This guy had Hammer pants before there were even Hammer pants ! I remember this was a hit when I was a kid back in 1980 for me. A Carribean member band formed back in Germany . The guy has so much energy that I was exhausted just watching this guy back then and even now . A massive world wide hit back then except in the US . The guy has passed away now unfortunately .

BTW: The song was hugely popular in the former USSR. Except that it's last line (not played in Sopot) was banned.

Showing my age, but the first 45 I ever bought with my own money. 🕺🏼

[@colinstevens2691]

Check out Daddy Cool , it’s my favourite song by Boney M. Another absolute banger 😊

[@oopsdidItypethatoutloud]

This song has always been one to get the people on their feet You say the name right

[@Danceofmasks]

Russia's greatest love machine was based on a true story. ... As in, they still have Rasputin's **** in a museum. Never mind the rest of him, just his ****.

[@AngelDReacts]

This can't be true! LOL! What the heck?!

Yes the mueseum of erotica, but there's no evidence it was his or is what's claimed, two others were debunked, one was a sea cucumber and the other being from a bull.

[@Sailor_91]

Bony m himself did not go on stage. The man on stage did not sing. He was just a dancer hwo was mimiking/ using playback.

[@AngelDReacts]

Oh wow, really?! How come, I wonder? That is so interesting, thank you xo

[@Sailor_91]

@@AngelDReacts just as "milli vanilli" was fake.

[@lroke2947]

Yup, the male voice was Frank Farian, the band's producer. A white German guy wouldn't really have fit in with the rest of the cast on stage.

That's Russia greatest love machine. Digging the parachute pants. I'm not sure why I find this so entertaining. Angel, where do you find this stuff? If I get this song stuck in my head, it's all your fault. All I can say Angel is wow. I'd say wooo. But that's your line.

[@AngelDReacts]

Ha you can say woo.. i hereby grant permission lol

[@vakhv2493]

wow, really??? they were direct competitors of ABBA at the time! wildly popular everywhere in the world... except USA :)

[@TomTom-qm4mq]

​@@vakhv2493 Might be why I never heard of them. I'm in the U.S.

[@lroke2947]

@@vakhv2493 Indeed -- ABBA, Baccara and Boney M were like the holy trinity back in the day. Mid-1970's, FWIW. Wherever you went where they played music from a tape deck back then, it was a mix of these three or their LP's one after another.

[@vakhv2493]

I like it how Polish cameramen were showing everything buy the actual band members. Really lousy job :)

[@stevenclarke5606]

These guys were total fakes , they never sang on any records or performances , they were just a front for a German Producer, who used session musicians, so that he kept most of the money

[@gesundheit602]

The same producer that later did the same with Milli Vanilli..
