And you probably already know it that none of them actually sing but it’s Frank Farian, the producer. And yeah, the same guy who brought us Milli Vanilli. Difference being that with Boney M. he didn’t even pretend that the dancers actually sang – they were there to dance and look pretty

I don't know why it works but it's one of the best things I've ever seen.

I've been listening to the cover by Turisas for years without even realizing that it's a cover.

You actually thought it was a metal song? LMAO

[–] TheRedSpade@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Considering that's the only version I'd heard and I can barely understand a word of it, why would I not?

Heard this tune on the radio this morning and was wondering why they were saying 'wunderbar' in a song about a Russian mystic.

Thanks for the band and artist details. : -)
