In 1979, the group got 5th place in the competition to represent Germany in the Eurovision Song Contest with "Lady, Lady, Lady". That year, they also had another hit with the song "Indian Reservation", a cover of the hit by Paul Revere & the Raiders. The following year, they had yet another hit with "Fire on the Water", by which time disco was dying out. Their final success came in 1981 with "O.T.T. (Over The Top)" after which the band broke up.

  • Az Orlando Riva Sound egy nyugatnémet diszkóegyüttes volt, melyet Anthony Monn és Rainer Pietsch hívtak életre. Az O. R. S. slágerei az 1976 és 1981 közötti évekből származnak, de az együttesnek sose sikerült az élvonalbeli sztárok közé kerülnie.
