Emma Louise

"Jungle" is a song by Australian singer Emma Louise, which was released on March 31, 2011. It was included in her debut EP Full Hearts & Empty Rooms from the same year. The song gained international success with a remix by German DJ Wankelmut in 2013. Emma Louise's solo version has charted in its own right in a number of countries, most notably peaking number 3 on the French Singles Chart. After the success of the Wankelmut remix, Emma Louise included both versions in her 2013 studio album vs Head vs Heart. A final official remix was made by MK in late 2013.

The song was used in Season 1 Episode 9 of Australian prison drama Wentworth. It was also used in Season 8 Episode 2 of Grey's Anatomy.

Wankelmut remix: My Head Is a Jungle

German producer Wankelmut made a remix of the song, releasing it under the title "My Head Is a Jungle" in 2013. It was released through German label Poesie Musik, a sublabel of Get Physical Music. The remix single charted across Europe, having the most success in Italy and the United Kingdom, where it reached number 5. A remix by MK not released on the original press received airplay in mid-2014, and is more popular by YouTube views than the original.

Music video

In the music video for "Jungle", Emma Louise sings the song stuck in a dark room with light bulbs hanging from the ceiling. In between cutouts, she is there reading a book and opening a suitcase in the attic. The length of the video is 3 minutes and 23 seconds. An edit of the same video was made for the Wankelmut remix at a length of 3 minutes and 33 seconds.
