C'mon let's boogie - Kirka

As it says in Wikipedia: 'Kirill "Kirka" Babitzin (22 September 1950 – 31 January 2007) was a musician from Finland, but now he's dead'. It's a bit harsh, but it is the truth. There's more to the story than that of course, but there you go.

Kirka represented Finland in Eurovision Song Contest 1984 with the song 'Hengaillaan' (which is Finnish for 'hanging out'). The song finished ninth in a field of 19 competitors. This single features an English language version of the song, entitled 'C'mon let's boogie'.
