Hi, Â I actually have the 7" single of the Morrocan song (Leili Twil by Younes Megri). In addition to collecting Boney M., I also collect any original...

There was a another song called Daddy Cool in 1957 by the Rays which was covered by Darts in 1976 but I'm not aware of an earlier version of Boney M.s' Daddy...
... Looks like Mr. Farian wasn't bold enough to credit the song to himself at this early stage and used the "Zambi" alias... The '89 remix of "Bump" starts...
I read from the "Boonoonoonoos" remaster booklet that "Breakaway" is a cover of a Tommy Jones track. I found an mp3 of "Breakaway" by Tommy James & the...

On the other hand.... Kelvin James must have been happy that Farian took his song to make it a Boney M. track... Being a Boney M. track means that it sold much...

I agree with Casper that Kelvin James may not have liked the way Farian treated Marcia but he must have earned quite well from having "Breakaway" on ...
Hi All! I have to say that 'Breakaway' is one of my favourite all-time Boney M. tracks. I would dearly love to hear the version of the song if it is recorded...
And a very interesting two pence too Soren! Naivity on the parts of the members of Boney M. is without doubt. Each of them in their own way have been mislead...
