Babe

Artiestinformatie

Land	Nederland

Een Nederlands pop trio dat werd samengesteld door Peter Koelewijn in 1979. De groep bestond uit Gemma van Eck, Monique Hagemeijer en Rita Van Rooij. Hagemeijer werd in 1980 vervangen door Margot van der Ven en in 1981 kwam Marga Bult om de plaats in te nemen van Van Eck.

Het trio had verschillende hits waaronder Please Me, Please Do, The Kiss en Dolly The Doll. Opvallend is dat ze met de 14 hits die zij scoorden in de Nederlandse Top 40 nooit de Top 10 wisten te bereiken.

In 1986 werd de groep opgeheven.

Songtekst

Seven year old kids, raised in the Beatles time
Jacks full of hits, like "love me do"
The leader of the boys, was the special friend of mine
Tommy is a winner

Tommy, Tommy, and you always said to me
Tommy, Tommy, where you are I wanna be
But look at me now
Oh, oh, Tommy, dobedo
Oh, oh, Tommy, dobedo
Oh, oh, Tommy, dobedo
Tommy is a winner

Eighteen year old kids, no Beatles songs on the jack
Years ago they split, then Tommy said to me
I have to go I get, a big chance but I'll come back
Tommy is a winner

Tommy, Tommy, and you always said to me
Tommy, Tommy, where you are I wanna be
But look at me now
Oh, oh, Tommy, dobedo
Oh, oh, Tommy, dobedo
Oh, oh, Tommy, dobedo
Tommy is a winner

The first years I got his letters
Precisely twice a week
He wrote: I miss you, I love you
I always do
But later I got his letters
Only once a week
And now it stopped, I guess
He found someone new
Oh I lost you, Tommy !

Tommy, Tommy, and you always said to me
Tommy, Tommy, where you are I wanna be
But look at me now
Oh, oh, Tommy, dobedo
Oh, oh, Tommy, dobedo
Oh, oh, Tommy, dobedo
Tommy is a winner
