It contains 20 songs interpreted by Gummibär, including "I'm a Gummy Bear", by far the group's most well known song.

Background

[edit]

The character of Gummibär released their first album "Itt Van A Gumimaci" in 2006.[4] The album had seven songs along with two remixes and two karaoke versions. Next year, an album titled "Funny Music" was released, including the previous seven songs alongside new ones.[5] All songs from both albums will later appear on this album, with the exception of the track "L'ecole est finie". The song "I'm a Scatman", got reworked for "Funny Music" and is the version that appears in "I Am Your Gummy Bear".

Three singles were released for the album. The lead single "I'm a Gummy Bear (The Gummy Bear Song)" was released on June 10, 2007, in Hungary, where it spent eight months as number one atop the ringtones chart.[6] The second single "Cho Ka Ka O" was released on October 10, 2007,[7] while the third single "Itsi Bitsi Petit Bikini" was released on March 17, 2008.[8]
