"Tribal Dance" was the second single to be released by the band 2 Unlimited from their second album No Limits and reached number 4 on the UK charts and number 7 on the US dance chart. The track featured a trumpet riff throughout the song and the accompanying video was set in the jungle using blue screen in order to create the appearance of members of the band swinging across a jungle backdrop. The "say that again" lyric at the start of the track was sampled from the film Back to the Future. The song is also featured in the 2006 film Final Destination 3.
