Boney M was a West German band that was even honored by the English Queen Elizabeth II. The guy is just a dancer, the producer sang. Please listen to their biggest hit "By the Rivers of Babylon". Greetings from Germany. You are very likeable.
I like "Ma Baker" , "Daddy Cool ", "Gotta Go Home " ,my favorite is "Sunny ".
They were not from Germany, but create by a German producer
@@ronaldcardinali2809 They were cast by Frank Farian in Munich and toured small discos all over Germany after the single "Ma Baker". My sister met them at the time.
@@ronaldcardinali2809 Well they lived in Germany.
Yes 👍 💯
This guy had Hammer pants before there were even Hammer pants.
The guy had so much energy I was exhausted just watching the guy .
Top hit in the whole world back in 1979 except the US that is .
A classic now.
He had so much energy because of the cocaine XD
The band as a whole is called Boney M and come from Germany though the performers are ethnically Caribbean. The song's about a Russian historical figure named Rasputin who had a reputation for being depraved but gained influence over the Russian royal family due to his supposed mystical power to heal the crown prince who was a haemophiliac. Jealous nobles decided to end him but only succeeded by poisoning, shooting and drowning him adding to the belief that he really must have had supernatural abilities.
Boney M is :Daddy Cool, Ma Baker, Sunny, Rivers of Babylon, Hooray it’s a Holliday, Mary Boy’s Child [Christmas song].
and Take the Heat off Me!
Boney M is so much fun. The guy is not actually singing. Frank Farian, a record producer, put the band together and did the vocals. I still love them.
Yeah and they killed milli vanilly for the same thing...
@@Isa_barchetta another Frank Farian band! But it was known that the Boney M guy was lip synching and they tried to keep it secret about Milli Vinilli.
@@Gira21Gramos i think the Grammy broke theyr neck.
I mean nowadays no Artist sings properly,they all use autotune änd all the ai stuff
German producer Frank Farian wanted to create a disco group in 1974 and recruited 4 members from the Caribbean - 3 women and 1 man, to become a sensation... However, only 2 women from Jamaica - Marcia Barrett and Liz Mitchell, sang on Boney M records (the rest were session singers and musicians) while Maizie Williams from Monserrat was not utilized, except for her image... Bobby Farrell (from Aruba) was the male member but was not a singer, so he would lip sync to pre-recorded vocals that producer Frank Farian recorded of himself through a distortion. Bobby Farrell was used for his dancing skills to entertain the ladies.
Boney M released their debut album 'Take the heat off me' in 1976... and scored an original hit 'Daddy Cool'... as well as covers of 'Sunny' (by Bobby Hebb) and 'No woman no cry' (by Bob Marley)
2nd album 'Love for sale' was controversial for its cover (Bobby Farrell w/ 3 women in chains) but it had a major hit in 1977 - 'Ma Baker'... as well as the hits - 'Belfast'... and 'Plantation boy'...
Boney M peaked commercially in 1978 w/ their 3rd album 'Nightflight to Venus' (which was their only record to chart in the US, even though they were a sensation worldwide)... the single 'Rasputin' (about the Russian 'holy man' Gregori Rasputin, who was killed in 1916) as well as hits like - 'Rivers of Babylon' ... 'Painter man'...
4th album 'Oceans of fantasy' was another hit record w/ the singles 'Gotta go home' ... 'El Lute'... as well as scoring a non-album hit "Hooray! Hooray! It's a holi-holiday" ... However, it would be Boney M's last hit record as the disco era came to an end by 1980.
Boney M released 'Boonoonoonoos' in 1981, their 6th album but did not promote it as Bobby Farrell was fired and the group's future was uncertain... Reggie Tsiboe was hired as the male member of Boney M and they released 'Ten Thousand Lightyears' in 1984... however, the futuristic album was a commercial disappointment. Boney M rehired Bobby Farrell for their final album 'Eye dance' in 1985 but no one cared...
Boney M disbanded and producer Frank Farian moved on to other projects - he was responsible for recording the Milli Vanilli album and fell into disrepute after the 2 Caribbean models he hired to pose as the pop duo did not sing on the record.
