Iko Iko
Man, does this song ever take me back to the '80s. It's a cover of the Dixie Cups "Iko Iko," this version recorded by the all-girl English group The Belle Stars in '82 and subsequently used in Rainman and another Tom Cruise film, Mission Impossible 2.

I've always been partial to the Long John Baldry version of it myself. This version always struck me as too restrained and commerical. I like it a little more visceral. although sung with a little more melody than Dr. John is able to muster.
