The original and only lead singer of Boney M. was born in Jamaica and moved to London at the age of eleven.She always wanted to be a professional singer and with her mother's belief and support she finally got luck; when working as a secretary an agent called and offered her a leading role in the musical Hair. Liz accepted and moved to Berlin where she stayed for three years. After this, she began working towards her original goal to be involved in the music business.Whilst in London doing a recording session Liz was asked to join a new band, Boney M. This role launched her international singing career and the rest is history.The biography of Boney M's hits is extensive. The group had eight Number One hits in the European charts with the following singles: Daddy cool, Sunny, Ma Baker, Belfast, Rivers of Babylon, Brown Girl in the Ring, Rasputin, Mary's Boy child. In addition to the successes of Boney M's singles was the success of three Number One albums in the European market: Take the Heat off Me, Nightflight to Venus, Love for Sale.We are now in the 21st Century and there is obviously no doubt that songs from the past are far more popular than ever before.
