I keep vacillating between this and Crush and Haze (and also the cover of Your Life Over Mine) as my favorite, and seeing all their different styles and how amazing they all are and I can't help but be amazed that the world is blessed with such a talented person.
Now I'm the king of the swingers Oh, the jungle VIP I've reached the top and had to stop And that's what's botherin' me I wanna be a man, mancub And stroll right into town And be just like those other men I'm tired of monkeyin' around! Oh, oobee doo I wanna be like you I wanna walk like you Talk like you, too You'll see it's true An ape like me Can learn to be human too Now don't try to kid me, mancub I made a deal with you What I desire was man's red fire To make my dreams come true Now give me the secret, mancub Come on, clue me what to do Give me the power of man's red flower So I can be like you Oh, oobee doo I wanna be like you I wanna walk like you Talk like you, too You'll see it's true An ape like me Can learn to be human too Yeah you! I wanna be like you I wanna walk like you Talk like you, too You'll see it's true An ape like me Can learn to be Human too Oh, oobee doo I wanna be like you I wanna walk like you Talk like you, too You'll see it's true An ape like me Can learn to be human too
i dont know why, but everything from this video feels perfect, every scene, every change in the music.... its perfect. Just play it a thousand times and be happy!
I mean...Great fun version of the song. But Tessa's screen presence for EVERYTHING is just so good. An incredibly expressive, lovely, and animated visage. Why are you not a thing? Is it a weird gypsy curse?
Strangely, this has become my absolute all-time favorite song. It's totally different from anything I normally like, but between your amazing singing and how expressive you are in the video, I've become absolutely addicted to this. You're my new favorite artist Tessa.
There is SO MUCH amazingness going on here. The jungle VIP section is just F'ing badass. And when you guys pop up at the end of Rusty's awesome trumpet solo...hilarious. The Sidwell of it all. Your voice, as always, matched with all the personality you inject into everything.Finally, best arrangement of this song ever. Only version I've ever liked. And I LOVE this version.
Really good cover. A lot of people have covered this song over the years, but this is maybe the most happiest most joyful cover I have heard beside the original arrangement.
As a kid I loved this song. We would play the vinyl LP over and over. LPs where 33rpm but it got even better on 45rpm, on the 75rpm setting it was hysterical.
I don't usually comment, but now I feel I have to. Tessa, this is perfect. Your interpretation of this song just melts my heart (especially low inflections). That's all, thank you. Greetings from Poland 💕
Oh my gosh this is SO FUN!! I can really see your playful spirit shine through in this and that's what I've always loved the most about you, Tessa. :-) Great job!!!
This is beautiful. Looks normal, relaxed and generally just very nice. Her videos are down to earth which I like. Also the uke at the beginning made me smile a little, loved it.
is that like vinyl static/crackle mixed in there!! or has something happened to my tweeters or amp. Oh boy. BTW it's GRRRRREAT!! (sorry that' wasTony the Tiger, from the same era coincidentally
This is so amazing. This Song makes me so happy but i didn't even know why. But now i finish this secret and omg its from "The Jungle Book" its amazing. Hearing it every time on my bike by a beautiful ride!
Tessa, You vibrant creature. you are the most cutest, I love your soft voice and i loved the work that went into making this video. thank you for making it, i REALLY LOVE THIS SONG. you just made it that much better. thank you so much for creating. don't ever change
Her songs can be played in cozy cafes in the cold winter, sitting in a knitted sweater drinking chocolate latte and eating fresh hot cooked oatmeal cookies))
I discovered this by coincidence on iTunes but the video makes it twelve times better, I love the onesie ❤️ Also your spin on this song is absolutely mesmerizing and I’ve listened to it like ten times now :D
Now I'm the king of the swingers, oh The jungle VIP I've reached the top and had to stop And that's what botherin' me I wanna be a man, mancub And stroll right into town And be just like the other men I'm tired of monkeyin' around! Oh, oobee doo I wanna be like you I wanna walk like you, talk like you, too You'll see it's true someone like me Can learn to be like someone like you Now don't try to kid me, mancub I'll make a deal with you What I desire is man's red fire To make my dream come true Now, give me the secret, mancub Come on, clue me what to do Give me the power of man's red flower So I can be like you Oh, oobee doo I wanna be like you I wanna walk like you, talk like you, too You'll see it's true someone like me Can learn to be like someone like you Now you might think it's ridiculous That me, a gigantipithicus Would ever dream I'd like to team With the likes of you, mancub But together, we'd have powers All the jungle's treasures, ours I got desire, you got the fire But the dream I dream takes two So, ooh, I wanna be like you I wanna use that flame just the same you can do Oh, how magnificus it would be A gigantipithicus like me Could learn to do like you humans do Can learn to be like someone like you Can learn to be like someone like me

What I desire was man's red fire
To make my dreams come true
Now give me the secret, mancub
Come on, clue me what to do
Give me the power of man's red flower
So I can be like you
Oh, oobee doo
I wanna be like you
I wanna walk like you
Talk like you, too
You'll see it's true
An ape like me
Can learn to be human too
Yeah you!

