Malaika (Lambada remix) - Boney M

Collecting Boney M singles has become a very amusing pastime for me. The original singles from the Seventies are all in my collection, but in the second half of the Eighties an endless stream of remixes was apparently released on single. I have already found a couple of these (and you can see them on this blog here), but yet another one turned up.

This one is the 'Lambada remix' of 'Malaika'. It was not a very commercial song to begin with, and this remix doesn't help matters much. There isn't a lot of Lambada in this remix and the added beats don't get one on their dancing feet. Well, at least the B-side is more interesting: a Nineties remix of that song that started it all, 'Baby do you wanna bump'.

My collection: 7" single no. 5061
Found: Record fair, Utrecht, April 9, 2011
Cost: 1 euro
Tracks: 'Malaika (Lambada remix)' / 'Baby do you wanna bump (Remix for the 90's)'
