Emma Louise first floated "Jungle" on Triple J Unearthed on 5 March 2011, then released it properly on 31 March as the lead single from her second EP, Full Hearts and Empty Rooms. The Australian singer wrote it alone and plays guitar alongside Mark Myers, who also covers bass and keys and produced and engineered the track, with Daniel Ogilive on drums and percussion. It won Song of the Year at the 2011 Queensland Music Awards.
Its second life was bigger than its first. German DJ Wankelmut turned it into "My Head Is a Jungle", a January 2013 remix that carried it overseas; her own version charted in several countries, reaching three in France, and in January 2022 it went viral all over again on TikTok.
