Over one million copies have been sold and 500,000 ringtones have been downloaded. Even nightclubs are playing a disco remix version, with people crowding the dance floor singing the refrain “Schni-Schna-Schnappi”. Joy recorded the song when she was four years old and her parents posted it on the Internet as a joke. But when some German radio stations discovered the song, Joy became a pop star overnight.
“Schni-Schna-Schnappi” is the story of a baby crocodile who is teething on his father’s leg. The track was written by Joy’s aunt Iris Gruttmann, who has been writing children’s songs for 10 years. But Iris insists that it was Joy who thought of the tune and words for the song. “Schni-Schna-Schnappi” is a lovely children’s song,” says Iris Gruttmann. “Maybe that explains its success.”
Joy now has her own official website, where Schnappi baseball caps and T-shirts can be bought as well as the Schnappi CD, Schnappi video, Schnappi DVD and Schnappi video game. Joy is the youngest person in Europe to get to number one.
