Answer
Dear Jamie,

This is the second time I was asked about this group. You can refer to an August 8, 2006 question from Sharon titled I NEED ARTIST AND SONG PLEEEEEEASSSSE. Anyway, FANTASTIQUE is a "computerdisco" duo from Haarlem, Netherlands made up of DICK DAS and ASTRID LEUWERINGEN. Their song MAMA TOLD ME came from 1981 and was a big hit in Europe, especially in Holland. For a more detailed info on the group, bookmark this link:

And here's their hit MAMA TOLD ME:

MAMA TOLD ME / FANTASTIQUE

He wanna dance, wanna dance
Dance, he wanna do the dance

Ah, shake it
Everybody hit the floor

He wanna dance, wanna dance

My mama, she told me
My mama, mama told me
Ah, come on baby, dance with me
Don't you feel alright
Let's do it, let's do it

Maybe you forget it now
But I want your body to the ground
Do you really want some more?
Come on everybody, hit the floor

He wanna dance, wanna dance
Dance, he wanna do the dance

My mama, mama told me
Ah, come on baby, dance with me
Don't you feel alright
Let's do it, let's do it
Let's do it together
