Fantastique was brought together by the producers team Cat Music in 1980. Dick van Dam and Astrid Leuwener were the faces of this duo, who scored their first hit in 1981 with 'Mama told me'. Not only did it reach number 27 in the Dutch Top 40, it also scored well elsewhere in Europe.The track is a typical nonsensical popsong, with not a lot of substance. Apparently, the track was re-released in remixed form many times after Fantastique drifted into oblivion and it remained a favourite in disotheques all through the Eighties.
