wow, interesting song! lots of styles morphed together for this one. quite different for her as well as the "Ali Baba und die 40 Räuber" song on the same vinyl. must of been her experimental phase. cool video, thanks for posting!
If you read France Gall interviews and see the title of many Gall songs (Kilimandscharo, Nefertiti, Babacar) SHE ALLWAYS HAVE A INTEREST IN AFRICAN CONTINENT.
@astralhed i know that you are a big FG fan. Anyway, you and i agree this age strangely FG loss a bit of popularity, but this song (also others like "Kilimanscharo", "Ali Baba", "Merci herr marquis" and the melancholic "Miguel") is a GREAT song.
popularity and talent dont always take the same way. Example: France Gall always sing betther than Madonna, but, who is more famous?

politically incorrect again: "unga katunga"...notably associated with "uga uga" language, which is describing a language style of african tribes.

Gracias Sergius por subirla a YT. Me gusta cuando ella dice: "Komm doch mit" antes de "Ricke dicke dicke dicke..." ♥

Yeah her German songs do seem to push musical boundaries more than the early French ones. This one and Computer 3 especially. Glad ya like it

I wonder what she is singing about?

She's singing about a tropical island called "Unga Katunga" somewhere in the deep blue sea.
France is inviting you to come along.. to show off your dancing skills. Afterward she will kiss you under the vines, to show off HER skills.

I was about to guess that "Unga Katunga" was some African sort of thing.
