everytime i play this strange chill song im thinking that this may be to easy... Im thinking that maybe mike should done more with this song. For one reason i dont know if this is a song that is made by mike.. (is it a celtic or tradisional song)
I think its (sorry for this) but a little to boring... i dont know....
Something dont give me the "must" to hear this Jungel Gardenia. E verytime i play this i hear it 20 sek and then skip it.. From now i have heard it 7 times just to get the answer.. and i cant tell what im not satisfight with! What do you think about this song??
:/

Well, you know my answer already. ;)

Personally, I've never felt any lacks in the facture, it's kind of similar to Muse in my eyes, but with Mike's typical 80's atmosphere. It's a great guitar-practising melody anyway.

its true that jungel g is similar to muse, but muse is much better i think. They both last only fwe minutes and are short. The thing with jungel g must be that it dont have "life".. Its too low and the guitar dont seem to have "the something"
If Mike have done something more with this song. I think he could done that.
Did this song come with the single High places??
Was this the first place. For i know this song from "the complete mike...."

I dunno, I always liked Jungle Gardenia. I wouldn't say it's similar to Muse (if anything, Muse is similar to Jungle Gardenia, :) ), but it sure has that "Crises" vibe. Maybe the thing it's "lacking" it's just because it was never supposed to be anything more than a B-side?

I love Jungle Gardenia because it has very fine guitar sounding in it, that was also one of my first songs of mike.  :)
