Ra-Ta-Ta (Chris Juwens song)

"Ra-Ta-Ta", or "Ra Ta-Ta-Ta" is a 1970 German song written by Hamburg pianist Chris Juwens (real name Uwe Stelzmann; 1946-1998) and Christian Heilburg (real name Gregor Rottschalk, 01/12/1945). Gunter Gabriel of CBS Records Germany heard the song's catchy potential right away, but his boss dissuaded him. Nevertheless, the song swept across Europe with singles in many other European languages. The first single release was the English version by German band Rotation in June 1970. In the US, it was promoted there as a result of the top 10 success of singer Antoine's French version in Paris.
