Hi, I'm looking for a song, I dunno the artist, I just know it's called How Do You Do and I remember the lyrics. It's a romantic dance Euro new wave-type from 1984, that's usually played on repeats of a show called 80's Experience with Jan B. The problem is the dj had such a thick accent when he mentioned the artist, that I can't understand what he said.
I think he said Bakkyu or Fakkyu or Spakkyu????? Please help. :(

Anyway, here are the lyrics:

How do you do, is it really you?
How do you do?
Won't you come inside
Let's talk it over
What was wrong, what was right

I'm gonna break my heart to let you know
Gonna break my heart to let you know
Hello, I welcome you

So how do you do?
Can I get through to you?
How do you do
Won't you come inside
No reasons anymore
No reasons to hide



the lyrics basically repeat themselves throughout the song. Oh and I think that Jan B said the artist is from Belgium, if that helps. :wink:
I hope you can help me with this one, much thanks would be greatly appreciated. :mrgreen:

Oh thank you thank you! Finally! :mrgreen:

You've made my day, that's for sure. :D

I just love that darn song, but I had no clue who sang it, and that Jan B had such a strange accent that I couldn't understand, but thanks to you now I know. XD

Hmm now off to YouTube to find out more about this artist. ;)

Wow, barely any info on this artist, but I did manage to find the cover art, so this single must be extremely rare. :o

Oh, and correction: he's not Belgian but Danish, lol :oops:
