The
lyrics on this track are quite quirky covering the familiar
topic of resisting one’s urges:
“The call of the wild is driving
me crazy, bear with me baby.
I’ll keep it together; I’ll keep it together,”
The second track is the Gus Gus original
version, which contains slower and eerier instrumentals
especially at the
start. The music resembles that which you would expect to
be the soundtrack that accompanies a scary mission into the
coldest and darkest recesses of the arctic. This is most
certainly the best arrangement on the single with the song
slowly building up, before the introduction of Daniel’s
warm and welcoming vocals. Josh’s ‘Call of the
Wink’ remix rounds matters off, though by the time
this comes on you know every single lyric and get the impression
that although it contains some intriguing distorted vocals
to add a little variety, two versions of the song would have
sufficed.
