Boonika Bate Doba

• A2

Artist: Zdob Si Zdub
Song: Boonika Bate Doba

This is the very first entry by Moldova in the Eurovision Song Contest. The came 6th in
contest in Kiev, Ukraine. Great entry, catchy song, well deserved placing.
I still think the song is a bit weird: Bunica bate doba translates to "Grandmama beats
drum - A song about a Grandmamma - WTF? She's screaming like Hawkins - WTF?

Anyway, this way one of my fav's from eurovision, So here's the tab:

Intro (Just Drums)

Verse 1 (Each chord plucked like below)

    A2   D2     Em   G   (Fiddle around on the Em/G part)

Pluck each note for the chords below (You'll get the idea!)

A2             D2       A2             D2
It's a jump up jungle, little like a break beat
A2            D2     Em             G
Never seen that hit, bunica beat da drum-a
A2               D2       A2            D2
Big mallet in the hand, high hat in the same beat
A2            D2               Em             G
She's screaming like Hawkins, my old big mama
A2            D2          A2            D2
Bunica beat da drum-a like I never heard before
A2            D2                 Em             G
She's a slapping miss Blackman, gimme some more
A2            D2         A2            D2
Check it, let's kick it, we wanna dance now
A2            D2            Em             G

Verse 2 (Same as first)

I love so much doba making boom-boom
Now get your body moving, just follow the tune
It's a real magic, big mama play her drumma
She's flying into trance like an Indian shaman

Dizzy tempo dizzy, let's go my music mama

People in da place, feel your body shakes
Bunica beat da drum-a tapping out the breaks
Pop you up with dat beat

Drain a bottle of wine, no need to roll the leaves
