Although they never had much success in America, the
Euro-Disco group Boney M was a European phenomenon during
the '70s. After German record producer Frank Farian (*
18.7.1941 as Franz Reuther) recorded the single 'Baby Do
You Wanna Bump?' in 1974/75 (which was successful in
Holland and Belgium), he created Boney M to support the
song, bringing in four West Indian vocalists who had been
working as session singers in Germany -- Marcia Barrett,
Liz Mitchell, Maizie Williams and Bobby Farrell.
Now let's take a look how this whole Boney M story started:
December 1974: Frank Farian 6 Weeks in Europa-Sound Studio
in Offenbach Bieber. Recording: "Baby Do You Wanna Bump"
under pseudonym "Boney M" (Boney: Hero of an Australian
TV-Series). At first only Discotheque-Success More...

You are all wonderful, frank, man I get a full set the quality to think like you ... and maizie in 2005 in Istanbul with you to balance the bar in concert socks in the hotel door to meet me with your development, you still spell i am in .. you your size and your chance to create a modest with all the fans or this I always tell the group know if you the same time you have seen if I were in your time. Come on Germany! world-quality products are waiting for you again.

------ About artist/band Boney M.
I grew up in Germany. My mother listened to them when I was a tiny tot and now I as an adult I still enjoy listening to them. Is it true that one of more members now live in Atlanta? I have turned several individuals on on Boney M's music and they all special-ordered CD's. They are timeless and I love they way their voices sound together. Wouldn't mind meeting them and just talk about their days in Europe. They were big time there. I don't think the US had an appreciation for them. Well, I'd say their loss, right? Love you guys.
I always enjoyed to listen some of your songs repeatedly along with my six year old daughter.
She is very found of Daddy Cool and Rivers of Babylon.
My personal favourite is Rivers of Babylon, Daddy Cool, Sunny, Ma Baker, Malaika, Consuela Biaz(this songs always shows me a better tomorrow), Sad Movies, African Moon, We Kill the World (don't Kill the World) or what should i say - all the songs from the album "Boonoonoonoos".
This is a beautiful song. I wish it would get re-released by Boney M. Others have covered it but no one so beautifully as the original. I wanted it played at church but no one in the band had heard of it and told me I would have to bring the music in. Unfortunately, that is apparently not available in the USA. What a loss to not be able to share it with others.
the greatest group i have known in my life. | Reviewer: kaganda
------ About artist/band Boney M.
i will always love their songs especially jimmy, bahama and others. this grow was and is still my favorite, i wish i could meet one of them. i am in Africa-Uganda but i smile when ever i listen to one of their songs.
i love that group and will die loving them.
I have been listening to Boney M since I was a child when I hardly could understand and speak English language - You know, there is something about Boney M that you cannot deny you hear it and you embrance it forever. It seeps into your mind...rightly said, music is a universal language. Just imagine I was a kid and I knew nothing about music and as soon as I started listening to these wonderful tracks I fell in love with it...very soulful, very soothing and I am 100% sure nobody could produce anything even closer to Boney M songs. My favs are Daddy Cool, Ma Baker, Take the heat of me, Brown girl in the Ring, Sunny, By the Rivers of Babylon, Hurray...and what not! That's why as my title goes "NOTHING LIKE BONEY M." Syed Mahmood.
This song is one of my all time favourites, I love the music but above all, I love the lyrics, this world should be other if more people reflect on the great message on it... what more to say ... I just loved this great song on the past, I love it now and I will love it for ever !!! Thanks Boney M !!

------ About the song Brown Girl In The Ring performed by Boney M.
it may be an old song but this song absolutely rocks. no matter how old it is, it still rocks any party and gets everyone dancing. whenever we have a party we have to bump this track. keep it rocking boney m!
The music of Boney M is classic, and it is evergreen, I don't think any other work can beat them in the game either now or the future.my choicest among the songs are :I see a boat on the river, By the rivers of Babylon,hooray!hooray!hali-holiday,brown girl in the ring,etc.
My heart goes out to LIZ MITCHEL for her voice training,

------ About artist/band Boney M.

i adore the music they can produce
i love some songs like bahama mama, rasputin , daddy cool , ma baker..
i used to listen the songs of boney m since i was 6 years old before even start learning the english language..:)
Hi all! I am a 15 years old boy. I love this song, cause.. this shows, what should we do with the World, and what shouldn't.. Unfortunately the big parts of the pepople don't interesting in this topic, and they are happy, if they can destroy the world. I can't understand them. They will kill the world, kill themselves, and kill us. And that time won't be anything, what is nowadays on of the most important things..
I am sorry to bad grammar, but i just learn English.. this is not my mother tongue.
Closest and Best lyrics i have found | Reviewer: kenyan
------ About the song Malaika performed by Boney M.
yes that's right. in the first verse just change whatever is in "ee" to "wee" (this way it makes sense since it will mean "you"; the "ee" don't mean nothing)
other than that i find the lyrics acurate. i know somebody will fault this but this is the best u r gonna get.
last i remember when i grew up in kenya this song was so popular there (next to the national anthem) that it rivaled the latter; everybody knew the song by heart
Correct Lyrics and translation | Reviewer: Sujay
------ About the song Malaika performed by Boney M.
I tend to agree with reviewer Videl, the lyrics are either wrongly spelt or wrongly written...Just did a translation of a few lines(using online swahili-english dictionary) and it just doesnt make sense. Would someone pls put in the correct lyrics? And the translation too...Finally Review Malaika, (i thnk u r Indian) and u wud be happy to know tht Malaika in Swahili means Angel
Trying to find the lyrics to "Hold on I'm comming" by Isaac Hayes & David Porter on the sound track of "We were soldiers", sang by Tommy Blaze. The lyrics are not the same, can you help me? Thanks for your time and efforts.Dave