Bobby Farrell passed away in 2010 at age 61.
Exactly what you need to know about Boney M.
Perfect and thank you!
And Liz Mitchell still tours today. She usually comes to Canada in November/December since their Christmas Album was huge. I've seen her a few times. She's still amazing.
Frank never fell into disrepute, he was active and legendary (850 million records sold) up to a few years of his passing.
@@randomtruths3400 He never had the same success again after Milli Vanilli.
In our small rural Ontario Canada town, our high school did a dance to this. Twice a year we’d all crowd into the gym and do it! Wish I could go back!
It is Bobbie, and yes, he is now gone. However, the girls were not backing singers - they ARE the band. Check out Ma Baker.
The 'band' was Frank Farian. 2 of the girls and the guy never sang in reality. The male vocals are Frank recording himself. Some time later Farian did the same with Milli Vanilli and was surprised by the negative reaction since he had done the same with Boney M.
I love this song ❤❤❤❤. Glad you got to hear it
Rasputin was a Russian mystic. The Russian Tsarina believed he was a healer who could heal her son who suffered from hemophilia. A group of nobles lured him and eventually managed to kill him.
The ladies are from Germany.
A lot of the Russian nobility suffered from hemphilia .
Not they are from the Carribean who lived and performed in Germany back then .
I'm 53,and I looove BoneyM, they were the band that was a little bit too naughty for a 7yo, but I loved it and had no clue about lyrics so it was just fine 😅😅😅. Hugs from Sweden.
Songs like this that give a history lesson, are some of my favorites.
The band was created by German record producer Frank Farian, who was the group's primary songwriter. Originally based in West Germany, the four original members of the band's official line-up were Liz Mitchell and Marcia Barrett from Jamaica, Maizie Williams from Montserrat, and Bobby Farrell from Aruba.
Boney M is fun to listen to. "Ma Baker" was huge hit !!!! Love from France, where they were famous too !!
Try Daddy Cool as well.
@linkan7100 yeeesssss
All 3 still jam out my ear buds today 🫡
Another classic "Wedding" song.
Everyone's drunk uncle wants to do the Russian Kick dance.
This was everybody’s favorite band in the Soviet Union, I’m 55 and we danced to this band ay every party.
The first time I heard this was in the 1990s. I loved it so much I got one of those really short cassette tapes and put Rasputin on both sides and just played it on repeat for an entire summer! I was in the best mood all the time!
The “singer” is lip syncing. He’s actually a DJ from some Caribbean island who was picked because he’d keep the ladies entertained. The ladies are actually singing. It’s a great song, you should check out their Christmas album. It’s a holiday classic!!!
You should listen to Brown girl in the ring or By the Rivers of Babylon by them ❤
Not Or.. AND
plus add Marys Boy Child (but wait till Dec :) )
Boney M is the group.
You have a great voice bro ❤
Marys boy child is still played in shopping centres every christmas.The dude in the video is there because he can dance.He is not the singer.If i remember correctly it was two German guys that did the song.Rasputin was a real guy in Russia that was a monk or something.He had an affair with the Tsarin of Russia and apparently a lot of other women.He became so influential that a few guys decided to kill him.They tried to make him drunk but he could hold his booze and later they just shot him multiple times.That is what i remember about the movie about him called Rasputin.
The Producer - Frank Farian - produced also Milli Vanilli
Thats crazy
Been listening to Boney M Greatest Hits and Boney M Christmas album since about age 4, and I'm 49. I thoroughly recommend listening to both albums. With Xmas coming up you could do a couple of their Xmas tunes.
LOOOOVE Boney M. (which is the name of the band.) I'm in my 30's now but when I was a kid my grandpa would play their albums. I've seen Liz Mitchell live a few times now, she still tours. Other greats: Daddy Cool, Rivers of Babylon, Ma Baker, Brown Girl in the Ring, Sunny, Mary's Boy Child/Oh My Lord.
My childhood, they were great.
this group was trendy in the Netherlands when I was little, this music is still played in the Netherlands today. you really need to hear more songs from this group. by the way, Rasputin was a Russian spiritual leader, who was murdered by the royal court in 1916
I love your reactions!
