Sam Kinison - Wild Thing : Have You Seen Me Lately?
The Troggs - Wild Thing : The Troggs
The original, released in '66 by the British band The Troggs, was a hit right off the bat, and is famous enough to have its own Wikipedia entry.The Kingsmen - Wild Thing : The Kingsmen
This version, also amazingly from '66, sounds like the toned down version your parents would want you to listen to.Jimi Hendrix - Wild Thing (live) : The Ultimate Experience
Oh Jimi, what magic you could work with that guitar of yours. You certainly did have magic fingers.Tone-Loc - Wild Thing : Loc-ed After Dark
This version has absolutely nothing to do with the other versions other than sharing the title and not much else. Where as "wild thing" in the previous versions referred to the woman you wished you were with, "wild thing" in this song refers to what you wish you were doing with the before-mentioned "wild thing."
