1) Arabesque was a famous German disco music group formed in 1977, consisting of Sandra Cretu (joined the group in 1979), Jasmin Vetter, and Michaela Rose. After a split in 1984 Jasmin Vetter and Michaela Rose continued as the group "Rouge", while Sandra Cretu started her career in the group Sandra with Michael Cretu.
Arabesque was popular in Japan, selling more than 6 million albums there. They also had success in the USSR. In 1980 the single "Take Me Don't Break Me" became a hit, which only scraped the German Top 40. Their next single, "Marigot Bay", would become their single Top Ten hit a few weeks later. Their last singles "Ecstasy" and "Time to Say Goodbye", turned hits after their split, on various central, south and east European countries, because they sounded very close to the "Italo-disco" sound, a very popular music genre of the European Discotheques at that time. Those songs spread and gained success through LP compilations of dance/pop music and bootleg tapes, so the group never could take advantage of this success neither those songs turn on any kind of charts as "singles". That was a common problem for many '80s European artists. The last Arabesque singles introduced the "Italo-disco" sound to Japan, under the term "eurobeat", previously used in the UK for the Stock Aitken Waterman productions. That soon lead to Japan's Super Eurobeat music style.
On December 16, 2006 Arabesque (featuring Michaela Rose and two new members Sabine Kaemper and Silke Brauner) headlined the second Retro FM festival in Moscow.

Tall Story Teller
Arabesque Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That's how he got his name - big Ballyhoo.
It's very very boring
It's ev'ry day the same - big Ballyhoo.
Whatever he is saying
He is telling a lie
But he tells you why it's true.
He is a tall story teller
Became a millionaire
'cause he gave him the tips
And he taught him the tricks.
He is a tall story teller -
Why do I love this feller?
I really don't low why
But I know it's true
That he loves me too
And that is not a lie.
So we are goin' to marry
Because I love this man - big Ballyhoo.
I said you're very caring
But you must understand - big Ballyhoo.
Be sure if you ever gonna tell me a lie
I'm saying good bye to you.
He is a tall story teller
. . .
Ballyhoo Ballyhoo - yes I love him
Yes I do.
Ballyhoo Ballyhoo - and I know he loves me too.
He is a tall story teller

The song "Tall Story Teller" by Arabesque is about a man referred to as "big Ballyhoo," who is known for his constant lies and tall tales. Despite the fact that he tells lies, the singer admits that she loves him and that he loves her too. The lyrics depict the singer's mixed feelings of boredom and affection towards Ballyhoo, who she knows she could never trust completely. She is well aware that whatever he is saying is just a figment of his imagination, but she still finds his stories appealing and irresistible.
The song provides a commentary on the power of storytelling and how it can be used to manipulate and deceive people. Ballyhoo is depicted as a master storyteller who is able to spin tales that are so good that they make people believe in them, despite knowing that they are false. Yet, despite all of his lies, the singer still finds herself drawn to him and is willing to overlook his flaws because of her love for him.
Overall, the song is a cautionary tale about the dangers of falling for someone who is a master manipulator and liar. However, it also explores the complicated and conflicting emotions that people can feel when they find themselves drawn to someone who is clearly not good for them.