I'm 70 so I was there in the 70s when this hit. Good times.
Boney M is produced by the same Guy who later brought up Milli Vanille.
RIP the legend Bobby Farrell ❤
Boney M was very popular in the 70s, they are from Jamaica, and that song was about Rasputin a mysterious monk that won the favor of the Russian czar wife, because he could heal one of her sons. He had many lovers, and was assassinated by jealousy and envy from the courtesans and favorites of the Czar.
They are not from Jamaica; they are from the Netherlands with a German producer.
I'm a child of the 70's, went to both rock and disco clubs, and the first I heard of this song was on TikTok and Instagram!
I first heard this on a just dance game. It was my favorite one to do. Great workout and fun song. My second favorite song from that game was Proud Mary
Very popular in the UK I remember he had two number one's in the UK with brown girl in the rain and Mary's boy child
The Bony M Christmas album has been a tradition in my house since the 80's
All facts about the man
proud to say that I met him in person many years ago in Italy behind the scenes of a TV show! RIP M
the guy is just dancer, his voice is actually overdubbed from producer frank farian did the male vocals, the ladies are the actual band of boney m. if the name frank farian sounds familiar, he made milli vanilli
What amazes me is how modern listeners find this and many other older songs amazing! Songs from a special time in music, many songs had multiple changes of beats and time signatures. It was pretty normal to us listening to artists like this at the time! Guess we took it for granted...
I bought their album I think it was the 80s I was still a kid. Loved Boney M.
Before Milli Vanilli, there was Boney M. Still love their songs.
I know Boney M, he was the nicest guy at least to me. he help me believe in myself as a artist. RIP Boney M
Their rendition of "Sunny" is also vey good.
The song is about Grigori Rasputin a friend of the last Czar and family of the Russian royalty before the Russian Revolution. Rasputin was a mystic healer, but there were rumors that when The Czar was away Rasputin had an affair with the Czar's wife. The Czar's officials decided to kill him. In one night they poisoned him, shot him multiple times, and after he survived that they threw him in the Neva River to drown him.
I recommend hearing Night Flight To Venus & Rasputin together if you can. The transition from one ot the other is brilliant, and you only hear the end of the transtion on the Rasputin video.
Franz Reuther (18 July 1941 - 23 January 2024), known professionally as Frank Farian, was a German record producer and singer who founded the 1970s disco-pop group Boney M., the Latin pop band No Mercy, and the pop band Milli Vanilli. He frequently created vocal groups in which the publicised members merely lip-synced to songs sung by session performers. Farian owned the record label MCI and several subsidiaries. Over the course of his career, Farian sold over 850 million records and earned 800 gold and platinum certifications.
The producer was Frank Farian who also sang the male voice, he later produced Milli Vanilli who did not sing themselves either
Also Boney M. Is not his real name, he is from Aruba and they speak Dutch.
Love his stuff
Bro. If you do a podcast I think it would do really well.
BIG 70's tune. So much fun! Check out the song "STOMP" by THE JOHNSON BROTHERS. Fantastic song!
Fun fact: the producer of Boney M (Frank Farian) was also the guy who was behind Milli Vanilli
Same guy behind Boney M was behind Milli Vanilli.
I think there was a remix recently. Keep doing what you are doing...
and this was at Sopot festival
Sopot is in polish riviera = beautifull city near baltic sea !
hes trausers is like cossacks one !
and he dance like russians XD
Lit 🔥
My mother had a shop in Vienna. She had a worker, a young woman, she was a real beauty. One day she mentioned that she go to a Boney M. Concert. She said she loves the dancers so much, she wants to marry this man. What should I say....she met him there and married him
I remember Boney M . They have somone good songs
Germany’s favourite Rastafarian disco band. Front man really loved his nose powder. Yep, the girls are the real singers See “Rivers of Babylon”, their best hit.
The song is a pure documentary about a historical person in Russian history.
A sexual cult preacher that gained influence into politics.
The legend was that he drunk the poisoned vodka. He just wanted more. So they shot him. He fell. Then just stood up. So, several more shots, that didn’t seem to affect him. Finally he fell into the river and drowned.
