Cotton Eye Joe segna l’esordio nella dance degli anni 90 del gruppo musicale svedese dei Rednex.
Questo brano viene alla luce nel lontano 1994 e si ispira al tradizionale brano country Cotton Eyed Joe, le sonorità infatti sono tipiche della musica country.
Il singolo in questione ebbe in poco tempo enorme successo, tanto da scalare tutte le classifiche dance mondiali ottenendo anche diversi primi posti in molti paesi europei e non.
In Germania con più di un milione di copie vendute ha addirittura vinto il disco di diamante.
Come tutti i brani dance degli anni 90, anche questo è stato oggetto di innumerevoli remix, ultimo dei quali quello del 2002.

Rednex Cotton Eye Joe
Testo
I’d been married a long time ago
Where did you come from, where did you go?
Where did you come from, Cotton-Eye Joe?
I’d been married a long time ago
Where did you come from, where did you go?
Where did you come from, Cotton-Eye Joe?
I’d been married a long time ago
Where did you come from, where did you go?
Where did you come from, Cotton-Eye Joe?
I’d been married a long time ago
Where did you come from, where did you go?
Where did you come from, Cotton-Eye Joe?
He rode through the fields, so handsome and strong
His eyes was his tools and his smile was his gun
But all he had come for was having some fun
I’d been married a long time ago
Where did you come from, where did you go?
Where did you come from, Cotton-Eye Joe?
I’d been married a long time ago
Where did you come from, where did you go?
Where did you come from, Cotton-Eye Joe?
The hearts of the girls was to Hell, broken, sent
They all ran away so nobody would know
And left only men ‘cause of Cotton-Eye Joe
I’d been married a long time ago
Where did you come from, where did you go?
Where did you come from, Cotton-Eye Joe?
I’d been married a long time ago
Where did you come from, where did you go?
Where did you come from, Cotton-Eye Joe?
I’d been married a long time ago
Where did you come from, where did you go?
Where did you come from, Cotton-Eye Joe?
I’d been married a long time ago
Where did you come from, where did you go?
Where did you come from, Cotton-Eye Joe?
I’d been married a long time ago
Where did you come from, where did you go?
Where did you come from, Cotton-Eye Jo
