  • Always loved this song by Manu Chao so we thought we'd do a cover.

    Mama was queen of the mambo
    Papa was king of the Congo
    Deep down in a jungle
    I started banging my first bongo
    Every monkey like to be
    In my place instead of me
    I'm the king of Bongo
    Baby I'm the king of Bongo Bong
    I went to the big town
    Where there is a lot of sound
    From the jungle to big city
    Looking for a bigger crown
    But I play my Boogie
    For the people of big city
    But they don't go crazy
    When I'm banging all my boogie
    I'm the
    King of the Bongo
    King of the Bongo bong
    Hear me when I come, baby
    King of the Bongo
    King of the Bongo Bong
    Hear me when I come

    They say that I'm a clown
    Making too much dirty sound
    They say there is no place
    For little monkey in this town
    So I play my Boogie
    For the people of big city
    But they don't go crazy
    When I'm banging all my boogie
    I'm the
    King of the Bongo
    King of the Bongo bong
    Hear me when I come, baby
    King of the Bongo
    King of the Bongo Bong
    Hear me when I come

    Banging on my Boogie
    All that swing belongs to me
    I'm so happy there's nobody
    In my place instead of me
    I'm a king without a crown
    Hanging loose in a big town
    'Cause I'm the king of Bongo
    Baby I'm the king of Bongo Bong
    King of the Bongo

      If you look up Ren and his own music you can see he has a lot of experience with recording his music “live” while performing his songs. Music production can be insanely expensive - but if you’re smart and talented enough, you can do great things like this cover song.

    Ren, it may be a few years old but this is one of my favorites covers of yours…(y’all’s)…This and any of Nina Simone’s stuff you’ve done busking. Of course all of your other stuff is amazing as well, but this one just catches the light in a perfect particular way and shines like hell.
    P.S. Oh and please come to the USA. I promise it’s not really as bad as the news makes it out to be…at least in most places it’s not! (But even if it were, that’s all the more reason to come-to have the opportunity to enjoy your talent first hand would be so surreal and amazingly uplifting…Lives would be changed forever, without a doubt). Think on it!! (As if you’ll ever really read this, lol. Don’t worry folks, I’m not delusional…just putting the energy out there ‘cause hey! You never know what could happen)😊

    -Bongo Bong Lyrics -Manu Chao
    Mama was queen of the mambo
    Papa was king of the Congo
    Deep down in the jungle
    I start bangin' my first bongo
    Every monkey'd like to be
    In my place instead of me
    Cause I'm the king of bongo, baby
    I'm the king of bongo bong
    I went to the big town
    Where there is a lot of sound
    From the jungle to the city
    Looking for a bigger crown
    So I play my boogie
    For the people of big city
    But they don't go crazy
    When I'm bangin' in my boogie
    I'm the (king of the bongo, king of the bongo bong)
    Hear me when I come baby
    (King of the bongo, king of the bongo bong)
    Nobody'd like to be in my place instead of me
    Cause nobody go crazy when I'm bangin' on my boogie
    I'm a king without a crown hanging loose in a big town
    But I'm the king of bongo baby I'm the king of bongo bong
    (King of the bongo, king of the bongo bong)
    Hear me when I come, baby,
    (king of the bongo, king of the bongo bong)
    They say that I'm a clown
    Making too much dirty sound
    They say there is no place for little monkey in this town
    Nobody'd like to be in my place instead of me
    Cause nobody go crazy when I'm bangin' on my boogie
    I'm the (king of the bongo, king of the bongo bong)
    Hear me when I come, baby
    (King of the bongo, king of the bongo bong)
    Hear me when I come
    Bangin' on my bongo all that swing belongs to me
    I'm so happy there's nobody in my place instead of me
    I'm a king without a crown hanging loose in a big town
    I'm the king of bongo baby I'm the king of bongo bong
    (King of the bongo, king of the bongo bong)
    Hear me when I come, baby
    (king of the bongo, king of the bongo bong)
