"Booyah (Here We Go)" is a song by German-based music project Sweetbox, with Kimberley Kearney, also known as Tempest as the frontwoman. A Euro house track, it was released as their debut single in 1995 by Maad and Airplay Records. It created initial success for Sweetbox in Germany, where it peaked at number eight, and in France, where it reached number 15. Two of its remixes can also be found on the 2006 compilation album Best of 12" Collection. The accompanying music video for the song was directed by Horst Czenskowski.[1]

Critical reception

Andrew Diprose from Smash Hits gave the song three out of five, writing, "With a title like 'Booyah (Here We Go)' you could be forgiven for expecting a Bad Boy "ragga" choon but you can stop thinking that right away! 'Here We Go' is a big ol' Euro stomper with an old skool rap."[2]