Rusty playing the trumpet is my new favorite thing

Да, тоже нравился Маугли, мульт детства, а в исполнении Императрицы еще лучше заходит эта божественная музыка.
Tô curtindo muito a vibe das músicas da Tessa Violet
I'm watching this for the 5th time, TESSA!!! The cover, the montage, the color correction, the moves, everythiiiiiing
Thank you!
@@tessaviolet Heavily influenced by Mowgli and Rudyard Kipling?
Okay this was adorable! Absolutely loved this! Really liking your video's lately, all the talky one's a music ones!
I love the vibe you bring, it's so unique and cool!
That smile! And such lovey composition and light.
This is my favorite Disney song and your cover really helped me through some hard times. Thank you
That's my favorite song and video on UA-cam. I can't stop watching it.
Quickly becoming one of my favorite songs.
Look up the original aswell :)

I love this song, heard loads of covers - this is the best!
I've had this stuck in my head for the past week
Rusty KILLED IT with that trumpet solo!!!
YESSS! Watching this on repeat and getting hype for Disney
I don't usually comment, but now I feel I have to. Tessa, this is perfect. Your interpretation of this song just melts my heart (especially low inflections). That's all, thank you.
Greetings from Poland 💕
Thank you, Julka
I love your voice. One of my favorites. I could even see you singing jazz music. ❤️
Oh my gosh this is SO FUN!! I can really see your playful spirit shine through in this and that's what I've always loved the most about you, Tessa. :-) Great job!!!

I got this put on our shop playlist where I work at a rock (like crystalz n shit) and art shop in bangor maine. I'm OBSESSED WITH IT.
Rusty and Jake on the couch had me dying.
Hi Tessa. I listen to your so many songs... Never stop making music.
Love from India.
Waiting for your upcoming songs.
This is so amazing. This Song makes me so happy but i didn't even know why. But now i finish this secret and omg its from "The Jungle Book" its amazing. Hearing it every time on my bike by a beautiful ride!

From 5 years in the future, she definitely has changed
Made almost two years ago. Still one of my favorite videos Tessa has ever posted.

Lol that guy sure loves to shimmy! Love this cover :)
UNEXPECTED JAKE SIDWELL
SURPRISE RUSTY TRUMPETER

+Gumdrop & Auntie AND ALL FOR THE LOW LOW PRICE OF FRIENDSHIP.
Hahaha. Thanks, Jake!
Was already one of my favorite songs! This is so so good!
This has been stuck in my head for weeks. What have you done to me, Tessa!?!?
P.S. thank you for whatever you did to me.
I had the craziest most busy of days and this song just made my day :) Thank you
Tesssaaaa this is the most phenomenal video. I'm gonna put this on loop whenever I'm having a bad day. Jake and Rusty are hilarious too. :)
Simply my favorite song in this mounth, i literally hear it every day, im in love with your voice, wanting for more songs!
I dig this, man. I dig this so hard.
To this day I listen to this, a whole vibe
The groove of this song, mixed with the cuteness of your voice, is an incredibly endearing combo. :O
Ive watched this a thousand times and it gets better every time
The first time I saw this video I had this song stuck in my head all day 😂😂😂
I love all the depth that was put into this cover! I can't stop watching it!!
my favorite thing about this is how vaguely terrifying it is
I showed this to my mom and she said "I like it but they seem so soulless"
considering the lyrics it's like they want to be like tessa-monkey and they lose their soul?
or am I overthinking it
@@ploopybear its from the jungle book. the monkeys kidnapped the man-cub, threatening him to tell them what the humans did to create fire.
Can't stop listening this, Soooo goooooood, Production, acting, voice, Love it!!
Why am I only seeing this on the 31st of December 2019?
Cause it's too cute for 2020
I am seeing it too,😀
Desember 2020 :v
This has become one of my favourite videos to watch and tracks to listen to - I've come back to this video so often lately! Great job, Tessa :)
Tessa, this is why you are one of my favorite humans.

Здрасте госпожа.

Omg I love your outfit Tessa 😍😍😍
This is so catchy! Now it's stuck in my head =).

I laughed a little too much at the red butt on the monkey suit, confirming I am for sure 11 years old. hahaha
Great video y'all!

Now I'm the king of the swingers, oh
The jungle VIP
I've reached the top and had to stop
And that's what botherin' me
I wanna be a man, mancub
And stroll right into town
And be just like the other men
I'm tired of monkeyin' around!
Oh, oobee doo
I wanna be like you
I wanna walk like you, talk like you, too
You'll see it's true someone like me
Can learn to be like someone like you
Now don't try to kid me, mancub
I'll make a deal with you
What I desire is man's red fire
To make my dream come true
Now, give me the secret, mancub
Come on, clue me what to do
Give me the power of man's red flower
So I can be like you
Oh, oobee doo

I wanna walk like you, talk like you, too
You'll see it's true someone like me
Can learn to be like someone like you
Now you might think it's ridiculous
That me, a gigantipithicus
Would ever dream I'd like to team
With the likes of you, mancub
But together, we'd have powers
All the jungle's treasures, ours
I got desire, you got the fire
But the dream I dream takes two
So, ooh, I wanna be like you
I wanna use that flame just the same you can do
Oh, how magnificus it would be
A gigantipithicus like me
Could learn to do like you humans do
Can learn to be like someone like you
Can learn to be like someone like me
You should go on top man
AJAAJAJ
