As a dance music producer, his first big success came with the single Somebody Dance with Me, which is similar in sound to Rockwell's, "Somebody's Watching Me". The single hit number one in Switzerland. After this, he charted well with the singles Keep on Dancing and Take Control.
René has received numerous golds and platinums for his songs and has found success in Europe (primarily Germany and Switzerland) and South America. René's more recent songs are a departure from eurodance, but he still produces decent eurodance tracks such as Moscow (2001), No More Pain (2003), and Amazing Life (2005).
One of his singles, Chihuahua, was used in a Spanish Coca-Cola commercial. In 2003 it was re-released due to its huge success and it ended being the second best selling single of the year world wide. In December 2004, the Cantonese version of Chihuahua was written by Wyman Wong as the theme song of the same product. This version was performed by Joey Yung.
In 2004, as a result of the success of Chihuahua, René was awarded the Swiss award for Showbusiness at the Swiss awards, an annual event meant to recognise high achieving Swiss people.
As well as being a eurodance performer and producer, René is also a talented choreographic dancer.
During 1993 René met Nancy Rentzsch; she joined his team in 1995. René and Nancy became a couple and in 2002 they married and had two children, Jamiro Rene (born October 8, 2002) and Kayley Nancy (born September 29, 2006).
DJ Bobo’s became a United Nations World Food Programme National Ambassador Against Hunger in October 2006, becoming the first Swiss celebrity to take up the role. He was also a participant in the 2006 Geneva Walk the World event.
On October 11, 2006 DJ Bobo announced in a press conference that he has applied to represent Switzerland at the Eurovision Song Contest 2007 with his song "Vampires are alive".
UPDATE - Swiss broadcaster SF have announced that René Baumann (DJ BoBo), will represent the country at the 2007 Eurovision Song Contest. A jury made up of music professionals will select his song for Helsinki out of 60 potential entries.

DJ Bobo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Celebrate, wake up it's not a dream
Celebrate, this life is for free
Don't give up, stay alive
Let's celebrate
Don't give up, all your dreams come true
Let's celebrate
Can you see all this people walking through the streets of life
It's a dangerous world they are living in
Between imagination and expectations
On their way to the point of no return
They only live once and they have to learn
Your life is too brief to waste your time for hate
It's never too late to celebrate
Celebrate, every night and day
Celebrate, never run away
Celebrate, wake up it's not a dream
Celebrate, this life is for free
When you've got the key to reality
Let's celebrate
All the dreams come true just for me and you
Let's celebrate
Don't give up, stay alive
Let's celebrate
Don't give up, all your dreams come true
Let's celebrate
Reality, is what they're looking for
Love, is what they all adore
Feel like a bird in a cage
Covered by your curtain, flying into a rage
Reaching the point of no return let it burn, let it burn
They only live once and they have to learn
Your life is too brief to waste your time for hate
It's never too late to celebrate
Celebrate, every night and day
Celebrate, never run away
Celebrate, wake up it's not a dream
Celebrate, this life is for free
When you've got the key to reality
Let's celebrate
All the dreams come true just for me and you
Let's celebrate
Be yourself and you'll see
The best things in your life are free
Don't give up, stay alive
Honesty can make you survive
Celebrate, celebrate
Celebrate, every night and day
Celebrate, never run away
Celebrate, wake up it's not a dream
Celebrate, this life is for free
When you've got the key to reality
Let's celebrate
All the dreams come true just for me and you
Let's celebrate
