Boney M was soooo popular in Sweden during 1975-1980 (about) The man behind Boney M is a german songwriter/producer named Frank Farian, he would later create the group Milli Vanilli. Of the 4 members only 2 did infact sing and the other 2 did miming (Frank F..did the male voice on the recordings of Boney M)

We were at some party and I was listening the music 🎶 and the music was changing from Boney M to Bee Gees and all the young people went crazy and suddenly she pulled me in and……… my foots were frozen 🥶 and I started to sweat a lot. But I never could change those times when everything was in the air. When you can experience the first kisses 😘 in your early youth. The 70’s and 80’s were the purest decades.

Boney M had a whole bunch of very catchy songs, and nearly all of them made you wanna move and groove ! .. Love the clear, pure vocals of the lead female singer, Liz Mitchell .. And BTW, Sue No.2 was referring to a dance called "The Slosh" ( not The Slush ) .. It was a popular line dance from Britain that had lots of funny actions in it. ( I've done it !😅) .. There's videos on YT showing it.

Haha ok I have to check this out! Slosh makes more sense than slush. Slush sounds like a drink lol. Ok, I am going to look right now to see what this looks like. Thanks Wayne 😁❤

A great song. A big seller in the UK. When the single started to slide down the chart, the record company flipped it for the other side, Brown Girl In The Ring. The record then climbed the chart again & reached number 2.
