Answer
Dear Alexs,

That song would be HUBBA HUBBA ZOOT-ZOOT by CARAMBA. CARAMBA was a Swedish music group. It released one self-titled album in 1981. The album is chiefly notable because it is recorded entirely in non-existent language. It was produced by TED GARDESTAD and MICHAEL B. TRETOW, who is most famous for producing ABBA's records.

The artists of Caramba all used pseudonyms. This is how they were credited on the album sleeve:

CARLO IH LURA, ZOLTAN ZULL, DR. FRITZ HöFNER, TUDOR LUDOR, ABDULLAH PRESLEY, ZINGO ALLAH, IHTO AMIN, GASTON EL TON YON, KING NAM, CLAPTON COMBO, KING KONG, HAZZE KINIKAZE and GIORGIO MARTINI. Here's its lyrics:

Expertise

I can answer just about everything from the 80`s, rock, pop, trivias, artist infos, Billboard chart positions, albums, etc. But songs that became hit in the Philippines and OPM songs are my expertise. I grew on 80`s music and still listening to 80`s music as it is the best era in music history for me. My friends call me the walking encyclopedia of 80`s music. I got books & collections of CDs, all from the 80`s.

Experience

Let's just say music is my life and my source is a lifetime of knowledge about 80's music and then some.
