The group was created by producer Frank Farian in 1975 and was composed of four West Indian artists working in London, Germany and the Netherlands: singers Marcia Barrett and Liz Mitchell, model Maizie Williams and DJ Bobby Farrell. Boney M is noted for the mix of white and black musicâ€”the producer Farian is white and the singers are black; significantly many songs are black (freedom) songs, for example "No More Chain Gang" in the album Oceans Of Fantasy. Farian first released the single "Baby Do You Wanna Bump?" in 1975, under the name Boney M. He performed the sparse vocals of the song himself. The song went on to become a hit and it was then that Farian decided to hire a team of dancers and vocalists to 'front' the group.

Boonoonoonoos Lyrics

Boney M.

Boonoonoonoos give me boonoonoonoos
Boonoonoonoos little bit boonoonoonoos
Let me tell you of a feeling
That is spreading to the land
It will give you good vibrations
It will help you understand
Boonoonoonoos thats boonoonoonoos
It will help you love your neighbour
It will turn you to the light
It will make you come out jammin
From the morning till the night
Boonoonoonoos thats boonoonoonoos
Boonoonoonoos give me boonoonoonoos
Boonoonoonoos little bit boonoonoonoos
Everywhere the sun is shining
Theres a sweetness in the air
Can you feel a new day rising
On the people evrywhere
Boonoonoonoos thats boonoonoonoos
We can split a tiny atom
We can walk upon the moon
Its been too long coming on us
Gonna hear about it soon
Boonoonoonoos thats boonoonoonoos
Boonoonoonoos give me boonoonoonoos
Boonoonoonoos little bit boonoonoonoos
Boonoonoonoos give me boonoonoonoos
Boonoonoonoos little bit boonoonoonoos
