Arabesque, not to be confused with Keith Girdler's side project, are a three-girl (Sandra Lauer, Jasmine Elizabeth, and Michaela Rose) group from West Germany. They've never released any music in the US, but they were quite popular in other countries, especially Japan and Russia, but their songs are all in English!
They've released about fifteen albums , the first was Arabesque (1978), ending with Time to say 'Good Bye' (1984).
We're going to listen to "Hello Mr. Monkey" which was a number one hit in Japan (did not chart in Germany).
If you listen to it, it's a little 70s feel to it and kind of reminds me of ABBA.
Who could resists these lyrics:
Hello, hello Mister Monkey
You're still so fast and funky
Hello, hello Mister Monkey
You should have been a clown
