Trust In Me - Siouxsie & the Banshees
Check out this Jungle Book cover of Trust In Me by glam-post-punk rock band SIOUXSIE & THE BANSHEES.
I have never heard of this band before but upon doing some research, it looks like they has a very successful career in the UK and recorded eleven albums! The album you can find Trust In Me is a cover album released in 1987 called THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS. You can find covers of everyone from Billy Holiday, Iggy Pop, the Doors, Sparks and Kraftwerk!
So far I have only heard this one track but their style seems to really work! It has a great feel and very creative uses of the harp! I think it would be more likely for me to by hypnotized by the singing in this version rather than the Sterling Holloway original.
Siouxsie & the Banshees were active from 1976-1996 but the lead singer, Siouxsie Sioux, is still releasing albums! In fact one came out last month!

May I recommend the version of this song that Belly did? It was a B-Side, originally, I believe, but it's available on 'Sweet Ride: The Best of Belly'(2002). Singer Tanya Donnelly really brings out the latent eroticism in the song - even more than Siouxsie, I think...

i was thinking the same- i think i have the "Trust in Me" on the Japanese-released Belly b-side collection, "Baby Silvertooth".
