Ottawan
Ottawan was a pop music duo, who scored the hit singles "D.I.S.C.O." and "Hands Up (Give Me Your Heart)" in the early 1980s. Fronted by Caribbean-born Jean Patrick Baptiste and Annette, they were masterminded by French producers Daniel Vangarde and Jean Kluger.
Career
In 1979 Ottawan was founded by French record producers Daniel Vangarde and Jean Kluger and fronted by male singer Jean Patrick Baptiste and female singer Annette. Kluger and Vangarde had also scored hits with The Gibson Brothers and Sheila B. Devotion.
In the United Kingdom they had two Top 10 hits. "D.I.S.C.O." (the act's debut single) reached number two in September 1980, while "Hands Up (Give Me Your Heart)" peaked at number three a year later. "Hands Up (Give Me Your Heart)" reached #1 in New Zealand during 1982, staying there for eight weeks. In France, their single "You're OK" (French title "T'es OK") is one of the Top 50 best-selling singles of all time. The duo recorded in French as well as English.
Patrick Baptiste left the group soon afterwards and attempted a come back under the new name Pam 'n Pat, to little success. Ottawan continued as an act with varying line-ups for many years afterwards.

Haut Les Mains
by: Ottawan{Refrain:}
Haut les mains, haut les mains, haut les mains
Donne-moi ton coeur,
Donne donne-moi ton coeur donne donne
Haut les mains, haut les mains, haut les mains
Donne-moi ton coeur, donne-moi donne-moi ton coeur
Donne donne donne-moi donne-moi
Je t'ai vue, je t'ai suivie, observée, analysée
J'en ai conclu que tu es l'amour de ma vie
J't'avais vu depuis longtemps
T'as pas compris en m'espionnant
Que toutes les nuits j'rêve de toi dans mon lit
{au Refrain}
Des yeux de lionne, un air fragile,
Un maximum de sex-appeal
Il est certain que tu vas faire mon bonheur
Embrasse-moi tout simplement
On a perdu tellement de temps
En jouant aux gendarmes et aux voleurs
{au Refrain}
Je serais ton Roméo, ton Superman
Ton super champion
J't'emmènerai voler vers les étoiles
Dans un drôle d'avion
Tu me plais, c'est fou c'que tu me plais
Il est certain que tu vas faire mon bonheur
