"King Kong" is a single released by the eurodance group E-Rotic in 2001. In 2005 it was covered by J-Pop girl group Hinoi Team, and again in 2006 by the Germany-based J-pop group Shanadoo.[1][2]
E-Rotic's version
In September 2001, E-Rotic released "King Kong" in Germany. One month later, the song was featured in the album Sex Generation.
Music Video
Like most of E-Rotic's videos, King Kong is a surreal cartoon that takes place in the ongoing E-Rotic character universe. The video features a group of island natives with the intention of sacrificing three topless girls to a giant gorilla, a new character named "King Kong".
Some scenes from E-Rotic's previous music video, "Billy Jive (With Willy's Wife)", reappeared here.

In July, 2005 Hinoi Team release "King Kong" as the group's second single. This single was released only in Japan.
Although Hinoi Team's version retains a sprinkle of the English lyrics, this version was re-written in Japanese. The lyrics also change the sexual innuendo theme of the song into a childlike love song.
Music Video
The video features Hinoi Team dancing in front of a waterfall, with solo scenes in a fantasy-like garden. They dance the para para routine for King Kong, a popular style of dance in Japan.
