"Nessaja" is a song written by Peter Maffay and Rolf Zuckowski from the musical Tabaluga released in 1983 on the album Tabaluga oder die Reise zur Vernunft. The German band Scooter released a techno version as single on 8 April 2002. It features as a bonus track on the group's first live album Encore: Live And Direct, and was the first Scooter single to feature newest member at that time Jay Frog. "Nessaja" is one of Scooter's best-known singles, reaching number one in Germany and number four in the UK.
The music video for Nessaja opens with a limousine pulling up outside a large white mansion. Women in dresses and men in suits get out of the car and go inside the house. There are lots of people waiting for a 'show' to start behind a red curtain. When the music starts, H.P. Baxxter comes out from behind the curtain and starts rapping. The people start dancing and then there are some shots of women dressed in underwear and rabbit ears in the same room (although it is empty). The video comes back to Scooter for a while, then cuts back to the two women, who are now totally naked. The women are later seen in bathtubs, again naked. The rest of the video shows H.P. Baxxter rapping and people dancing and partying. At the end of the video there is confetti on the floor and everyone is asleep (apart from Scooter), Scooter then leave in a limousine.

Zki & Dobre, known by many aliases, but currently most well known as Chocolate Puma (alternatively as The Good Men and as The Goodmen), are a Dutch house music duo from Haarlem, Netherlands. They comprise Gaston Steenkist ("Dobre") and René ter Horst ("DJ Zki"). They have produced multiple dance hits under various group names since the early 1990s. Their biggest international hits remains "Give It Up in 1993 credited as The Good Men and "Who Do You Love Now?" in 2001 credited to Riva featuring Dannii Minogue. They also founded their own record label Pssst Music.
As the Goodmen, their biggest hit was "Give It Up", a 1993 house music track based upon samba styled percussion and the simple, repeating vocal line of the song title. The percussion for the release was inspired by an earlier recording by Sérgio Mendes.
The song hit #1 on the US Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart in 1993 and made a brief appearance on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart, peaking at #71. After being re-released in late 1993, it reached #5 in the UK Singles Chart.
Riva was a pop rock band from Zadar, Croatia, then Yugoslavia, in the late 1980s.
After forming in 1986, the band appeared on Zagrebfest 1988. Their song "Rock Me" won the Eurovision Song Contest 1989 in Switzerland, with a score of 137 points. According to author John Kennedy O'Connor in The Eurovision Song Contest – The Official History it was an unexpected win. The band proved sceptics wrong bringing the first and only victory for Yugoslavia. The contest was organised in Zagreb in 1990. The group members parted ways in 1991.
