FANCY

There are four bands named Fancy. The most famous is Manfred Alois Segieth or Manfred Aulhausen. He started his career back in 1984 with his two successful singles Slice Me Nice and Chinese Eyes.

For most of the next year (1986) Fancy was on the road, performing in European as well as US dance clubs. He really became famous with his 1987 album Flames Of Love.

A teaser clip for In The Jungle featured a child preparing to fight a tiger (topped off with the riff from Eye of the Tiger at the end), but that’s all window dressing for the true talking point here – the track itself.
