Von Bullerbü nach Babylon
Encyclopedia
Von Bullerbü nach Babylon ("from Bullerbü to Babylon") is the second album of the German
pop duo Foyer des Arts
. The title is derived from Bullerbü, the German name for the village in The Six Bullerby Children
).
Foyer des Arts was signed by WEA
after their 1981 local hit "Eine Königin mit Rädern untendran". The album spawned two more singles, "Wissenwertes über Erlangen" and "Trends / Hubschraubereinsatz". The former was Foyer des Arts' only hit, reaching number 36 in the Media Control Charts
.
Long out of print, the album was re-edited in 2003 with a slightly different track listing.
Side B :
The new edition omits Little girls, Familie und Beatmusic and Schön bunt in favor of Von Bullerbü nach Babylon (until then never issued), Comment and create (b-side from the first edition of Eine Königin... 7") and Einer von Theater / von Kriege (b-side from Wissenwertes... 7"). Eine Königin is an extended remix with a repetition of the middle section, and a slightly longer fade-out. The cover art
is also different.
