Baltimora - Tarzan Boy

This song came on the radio as I was driving home this evening, and brought back a memory of the most significant day of my life. Besides today, the last time I heard this song was in the afternoon of May 11, 1987. How can I be so precise? That was the day my childhood dream, to become an Airline Pilot came true. I had just completed my final interview with Continental Airlines and was offered the job. As I got in my car and started driving home I turned on radio and this song had just begun playing, and I was singing it loudly. That was the beginning of my 34 year career with Continental/United, which ended last year, when I turned 65, the FAA's mandatory retirement age.

Jungle life I'm far away from nowhere On my own like Tarzan Boy Hide and seek I play along while rushing cross the forest Monkey business on a sunny afternoon Jungle life I'm living in the open Native beat that carries on Burning bright A fire the blows the signal to the sky I sit and wonder does the message get to you Night to night Gimme the other, gimme the other chance tonight Gimme the other, gimme the other Night to night Gimme the other, gimme the other world Jungle life You're far away from nothing It's all right You won't miss home Take a chance Leave everything behind you Come and join me Won't be sorry It's easy to survive Jungle life We're living in the open All alone like Tarzans Boy Hide and seek We play along while rushing cross the forest Monkey business on a sunny afternoon Night to night Gimme the other, gimme the other Chance tonight Oh Yeah Night to night Gimme the other, gimme the other Night to night You won't play Night to night Gimme the other, gimme the other Chance tonight Oh Yeah Night to night Night to night Gimme the other, gimme the other :)

Somebody 2024 ?

Vocal - 100% Melody - 100% Genius - 100% Poetry - 100% Legend - 100%

This was my dad’s last song. He loved music, he loved singing and dancing. The day before he died was a surprising “good day”, he wasn’t in pain or tired, he was laughing and telling jokes like he used to… and was singing this song by heart with my brother. It’s hard listening to it but this is probably now the most important song in the world to me now. Miss you, dad.

1980 PEOPLE: The future is going to be great. 2020 PEOPLE: Let's go back to the 80's.

My dad past during Covid. He would always sing the hook to this song. I had a dream today, searching for him but couldn’t find him. In this dream. When I woke up this song kept playing in my head.I haven’t heard it in decades! I knew it was a message from him. Thank you dad, love you. 🥲

Alguien de 2024? Que siga escuchando esta joyita

Cuantos latinos😉 escuchado este hermoso clásico🤟

It’s crazy how a song can immediately take you back to a life that is long gone. 80's music just hits differently. I honestly think it was the best decade of music. 😍

Que temazooo, prefiero mil veces estás músicas que las de ahora

80's music just hits different. I honestly think it was the best decade of music.

The Tarzan yell in this song is an underrated act of genius

Llevo años buscando está canción al fin la encuentro 😭

The 80's was a different era of Music 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Probably one of the most cheerful and upbeat songs ever written and produced, never fails to cheer me up....

Alguém em 2024 ouvindo este sucesso da Dance Music? 👏🇧🇷✌️

Yep, I loved this song in 85 when I was in college and almost 40 years later, STILL here listening to it!!!!!

por aca 2024 ? Una Joya esta canción

¡Hola a todos! Se preguntarán quien soy y porque tengo un canal con casi 200.000 suscriptores sin ser nadie. En 2005 nació la plataforma de YouTube y yo tenía un archivo de video con la canción de Tarzan Boy de Baltimora. Entonces todo el mundo podía subir cualquier tipo de video y decidí probar con ese. Desconozco el motivo por el que YouTube me deja tener ese video en mi canal, pero tampoco me genera ningún ingreso económico ni generarlo con ningún otro video de mi propiedad. Resumiendo, gracias a ese video tengo muchos seguidores, pero no puedo monetizar mi canal. Posteriormente, subía videos que hacía con mis amigos por pura diversión, pero no tenían apenas visitas. Tampoco importaban. Con el tiempo, mi canal iba creciendo poco a poco, pero no era gracias a mis videos, naturalmente. Gracias a ese video musical que no me pertenece he conseguido tener tantísimos seguidores, pero no me siguen a mí, sino a esa exitosa canción que ahora se ha vuelto aún más popular gracias al 2º capítulo de la cuarta temporada de Stranger Things. Me hace especial ilusión tener tantos seguidores, pero sé que no es a mí a quien admiran. Por eso, he decidido retomar mi canal mostrando lo que sé hacer, dibujar. Actualmente, estoy aprendiendo a dibujar digitalmente y Procreate me permite mostrar el proceso de mis obras. Poco a poco voy aprendiendo a editar los videos y usar musicas sin copyright, YouTube ha cambiado mucho para mí!, antes era mucho más sencillo. Si aún quieren seguirme sabiendo quien soy, estaré muy agradecido, ya que me encanta mostrar mi trabajo. Suelo agradecer muchísimo los comentarios, buenos y malos, y suelo responderlos todos. Muchísimas gracias por vuestra atención y comprensión. ¡Paz y amor para todos! Nail of Gilead Hello everyone! They will wonder who I am and why I have a channel with almost 200,000 subscribers without being anyone. In 2005 the YouTube platform was born and I had a video file with the Tarzan Boy song from Baltimore. So everyone could upload any type of video and I decided to try that one. I don't know the reason why YouTube allows me to have that video on my channel, but it doesn't generate any economic income for me nor does it generate it with any other video that I own. In short, thanks to that video I have a lot of followers, but I can't monetize my channel. Later, I uploaded videos that I made with my friends for fun, but they hardly had any views. They didn't matter either. Over time, my channel grew little by little, but it wasn't thanks to my videos, of course. Thanks to that music video that does not belong to me, I have managed to have so many followers, but they do not follow me, but that successful song that has now become even more popular thanks to the 2nd episode of the fourth season of Stranger Things. I'm especially excited to have so many followers, but I know it's not me they admire. For this reason, I have decided to resume my channel showing what I know how to do, draw. Currently, I am learning to draw digitally and Procreate allows me to show the process of my works. Little by little I am learning to edit videos and use music without copyright, YouTube has changed a lot for me! Before it was much simpler. If you still want to follow me knowing who I am, I will be very grateful, since I love to show my work. I usually really appreciate comments, good and bad, and I tend to reply to all of them. I have used a translator to explain this. Excuse the grammatical errors. Thank you very much for your attention and understanding. Peace and love for everyone! Nail of Gilead
