"Everybody Gonfi-Gon" is a song by Italian Eurodance project Two Cowboys. It was released in June 1994 as the project's debut single. Drawing comparisons to other string-driven country-dance hits at the time, including The Grid's "Swamp Thing" and "Cotton Eye Joe" by Rednex,[2] "Everybody Gonfi-Gon" became a hit single as well, reaching number two in Finland and Iceland and peaking within the top 10 in Austria, Denmark, Ireland, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom.

Critical reception[]

Andy Beevers from Music Week gave the song four out of five. He wrote, "This irritating house hoe-down from Italy is threatening to be the next Doop. It has a Western flavour similar to The Grid's Banjo and Bravado's Harmonica Man but is far more cheesy. It was initially snapped up for UK releases by 3-Beat, although it has been sub-licensed to ffrr to make the most of its chart potential."[3] James Hamilton from the magazine's RM Dance Update deemed it a "madly happy fiddle and banjo prodded galloping square dance/disco hybrid".[4]
