    They had a lot of hits in the seventies (and early 80s). Apart from Rivers of Babylon: Daddy Cool, Ma Baker, Rasputin, Sunny, Brown girl in the ring, etc. etc.... Great reaction 😊

    Hi. This awesome song was a moderate hit in the U.S. in 1978. It was a huge hit in the UK and Australia. Check out their Christmas hit, "MARY'S BOY CHILD/OH MY LORD" which came out in December of 1978.

      I've known this song my whole life but only found out not long ago that it was a cover. They did an amazing job covering it and making it their own. The original is also super beautiful and worth reacting to¸.

      @@Lifewithstan2020 not really a cover but based on it too much. The Melodiens had the first rework of the psalms so it wasn't a tradditional song anymore.

    I love this song. I was 25 or 26 when it came out. It's based on Psalm 137, a lament Psalm written during the Babylonian exile.
    Verses 1 - 4
    By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion.
    We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof.
    For there they that carried us away captive required of us a song; and they that wasted us required of us mirth, saying, Sing us one of the songs of Zion.
    How shall we sing the Lord's song in a strange land?
    This last verse is pretty creepy. The whole Psalm is only 9 verses in length.
    Verse 9
    Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.
    Yikes
    I read that the male singer is only lip syncing.

      Oh Happy Day by the Edwin Hawkins Singers and Operator (Get me Jesus on the Line) by Manhattan Transfer are two more songs from that era that have religious themes. The latter is a cover. Carry on, Young Skywalker. You do good work.

      yes, didn't sing on recordings but was still called The Boney M. singer. He sang on stage a little and better said spoked the male words so he was in fact singer.
