"Bongo Bong" and "Je ne t'aime plus" (English: "I Don't Love You Anymore") are two pop songs originally written and performed by Manu Chao. In 2006, the songs were combined into one track and covered by British singer Robbie Williams. The track was produced by Mark Ronson, and was released as a promotional single from Williams' seventh solo album, Rudebox, in Eastern Europe in early 2007. Vocals for the song were also provided by the English pop artist Lily Allen. The track does not have a music video, but EMI Music México nevertheless released the song to radio. Promo copies were sent in the beginning of 2007 and the single was released as digital download in early February.
