Oh baby - Münchener Freiheit

According to Wikipedia, 'Oh baby' was the first single by Münchener Freiheit, released in 1984. In reality it was actually their fourth single, taken from their second album Licht, released in 1983. The single is notable for its slightly primitive pop sensibility; the track isn't as polished as their later work. 

'Oh baby' was, however, the first hit the band had. It reached number 23 in Germany in the year before 'Ohne dich (schlaf ich heut Nacht nicht ein', which became number 2 and a charttopper in Austria and Switzerland. Good things were ahead for the band, but how were they to know?
