This was a hit all over Europe and spent a record 20 weeks at #1 in Sweden. It wasn't released in the US as their record company there didn't like it.
Baccara was the first female duo to have a #1 hit in UK (this was the 414st UK #1) and the first Spanish act to reach the UK #1. Baccara were Spanish flamenco dancers Mayte Matee and Maria Mendilo, who were dancing flamenco and singing traditional songs for tourists on the island of Fuerteventura when RCA executive Leon Deane signed them up.
The lyrics were written and the backing track recorded the night before Baccara flew to Germany to record this. They sang 2 songs, including this one, then immediately flew back to Spain to record a TV show.
