# Making that ZingZilla sound. #

Listen to this, Drum.

Huh?

Well, these watermelons DJ Loose gave us sound unusual

when you hit them. Like a melony melody!

You could play them instead of your drums.

But...melon for eating!

I know. But it would be good to use new sounds in the Big Zing.

Sounds no-one's ever heard before!

ZING-ZING! ZING-ZING!

Morning, DJ!

Hey, Tang.

'You like the watermelon?'

Oh, yeah! They sound great!

Listen.

Ha-ha-ha. You were supposed to eat them!

But while we're talking interesting sounds,

the Glade. Be there. Some new music to hear.

Panzee and Zak are already swinging on over.

We'll be there soon as, DJ.

Come along, Drum. DJ's got some interesting sounds to hear.

Wee-hee!

Glad you could all drift through. And you will be, too!

Wait till you hear the sounds I've got for you today.

This is our old friend, Evelyn Glennie.

-ALL: Yay!

-She plays the waterphone.

Bananaphone?

No, Drum! A waterphone.

It's an instrument, but not one you use for talking to each other.

I was playing the watermelon earlier.

Does it sound like that?

No. It sounds more watery.

Have a listen.

EVELYN PLAYS THE WATERPHONE

Wow! The sounds carry on after Evelyn's played.

It's like when you're swimming, and the water makes the noises you hear

sound all long and wavy.

THEY CHEER

-Oh, wow!

-Whale!

Yes, Drum. I could hear the sound of a whale, too!

It was the sound of the ocean, DJ.

Deep down, under the waves.

Yes, Tang. Music can sound like all the natural sounds around us.

Hey, DJ, in today's Big Zing,

we could play music that sounds like the sounds we hear in the jungle!

The ones that echo around the trees.

-Brilliant!

-Sounds cool to me.

Come on, ZingZillas!

Hmm. Sounds of the jungle...

Oh, I'm really excited. What jungle sounds do you think Tang will use

-in today's Big Zing?

-Oh, I don't know.

But I do know that it's Coconut Number One!

Tang could use the sound of a coconut when they clunk into the drop.

Hmm. And there are a lot of coconuts in the jungle.

Including the three more coconuts to go till the Big Zing!

Listen, we've already found some ways to make great jungle-like sounds

with our own instruments.

My keyboard can sound like the waterfall.

SHE PLAYS GENTLE, FLOWING MUSIC

Oh, you know I can sound like the birds in the trees.

HE WHISTLES

Drum walk in leaves!

Oh, great sound, Drum!

It's just like taking a walk through the jungle.

We can make a totally jungle Big Zing!

Yeah!

# Everywhere you go

# Everything you do

# Listen to the sounds

# There's always something new

# Whales in the waves

# And swimming in the sea

# Noises from afar

# Calling out to me... #

Come on, Tang, join in!

OK...

Um...

Right...um...

Oh...I'm sorry, but I can't think of a noise I could make

that sounds like the jungle.

I'd really like to make a sound that's never been heard before.

Something amazing!

And I'm going to find it!

HAIRDRYER WHIZZES

Ooh, that's an unusual sound.

Oh, but it's not a jungle sound.

What's that, Tang? Not a jungle sound?

Of course it's a jungle sound!

I'm a mandrill, and I'm standing in the jungle!

Yes, but I don't think a mandrill using a hairdryer

is the jungle sound I'm looking for.

But thanks, anyway! Bye, Todd!

Bye!

Hmm, jungle sounds.

CHIRPING AND CLICKING

What is that?

CHIRPING AND CLICKING

I've never heard a sound like that before.

Oh, it's that little bug!

HE STRUMS

BUG CHIRPS AND CLICKS

I don't think I could make your sound, though.

But maybe you could be in the jungle Big Zing

and make your sound yourself!

I'm going to get the others to come and listen to you.

Stay there. Don't hop off!

BUG CHIRPS AND CLICKS

# Well, there are waves

# Swimming in the sea

# Noises from afar

# Calling out to me... #

Oh, Zak! Come and hear a great new jungle sound!

Oh, I'll go get Panzee and Drum.

Oh, there's no time! Bug might hop away! Come on!

I found the jungle sound!

It's perfect for the song.

Wait for me, Tang!

I'm glad Tang has found his sound, cos it's...

Coconut Number Two!

Only two more coconuts to go until the Big Zing!

It was the most beautiful jungle sound ever, Zak!

And made by a little jungle bug.

-A bug?!

-Yes, it was right here.

I can't hear anything.

Oh, no.

It must have hopped off somewhere.

Bug? Bug!

It doesn't matter if you can't find the bug, Tang.

-You can make the noise yourself.

-I can't make it with my guitar.

I need to find Bug. I want Bug to make its sound in the Big Zing!

A bug? Make a noise in the jungle Big Zing?

-Wow! That's a brilliant idea.

-It will be if I can find it.