Art Bell used to use this as bumper music for Art Bell Coast to Coast.
Boney M were a German disco group that were huge worldwide in the 70's with the possible exception of the US.
The actual male singer is the producer Frank Farian and not the guy dancing in the video.
Farian also later produced Milli Vanilli
The producer of Boney M also created and produced Milli Vanilli
I doubt any singers can dance that way not being on speed and probably not even then. He's doing it without getting out of breath.
град Сопот,България. Bonnie M was super popular, you've probably heard their other hits or covers of them.
How the hell you didn't heard this man , crazy! This was back in the days when cocaine was pure 🤣
bony m were just class,,, my mum loved them so from an early age i was indoctrinated
The song tells the story of Rasputin the Mad Monk of Russia.
He died on the morning of 30 December 2010, in a hotel room in St. Petersburg, Russia, of heart failure.[8] His agent, John Seine, said Farrell had complained of breathing problems and of a heavier pain in his chest than ever after performing with his band the prior evening.[9][10] Despite his still present dynamism, he had had health problems for a decade. Farrell's body was discovered by hotel staff after he failed to respond to an alarm call.[11] Coincidentally, he died on the same date and in the same city as Grigori Rasputin, the subject of one of his group's most iconic songs and whom he had dressed as in some live performances.[12][13] He was buried at Zorgvlied cemetery in Amsterdam.
They have an amazing Christmas album you need to check out
If you want the real feel.... catch the Medley Boney M made of Nightflight to Venus/Rasputin from the Nightflight to Venus Album.
He was very ill doing this video. He died shortly after. I love this song so much!
The male singer died a few years ago his name was Bobby Farrell
My parents' still have that album on 45... in the package. in pristine condition!! hahahaha.
One crazy cat & three killer women. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 No. 1. Acca Dacca, No. 2. Boney M...
Frank Farian - them same guy that put together Milli Vanilli
He was the human 8-ball
So apparently Bony M is the name of the group and his name is Bobby Farrell and he died in 2010
Check our their songs "ma Baker" or "Sunny". I love Boney M.
fyi: the producer, frank farian, the male voice of bony m, also created milli vanilli, if you remember there was this big scandal with playback and just dancers as frontman... see a pattern there? :D
Mum we're away too start a band, ok..take your brother...😅
Rasputin was - What is Rasputin most famous for?
Grigori Rasputin - Wikipedia
He is best known for having befriended the imperial family of Nicholas II, the last Emperor of Russia, through whom he gained considerable influence in the final years of the Russian Empire. .......
true story
What it is is some people dancing on stage, while the audio is made by a German white producer and singer: Frank Fahrian.
You are so funny guy, I subscribe!!!
OH MYLANTA!!! Xmas isn't Xmas without Bony M Xmas album getting played at least once a week.
PS - The Moment when Krizz realizes the end of the song was LITERALLY about how he was killed in real life and just went stone faced ... Priceless!!!
Boney M was a "fake" group (like Milli Vanilli). There songs were excellent. Their Christmas album is one of the best out there.
Drink every time he says ronnie😂
Rasputin, historically was a Monk / Priest / Con Artist that ended up seducing a Russian Princess (and many others) before (like the song alludes) being Poisoned, Shot, Stabbed, Drowned, Hung (and probably more, the Fucker wouldn't die).
His... Twig and Berries are on display in some Russian Museum.
bro just gave up and decided his name is Ronny
He is black P's doppelganger but with hair lol
The real Rasputin was assisinated on 30 Dec 1916.
I am a Zeitzeuge und die Buxen sahen so aus.
"What drugs was he on?" "Yes"
Those ladies are not background singers...they are the group
Dang bro. You reacted to the first Milli Vanilli? They weren't even a real band 😂😂
Same producer ;-)
React to daddy cool lol
He was flaunting the Mc Hammer pants long before Mc Hammer wore them
Check out Copacabana, a live by Barry Manilow - that’s one joyful song you want to dance to, which is also about death
As much as I love this song I think you would truly get a kick out of Aurora's cover of it, there's a great live version of it here on the youtubes!
