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.

I Need Your Love
DJ Bobo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Love, I need your love tonight
I need your love
Love, I wanna hold you tight
I need your love
Love, I'll do anything for you
Take my heart and I'll be yours
I want you back for good
Cool down and listen what I have to say
Begging you to hear me, I need you every day
I've learned my lesson I know it for sure
You're all I ever want, you're all I ever need
'Cause you once took my love
And it's like that ever since
You've turned my sences apart
A lonely queen without a prince
I'm trying to forgive you recapture my heart
Now it's up to you, I want to feel you
Another day is passing and pictures flash by
All I need is your love 'cause you make me fly
I got this feeling I just need a chance
To show you how I care, to show you what I feel
You've learned your lesson, now come back for good
So many things I've said you misunderstood
'Cause all that I feel girl, I feel it for you
You've got me wrapped around
your finger, now what you gonna do?
In DJ Bobo's song, "I Need Your Love," the singer is pleading for the love and affection of a former lover. The song's chorus repeats the phrase "I need your love" several times, emphasizing the singer's desperation for their former lover's affection. The lyrics suggest that the singer may have made mistakes in the past and is willing to do anything to win back their lover's heart. The line "take my heart and I'll be yours" implies that the singer is willing to give their all to the relationship if their lover will take them back.
The second verse shows the singer trying to reason with their former lover, asking them to "cool down and listen" to what they have to say. The singer seems to accept responsibility for past mistakes, claiming to have learned their lesson and acknowledging that their former lover is all they want and need. The rest of the song continues to plead for the former lover to come back, with the singer saying that they just need a chance to show their love and affection.
Overall, "I Need Your Love" is a song that captures the desperate and sometimes painful feeling of wanting someone who seems out of reach. The repetition of the phrase "I need your love" emphasizes the emotional power of this feeling and the lengths that some people will go to win back the affection of someone they love.
