of it, but I'm stuck on the last line.

Duo Infernale - Concrete Jungle (Snippet)

Just incase you don't want a spoil, here's what I think:


What are your best guesses peeps?

I agree about most of that, except I'm thinking the last line might be:

I'm a maniac on the loose.

Sounds like Daniella Westbrook before the op .

I think a roof is mentioned somewhere - but the rest is indecipherable...

Quote: "I'm a cat on a hot tin roof."

i think that might be "I'm a cat on a hotel roof."

Here my guess. Attached a tweaked ogg. A little easier to make out what she's saying.

I'm a monkey in a concrete jungle - (age) sounds like back vocal
I'm an animal in a rivalry - (age) same thing.
I'm a cat on a hot tin roof. - as the saying goes
I'm a maniac on the move.

Edit: Replaced the ogg with a mp3

Maniac on the move sounds like a possible! And that's confirmed by the Van and the Joh.

I couldn't play that .OGG btw. No .OGG decoder!

Edit: If you type "maniac on the move" into google, you get nothing, but "menace on the move" gets loads of results. I wonder if that's a saying aswell?

I think I heard...
"I'm a monkey with crumpled toes"
"I'm a man in drag on the loose!!!"

yup, i agree with everyone else

one other thing, i normally like DnB, but this tune was really... well... gay. It sounded like someone had tried to fuse funky house with a light DnB loop.

i think i'll carry on holding my colour.

I don't have a sig, live with it.

Try to see what this song is... I altered the .wav myself.

Sledge Hammer's pick-up lines: Your ammo dump or mine? /I feel connected to you... by handcuffs. /Where have you been all my life? Incarcerated? /How about some fine wine and pork chops?
