Subject: Please can anyone help me w/a name of a song?

Written By: Jennix77 on 02/24/06 at 7:07 pm

:D I have been trying to put an 80's songlist together but there is one song out there I just can't place. I heard it all the time in this little bar in Columbus, OH called Maxwell's (no longer exists) but I think it's in German or French or some language. It's very poppy and very fun to dance too...and it's not a very long song. Does anyone have any idea what I'm talking about? Or if you guys can just throw out who you might think it is? Thanks!

...or Rock Me Amadeus, also by Falco?


I forgot about that one.  That one did have German lyrics

Perhaps it was "Doot Doot" by Freur? Now that I think about, it's not an *especially* danceable tune, but what do I know?

yeah...i tried those but they were not it. I really can't place it. I don't think it was a very popular song. All I can remember was that it was short and the lyics were fast. If you can think of anything else please let me know. Im driving myself crazy!!!

Perhaps it was Ca Plane Pour Moi? by Plastic Bertrand?  It was a hit in 1978, but it's often thought of as an 80's song :)

That's it...you found it...i am forever grateful...and no wonder i couldn't find it, i was looking in the wrong place!
Even though it's not 80's,  it's a fun song and it brings back a lot of good memories! THANK YOU!!!  :D
