Trust in me, just in me
Shut your eyes and trust in me
You can sleep safe and sound
Knowing I am around

Slip into silent slumber
Sail on a silver mist
Slowly and surely your senses
Will cease to resist

Trust in me, just in me
Shut your eyes and trust in me

I remember this song from my younger years, when it was sung by Kaa, on the album of the Jungle Book (you know, Mowhli, Balou and the others). A lot of good songs on that album


Great songs, great movie!

love it, but can only give it a 7 because it pales in comparison with the original.

Remember when they introduced cd's and sold them as being "indestructable"?  Can't imagine why I didn't feel guilty using napster...

amazing.. I just filed away a new CD I just bought and it happened to be next to next to another CD I hadn't heard yet, so I brought it down to play... it is Sarah Aranella - Trust In Me, and guess what starts playing in RP as I bring it down.

I like it.  Had it on a complication CD and a date pointed out it was a Disney song.

I wish I could find a copy of the old Jungle Book LP with the story pages inside the album cover.  Mine seems to have disappeared.  My little boy (now 38) and I wore that thing out!

You might as well play Louis Prima's "I wanna be like you" from the Jungle Book (it rocks) for continuity of the theme
 
Yup

It is probably easier to model a boa constrictor as a one-dimensional spline.

Anyways, Good to hear this set again. I liked it the first time, I liked it the next time.

Posted 18 years ago by liser    [ Reply ]
Sorry, let me clarify. "I wanna be like you" was sung by King Louie the Ape in Jungle Book. "Trust in me" was sung by Kaa the snake in the same movie.

Clever, but I find the voice inadequate and rather thin; it reminds me of Edie Brickell's.

Finally put my finger on it, feels like something from a Disney Movie, like a scene from Aladdin. Edit: Oh, it was Jungle Book, thanks Anires! (guess I should have read back even further in the comments and the mystery would have been solved sooner - oh well)
Posted 19 years ago by justlistening    [ Reply ]
Jungle Book being one of my fave Diz flicks I am stoked to hear this remake. ~applaud~
Posted 19 years ago by Anires    [ Reply ]
Not bad, but personally much rather prefer Siouxsie's cover of this.
Posted 20 years ago by fortyseven    [ Reply ]
Not crazy about this one, but do appreciate the segway from Emmylou Harris' "Snake Song".

Posted 20 years ago by Ziller    [ Reply ]
Don't complain! As covers go, this is a huge improvement over Dolly Parton's repugnant rendition of Collective Soul's "Shine" played earlier today. I couldn't eat for hours. After this creative take, however, I'm feeling a bit...hungry. P.S. I'm with daveh25 -the Louis Prima I Wanna Be Like You slays Los Lobos' effort.

Strangely appealing.
Posted 20 years ago by justlistening    [ Reply ]
It took me a while to figure out why this song sounded so distantly familiar. I think it is pretty funny how she can reach back to something like this and have it basically fit in with current world beat portfolio.
Posted 20 years ago by Typesbad    [ Reply ]
This is a pretty good version but Holly Cole's version reigns supreme.
Posted 20 years ago by suzanimals    [ Reply ]
Appealing and irritating by equal measures.

"This is the song the boa constrictor sings to Mowgli in the Jungle Book!" Thanks! It was driving me crazy! "Hmmm, which Disney flick is this from?" I couldn't get anything done at work til this conundrum was cleared.
