}} "Ooh Aah... Just a Little Bit" is a song written by British songwriters Simon Tauber and Steve Rodway, and performed by Australian singer Gina G. Released as a single on 25 March 1996, it reached number one on the UK Singles Chart almost two months later. ==Background== The song was the United Kingdom's entry in the 1996 Eurovision Song Contest. BBC producer Jonathan King hoped to revive interest for the contest domestically and rejuvenate the international competition.〔http://www.andtheconductoris.eu/index.htm?http://www.eurovisionartists.nl/conductor/dir020.asp?ID=80〕 The song finished in eighth place in the contest and was very successful on the charts in Europe. The song initially entered the UK singles chart at #6 on Sunday 31st March and two weeks later climbed to #2. The song spent another five weeks in the top 3, climbing to #1 (in its 8th week) the day after Gina's performance at Eurovision and would spend a further 15 weeks in the top 75. As of 2015, the song was still the last Eurovision entry of the United Kingdom to peak at the top of the country's chart. The song was also successful in the United States, a rarity for Eurovision entries, peaking at #12 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100, #13 on the Rhythmic Top 40, #5 on the Mainstream Top 40, #25 on the Adult Top 40, #4 on the Hot Dance/Club Play Songs, and #11 on the Hot Dance Music/Maxi-Singles Sales chart. It is the fourth most successful Eurovision entry in the US charts behind "Love Is Blue" (1968), "Waterloo" (1974) and "Eres tú" (1974). Such was the song's success in the United States that in 1997, the song was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording for the following year's ceremony. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ooh Aah...