-Let's go on a bug hunt!

-Great!

Er...Tang?

How can I look for a bug I haven't seen?

Or listen out for a bug I haven't heard?

I won't know what to look for or listen to.

It'll be impossible. Tang?

I'll go back and practise the song with the others,

so it's ready for when you come back.

Bug! Bug!

Where are you?

Bug!

Ohh! Bug?

Oh, there you are.

Oh, and you're still making your lovely noise.

-BUG CHIRPS AND CLICKS

-Come on.

Gently... gently!

Almost dry.

Gently... gently!

-Hello, Tang!

-Oh, Todd! You've blown my bug away!

Oh! Sorry, I did what?

You've blown away my bug.

It was going to make a lovely sound in the Jungle Big Zing.

Did you see where Bug went?

I can't see it anywhere.

You need to find a bug, you say? Oh.

Oh! Wait here.

Bug! Bug!

Ta-dah!

How do we find a bug with your wheelbarrow?

Well, we put flowers, leaves and some grass inside,

and your bug will think the wheelbarrow looks lovely and cosy

-and hop right in.

-And we wheel it back to the others

and it can be in the Big Zing! Brilliant, Todd!

Time to find a bug!

BUG CHIRPS AND CLICKS

That's Bug! He's close.

One more lovely, buggy flower.

Hide, hide!

BUG CHIRPS AND CLICKS

It worked, Todd. Brilliant!

Let's wheel the bug back to the clubhouse.

Ooh!

Oh, no, Bug's gone!

And it'll never come back now!

Bug's frightened of us.

Oops! I only wanted to give the bug a little ride in the wheelbarrow,

so he could join in your Big Zing.

I know, you didn't mean to frighten it, Todd.

Come on, let's go and see DJ Loose. He'll know what to do.

I hope they find Bug soon,

because it's coconut number three!

The bug's gone and there's only one more coconut to go

until the Big Zing!

Hi, DJ. We need your help to find Bug.

-Er... DJ?

-Yes?

-Why so many watermelons?

I need a lot of melons

for my new Coconut Hut drinks and snacks.

Oh!

Melon juice, melon ice cream,

and who says watermelons are just for eating?

You can use them for bowling, too!

Good ducking, ladies.

# Umm, err... #

Want to try?

No, thank you, DJ.

I need to find Bug.

I heard the best ever jungle sound for the Big Zing.

A clicky, ticky, rattly sort of sound.

Hmm. Perhaps the bug doesn't want to be in your Big Zing, Tang.

Some creatures want to be wild and free.

You can't tell them what to do or put them where they want to be.

Let them be.

But if I just let Bug be,

how will everyone be able to hear its lovely sound

in the Jungle Big Zing?

You can't make Bug play in the Big Zing

if it would rather hop around the jungle instead.

I would put Bug back in the jungle after the Big Zing, DJ.

It would be wild and free then.

-BUG CHIRPS AND CLICKS

-Ohh! It's Bug!

So, Bug's wild and free, and it likes watermelon.

Oh! Oh, look at it nibbling. Can I show Bug to the others now, DJ?

If it doesn't hop away again, I don't see why not.

Oh, great!

# Everywhere you go

# Everything you do

# Listen to the sounds

# There's always something new... #

(Hi, everyone.)

-Tang! You're back!

-Sshh!

-Does that mean you've found the bug?

We certainly did, thanks to DJ's watermelon.

-And here is Bug!

-BUG CHIRPS AND CLICKS

Bug noise great!

Oh, yes. And the sound will be brilliant in our Big Zing.

Come on, everyone. Let's get ready for a jumping jungle song!

Tang, we can ask DJ's guest, Evelyn, to join in too on the waterphone.

So it's not just a Jungle Big Zing,

it will be a Totally Tropical Island Big Zing,

with sea sounds AND jungle sounds!

Oh, that will make a great song even greater, Panzee!

What do you say, Bug?

BUG CHIRPS AND CLICKS

That sounds like a buggy yes to me!

THEY ALL CHEER

Oh, and they've found Bug just in time, because it's...

TOGETHER: The last coconut!

ALL: It's time for the Big Zing!

THEY CHEER

# ZingZillas

# ZingZillas

# ZingZillas! #

It's that time of the day when we like to say,

it's Big Zing time!

So take it away!

Hello, everybody!

Today's Big Zing is a musical journey around our island.

From the birds, flying high up in the trees,

to the fish, swimming deep down in the sea.

Making the rippling, wavy sounds

from under the sea is Evelyn Glennie!

ALL: Yay!

And making the juicy jungle sounds

is the one and only Bug!

THEY CHEER

Beautifully buggy and totally tropical!

Bug's gone back to the jungle, Drum.

Like DJ said, Bug's wild and free.

Oh! Bye-bye, Bug.

-Yes.

-TOGETHER: Bye-bye, Bug!

Night, Todd.

Goodnight, ZingZillas.
