VideoKids

VideoKids were a 1980s Euro disco/Italo disco duo from The Netherlands, formed in 1984 and led by Peter Slaghuis, who died in a car accident in 1991, and Bianca Bonelli (born January 2, 1963 age 58), who also had a solo hit single called "Je veux l'amour". They released two albums, "The Invasion of the Spacepeckers" in 1984 and "On Satellite" in 1985. "The Invasion of the Spacepeckers" was released at the 1984 Midem music festival, and went on to sell 1.1 million copies.
In 1985, when the VideoKids refused to release their song "Woodpeckers from Space" in South Africa, due to the political situation in South Africa during that time, Costa Anadiotis decided to release his own unique version of the song under the banner of Café Society. "Woodpeckers from Space" was a number 1 hit in South Africa in July 1985, and stayed in the Top 20 for 19 weeks, of which 8 were at the number 1 position.
The same year, VideoKids received the Buma Export Award. All VideoKids songs were written by Adams and Fleisner and Tony Acardi.
"Woodpeckers from Space" was remixed by Norwegian dance group Spritneybears in 2002 and by Evelyn in 2012.
