The Jackal - Ronny Jordan

[peterdegray]

CJ Cregg is the Jackal

[123archivist]

"I knew i had died and gone to CHOCOLATE heaven..." I've used that one a couple times. :)

[AdamOfTyndall]

i dont think there is anyone in the world with as much swagger as Ronny Jordan

[sheleozj]

this song is legendary & CJ nailed it

[celshader]

I remember this song on JJJ radio when I was at Uni in 1993.

[liloadventure]

@celshader My thoughts exactly, 'cept that I was in yr 11... A real one of a kind this track. Not just some booty tune, but a window into the human condition.

[wash2877]

I loved this on The West Wing with CJ

[personagirl82]

i  love this piece

[zultaurus]

Always loved Ronny Jordan. Produced by Ray Hayden from Opaz Productions. I went to Ray's home to interview him about street music for my final year (sixth) Architectural project in Camden. He's the nicest and down to earth bloke in music. And he gave me some cds too!

[alextirinnanzi]

my God, I' ve listened to The Jackal in 1997, when I moved in London from Rome.. this song has completely changed the way to get into music.. and now I am travelling tourism resorts around Mediterranean sea even djing acid jazz & lounge music, thanks to Ronnie Jordan for that, and to you too for making this video :)

The way Shakespeare is meant to be read.

[hollaboutit]

this song is about me : ) except i don't go to prison :)

[tewhere1]

woohoo!! shit i havent heard this for a few years..an awesome riff..seems like only yesterday..this used to remind me of that chick on the warriors..all you see of her is her juju lips haha!!

[xcbcvb]

Allison Janney actually had to make it more awkward and not as good when she did it as CJ compared to when she does it normally - her original lip sync was too good for the character!

[WentMillerGal15]

I love this song. It's so sensual and sexy. "I knew that I had died and gone to. . . Chocolate Heaven. . ." The best line. Mmmm. So sexy.

[snowyMaru]

First time I heard a version of this was on The West Wing... :)... The CJ Jackal scene is legend :) and sooo damn awesome :)

[TouchedProductions]

@snowyMaru

She can bring it! :)

[alexdoherty1984]

This is one of the funniest things I have have ever heard, I don't know if its meant to be

[GDelva2003]

There's one version which is 7 min long

[carterboy66]

" I knew it wasn't local." I have always loved that line.

[JoshuaSnell3]

@carterboy66

Isn't it "I knew I wasn't loco", meaning I knew I wasn't crazy.

[carterboy66]

@JoshuaSnell3 Please listen to :55- 1:00. Thanks for the Espanole lesson, but I didn't need it.

[TheJoe101]

that is one kickin bass line

[AerodynamicAnime67]

LOVE IT!!!

[suejar]

CJ scene wonderful!

Great to find the original - even better!

Shame Dana Bryant doesn't get more recognition for the vocals. Love her laugh.

Does anyone know - are these Dana's words? If not, who wrote it?

[stuntmanACTION]

Quiet Revolution

[blackcat17944]

You spelled "legally" wrong...

[ValOddling]

This was featured in an episode of The West Wing with Press Sec CJ doing a lip sync of the song and entertaining everyone after a good day.  Funny scene!

[bsq333]

i love the west wing

i agree with u

me and my sis watched it over and over and over again

[1bonesfanforever]

no thats wrong it wasnt a lip synv she actually did it. sorkin caught her doing it and then wrote it into the script.
