"Tribal Dance" is a song recorded by Dutch Eurodance band 2 Unlimited.[1]

Release and reception

Tribal Dance was released in April 1993 as the second single from the group's second album, No Limits!. The UK release once again omitted the main rap, but left in more vocals from Ray than any of their previous releases.

The release scored chart success in many European countries topping the charts in Spain and Finland. The song also topped the Canadian dance chart while peaking at #7 on the US dance charts.

Content

The track featured a trumpet riff and different kinds of drums throughout the song and the accompanying video was set in the jungle using blue screen in order to create the appearance of members of the band swinging across a jungle backdrop. A picture-in-picture screen showing a video game was also used.

The "Say that again" lyric at the start of the track was sampled from the film Back to the Future.

Appearances

The song is also featured in the 2006 film Final Destination. It was also used in the music video games Dance Dance Revolution 5thMix and Just Dance 4.
