how was it possible for one group to come up with sooooooo many hits I actually enjoy listening to and singing along to? all of their songs are wonderful hit songs; it's just crazy how catchy they are.
i was 7, at school in ely, cardiff, wales. it was christmas, the entire school gathered in a big circle while the sole black girl in school stood in the middle and danced with all her heart to this song - a true story. and yet... it was all so innocent, nobody had any malice but they wouldn't try that these days!
Yes. I could never understand why they didn't make a bigger impact on the charts in the US. Their music was ultra-commercial and FUN. I had the "Nightflight to Venus" album and played it a lot. Some great stuff on there.
the group was put together in West Germany by Frank Farian the original four memebers line-up were 2 Jamaican Liz Mitchell and Marcia Barrett ,1 Montserratian Maizie Williams and 1 Aruban Bobby Farell there was a change times later. This group was well known in my island country Samoa in the South Pacific and all their songs were heard on the radio and all local bands play them at fiafia night. One of the best in their time ..... always remember.
i wish we still had music like dis reminds me of the old days back in guyana sitting on my uncles front porch with a coconut cutting it to get coconut water
Wow thanks this is a childhood tune I just ran into today after years of looking for it. Thanks a lot to yahoo answers. Of course black women are so beautiful, sweet and full of life and god has blessed them with amazing figues for the most part. I love you Boney M. I love it even more because its a song to a children's game. Thank you for posting.

This song was very popular when I went to Germany in 1978. It brings back wonderful memories of good times with good people.
i was 7, at school in ely, cardiff, wales.
it was christmas, the entire school gathered in a big circle while the sole black girl in school stood in the middle and danced with all her heart to this song - a true story.
and yet... it was all so innocent, nobody had any malice but they wouldn't try that these days!
She was a star then ?
it reminds me of many fond fond memories of the 70's
This is way too precious! brings back serious memories from my childhood. Remember dancing in the school yard to this song! sweet man!
Lizzy's voice is sweet.
I've come across the phrase "I'd die listening"...
What a nostalgic experience..takes us all the way back to the 80's when we were crazy about BoneyM
Yes. I could never understand why they didn't make a bigger impact on the charts in the US. Their music was ultra-commercial and FUN. I had the "Nightflight to Venus" album and played it a lot. Some great stuff on there.
Bob Marley had no top 40 hits in the US while he was alive.
this song has filled - touched if you will - a void in my life.
Beautiful, happy people, loving life. What an amazing song - takes me back to my childhood in the 1970s.
I love Boney M. No matter how bad life gets their music makes me smile.
Love this song - memories of good times! Long live Boney M in RUclips land!
Liz Mitchell and her voice control is just phenomenal.
I LOVE TOUCHING THE VOID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I heard this song when I was little, n my words were totally different :) Brown Girl, Brown n Proud.

Who cares what it's about. Brilliant song. Bought it from iTunes and got it played on the radio.
the group was put together in West Germany by Frank Farian the original four memebers line-up were 2 Jamaican Liz Mitchell and Marcia Barrett ,1 Montserratian Maizie Williams and 1 Aruban Bobby Farell there was a change times later.
