"Bang Bang Lulu" was a 1986 single by disco band Boney M., taken from their final album Eye Dance, released October 1985. The single failed to chart, and the group - having disbanded after their 10th anniversary - didn't promote it. It was originally intended for Liz Mitchell to sing, but she found the lyrics vulgar and refused to do it, and Reggie Tsiboe did the lead vocals, backed by session singers Amy & Elaine Goff.

Bang Bang Lulu are also a band based in the UK that play Ska and Soul music. See Bang Bang Lulu

Famous quotes containing the word version:

    It is never the thing but the version of the thing:
    The fragrance of the woman not her self,
    Her self in her manner not the solid block,
    The day in its color not perpending time,
    Time in its weather, our most sovereign lord,
    The weather in words and words in sounds of sound.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
