[71yid]

Oh what a tune. Great to hear again. Massive dance anthem of 1994.

[athanassiosa]

[richmltn]

How can you go wrong with sampling, 90s techno beats and a friggin BANJO?? So good.

[TheBeautyfulwolf]

Funny story though. The boyfriend I had at the time, this tune was out?? At the time he worked as a DJ in Copenhagen DK? He said : "EVERYTIME this tune was up?? People started do Linedancing!" xD

[robcypher]

[vinylated]

I bought this back in the day on tape! It has a crappy green cardboard sleeve. Think in the end I put two strips of cellotape on the corners of it and tape over it lol

[kart00nher0]

Such a great song! Thumbs up if you love the 90's :)

[nightmathzombieethan]

I'm sensing some hostility towards this song.....

[MrDerpbag]

@ToXiKSyK NO I haven't!! :O But I've heard a bit about it, maybe I should keep an eye out!!

[jhangirk]

A tune that never ages, but gets better every time. Why can't tunes be as memorable as this - Long Live the PAST!

[MickeyFKNMouse]

Rock yeah

[BringItBackITV]

One of the best dance records...ever! I always associate this with "Doop" by Doop - don't know why. Btw, thumbs up if your watching this in 2011

[iluvspeedway2]

[fisher082]

Bagpipe song? Maybe "Hevia- Busindre reel"

[AlexFormann]

Anyone remember the title on the bagpipe song from the 90's? Please give me feedback.

[jaygrt1]

@AlexFormann Try Yakoo Boyz -- Pipe Dreamz

[lilillbill]

@AlexFormann The song you looking for is Acid Folks - Perplexer..

[djsyko]

@AlexFormann If not Perplexer - Acid Folk, try Strictly Verbal - Bagpipe Anthem :)

[Scandinavian92]

1993

[Hirnrissiger]

I should start learning the banjo, awsome instrument...

[INSHREDS85]

[euromusicfreak]

[bradmorris67]

Now everyone say "YEEEE-HAAAAA!"

[BrendaJeanSahagian]

[MrHobbit50]

just been on a cruise they played it all the time

[euromusicfreak]

It's 22.32 on Sunday night and i got this blasting out, and the neighbours called the police, when they arrived i invited them in , and we all had a good boogie to this, what a tune 10/10

[m24532]

@euromusicfreak I FUCKING LOVE IT!!!!! I suppose the police can be alright sometimes... haaa, THIS IS MY FAVE TUNE EVA!!! it makes me move my thing x

[aprilamberguitar]

@euromusicfreak  ha ha thats funny

[MrLeinad200]

Cotton eye Joe.. go to the swamp. We got a new Best 90's Song Evur! :-)

[grecco85]

@xooropa hahaha youre right. i ment tom jones :P its not that i dislike but i didnt think you would take it personal and if it was to be a popular song it would not have just 500 k hits . but nice try !!

[JARheadmix]

this is such an epic from the past...its a wonder how nowadays there are so many people who have no taste in music anymore and people like rebecca black get on the charts.

[300minus]

Personally, how I would have filmed this;

- close up on the banjo players fingers during the whole song

- fuck the rest

Grid died because they did NOT do this.

RIP

[BayouBluesMan]

@300minus u know these jackasses stole royalties from the virtuoso banjo player? eventually the poor guy died pennyless, and the whole band...was the banjo man

[euromusicfreak]

@300minus MTV has now died has have most music tv stations these days

[jhangirk]

@euromusicfreak Someone take out Gaga & Bieber once and for ALL!

[fotoma7]

one of my best songs. i'm almost 50 years old

[lukecollyer]

What insanely stupendous people do not like this track!? Its awesome! Perhaps, the beat made them suffer a myotonic spasm & they hit the dislike button by mistake

[Vet242]

О настольгия еще мелкий был

[Vet242]

О настольгия

[tubeit99]

[184tube]

@tedofthedead Exactly.

[djscotty1111]

Good memories to this Thanks for posting this mayenco !!

[gordonjohnd]

I remember chatting to a girl a couple of years ago who is the neice of the chap who made this. He also used to be in Soft Cell. She didnt even know about his dancey type records such as this! What a crime! lol

[PoliteElliot]

Played in Trade NYE a year before it ever made the charts: stamp of approval.

[cloud9savagehenry]

[gumitsirke]

@azadgyi ...and dozens of hungry crocodiles :)

[chenzie48]

I video taped this of MTV back in the day haha!!

[gabbagabbaholic]

Eat your heart out cotton eye joe!!!

[oztubes]

@grecco85 - you're a bit short on the knowledge stakes. Swamp Thing is a 90s track and the Grid (Norris & Ball) were serious underground players in thr UK house / trance scene.

[grecco85]

It has a kind of swing in it but shows Obvious signs in trying do be included in eurodance music wich the whole world listened to around the 90´s. Sorry to say but the songs does not haveanything incommon with the typical eurodancemusic we know and remember. Even carlton dancing to tom hanks is better than this.

[HockeyDarkness22]

they used to play this song at the saddledome at every home calgary flames game in like 1997-1999 lol

[jhonnydrama]

@HockeyDarkness22 i remember that it was awesome!

[bigtank2008]

[BuckyKhronic]

[DeleteTheWeak]

Cheese on toast.

[TheCrawler333]

Good tune, just loop 4 bars of the melody over and over. You'll never get sick of it.

[Nerion52]

[MrDuende7]

This song is legendary - always good to listen to this one. Top top tune

[richardthewriter]

@pruane "it's a banjo" randomly cool thing to say!!!

[dhwanianuwadiya]

Tjis tune inspired me to dance and learn guitar although it is played on mandolin I can play it on guitar .... but very very difficult and tiresome... if you dnt have finger covers ... ur gonna bleed thru fingers... ots a single string tune ....

[dhwanianuwadiya]

[dilau77certeze]

[blast761]

I agree with DjMikko74. Create a site for songs from the 90's and a dance club with music from that era. None of the junk they play these days.
