Ja Da 03:05
The chorus is a simple phonetic: "Ja da, ja da, ja da ja da jing jing jing." The "verse" of sorts is self-referential: "That is a funny little bit of melody/ It's soothing and appealing to me." What Jess sings on this track is a result of the phenomenon of "telephone;" she picked this tune up in New Orleans and began singing the lyrics with much more suggestive undertones: "First I'm gonna play you a melody/ I'll play it for you if you play it for me."
