Shock the Monkey" is a song by English rock musician Peter Gabriel. It was released in September 1982 as the second single from his fourth self-titled album, issued in the US under the title Security. The song peaked at number 29 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart and number one on the Billboard Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart. The song was Gabriel's first Top 40 hit in the US. In the UK, the song charted at number 58.

Peter Gabriel is the fourth eponymous album released by English rock musician Peter Gabriel; in the United States, the album was originally released under the title Security. The songs on the album cover a wide variety of subject matter. The Rhythm of the Heat" is based on Carl Jung's experience while observing a group of African drummers.

Peter Gabriel saying that this song is about love is like Paul McCartney swearing that "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" is not about LSD-25. Yeah, Peter, whatever! Chris from Germany This song is still good and awesome. Chris from DetroitIn an interview, Peter Gabriel himself said that "Shock the Monkey" is a love song. The monkey is a metaphor for the emotions we wake up when we have feelings for another person. It's actually a very simple song, as he himself has said, but the video makes it seemed much darker and more complicated. Genesis performed best in the early 70's with their "Selling England By The Pound" album. Each member of the band puts so much effort into their music on this album. At the time, Peter Gabriel wanted to take "art rock" to a place it has never been before. The group also incorporates many different kinds of instruments into the driving force of his shows.

Released 5th September, 1982. Co-produced by Peter and David Lord this is the first album where Peter really immersed himself in the music of distant lands and cultures. It was also his first fully digital recording. The single Shock The Monkey became Peter’s first top 30 hit on the Billboard Hot 100. The fourth album was done at Ashcombe House, an old farm house in a beautiful valley, about five miles from where we are now at Real World. It was a typical sort of landlord situation because there was never any money spent on it; there was rain coming through, rats and dry rot. We had a serious outbreak. Four’, in some ways, was a more home-produced album, partly because it was the first one in my own studio. Initially, we had a mobile outside the farm building and then gradually built a studio as we went along.

Shock the Monkey" was played in at least two FM Radio stations in my city in 1982-83 and also years later. But I prefer the live version which was included in his "Plays Live" album from 1983. Soft Dog", in the Side "B" of this single, and which was not included in the album, is an almost instrumental musical piece, very simple, but very similar to other songs from the album. GABRIEL only sings for a brief time the title of the song at the end of it. A song with a guitar riff, a stick bass, a saxophone, a synthesiser, and a bit of drums.

Monkey, monkey, monkey Don't you know you gotta, shock the monkey Hey, hey! Fox the fox Rat all the rats You can ape the ape I know about that. There is one thing you must be sure of I can't take anymore Dieing Don't you monkey with the monkey Hey!. Shock the Monkey is a cover of the Peter Gabriel song and is the eighth song on Chamber Music. Its inclusion was most likely an attempt to be part of a trend at the time where nu-metal bands covered 80’s pop hits (. Disturbed’s Shout 2000, Orgy’s Blue Monday ). It features guest vocals from Ozzy Osbourne and keyboards from E. Blue (aka Elijah Allman, the son of Cher and Greg Allman). The song’s popularity was boasted by a video directed by Dean Karr.
