I Eat Cannibals

"I Eat Cannibals" was released in the United Kingdom in 1982 and in the United States in January 1983. For all the 7-inch singles released outside North America, "I Eat Cannibals" was split into two halves, with Part 1 as the A-side and Part 2 as the B-side. ==Critical reception==

Writing for Billboard, Leo Sacks called "I Eat Cannibals" "lots of fun" and compared it to Toni Basil's 1982 hit "Mickey". Another writer likened the song to an African version of the Go-Go's' music, while Larry Flick retrospectively called the song a guilty pleasure in 1993. ==Music video==

A music video directed by Mike Brady and produced by Jon Roseman was filmed for the song. It features Toto Coelo dancing to the song on a stage with tropical props. At the beginning, the stage is lit with a bright white light, but when Toto Coelo member Lacey Bond waves a wand over a balloon, the white light turns off, revealing colourful tubes of light on the props. The video received medium rotation on MTV and was nominated for Best Use of Video to Enhance Artists' Image at the Fifth Annual Billboard Music Video Conference. ==Track listings==
