One half of the disco duo Baccara who found fame with the 1977 hit Yes Sir, I Can Boogie
The mysterious power of pop music knows no bounds. After Scotland’s footballers beat Serbia in a penalty shoot-out in November 2020, thus qualifying for Euro 2020, a video clip of the players celebrating by singing Baccara’s 1977 international disco hit Yes Sir, I Can Boogie went viral.
The fusion of European football and the Spanish disco duo even prompted some delirious Scottish remainers to see this as a symbolic step on Scotland’s road back to European Union membership.
