Never critically acclaimed, the group continued making records that were distinctly "Eurodance", following in the footsteps of previous Dutch-Dance sensations 2 Unlimited. The ploy worked and by the beginning of the year 2000, the group had achieved 4 top 10 entries, including 2 number ones (Boom Boom Boom Boom and We're Going to Ibiza). The group's success continued throughout the beginning of the 21st century, with the "Platinum Album" (their third album release) going top 10, spawning 3 big hits (Kiss, Shala Lala and Uncle John From Jamaica) and 2 lesser known tracks (Cheekah Bow-Bow, which included their fifth cyber-member Cheekah, and the ballad Forever As One, which gained more notoriety for its video, which was banned after the group used unlicensed pictures of them meeting pop group Westlife). By mid-2001, after nearly 10 top 10 hits, the group partly disbanded and went back to working on the club scene.

Vengaboys Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Gonna pick you up tonight at one.
A private Vengaparty that is gonna last the whole night long
Party till the cops show up, 'cause then we gotta run.
We don't care what the people say,
Nothing's gonna stop us gonna do it anyway.
Tonight's the night let us show you how
Hey what you waiting for... get in the water now!!!!
Listen up tonight it's on
Take your clothes off
Skinnydippin' all night long
That's what we love
come along let's have some fun
Take your clothes off
skinnydippin' all night long
Get in the water now!
Take your clothes off!
Get in the water now!
That's what we love!
(Verse)
(Bridge)
(Chorus)
The Vengaboys song "Skinnydippin" is an upbeat, party anthem about an invitation to a private Vengaparty where the guests are encouraged to take their clothes off and go skinny-dipping all night long. The song suggests a wild night of partying with friends and not caring about what others might say or think. The lyrics "Party till the cops show up, 'cause then we gotta run" suggest an element of rebellion, and the chorus encourages listeners to "get in the water now!" and join in on the fun.
The song's title and lyrics reference the act of skinny-dipping, which is swimming naked. It's a popular activity among young people, and it's often seen as a symbol of liberation and freedom. The song's upbeat tempo and catchy melody make it a popular choice for parties and club environments.
