Johnossi a duo from Sweden. Those two members are (from left) Oskar "Ossi" Bonde (drums, percussions, vocals) and John Engelbert (vocals, guitar, lyricist). So simply together they are Johnossi. Believe it or not it took quite some time before I got it, sad to admit.
Johnossi plays also tambourine, guiro, chims etc. Their lyrics are a bit angsty and the following song is one of the cheerest ones.
John and Ossi met when they were under 16 years old and duo was formed in 2004. They relesed their first album only after five moths of performing and financed the album with the income of their gigs. And now one of their albums has been released in Japan where thay also performed first time in 2009.
This song is very creepy but oh so true. The music video is brilliant - it has that something. You can watch it when you click the title of the song.
We're the people, the lucky
With the fragile bones
The ones who sit and worry
About getting to old
We're the people, the happy
With the broken hearts
The ones who draw a picture
And proclaim that it´s art
But you, and you, and you and you
You're just an animal developed into
You and you and you and you
A monkey needs to dance so do you
We're the people, the lucky
With the fragile bones
The ones who sit and worry
About catching a cold
We're the people, the happy
With the broken hearts
The ones who draw a picture
And proclaim that it´s art
But you, and you, and you and you
You're just an animal developed into
You and you and you and you
A monkey needs to dance so do you
*You like to do it as a child on your own
You're in the jungle and the monkeys
Take your mind from your home
How many time do they have to tell you
That it's perfectly fine for you to dance around
Naked when you're all by yourself*
Cause' you, and you, and you and you
You're just an animal developed into
You and you and you and you
A monkey needs to dance so do you
We're the people, the lucky
With the fragile bones
The ones who sit and worry
About getting to old
You're the monkey in the jungle
Trying to find your place
The one who let the sunset
Bring a silly kind of smile on your face
But you, and you, and you and you
You're just an animal developed into
You and you and you and you
A monkey needs to dance so do you
*You like to do it as a child...*
Cause you, and you, and you and you
You're just an animal developed into
You and you and you and you
A monkey needs to dance so do you
