Boobs was a Danish 80's pop quartet from Aalborg, formed in 1981. Had minor hits with pop-rock versions of 30's vaudeville classics.

Back in 1981, Mikael K formed the band Boobs together with three schoolmates - Henrik From Hansen, Michael Back and Hans-Jørgen Jensen. They formed Boobs together in the lush music environment around Thulevejens Ungdomsklub in Aalborg. The group became a good local name and inspired other amateur groups in North Jutland. In June 1983, they won a 'Battle Of The Bands' in Valencia in Copenhagen and qualified for the Scandinavian final at Gröna Lund in Stockholm. The band became nationally known when they got to play the song Åh Hvor Jeg, Ih Hvor Jeg, Uh hvor jeg vil! on TV in the popular Danish music TV show Eldorado on New Year's Eve 1984. (Danish Rock Lexicon 2002/Politikens Håndbøger p. 261)
The group played at the 12th World Youth Festival in Moscow in 1985. In the song 'Einar (Cirkusdirektøren)' from Mikael K & Klondyke's album Sange fra Nord (2014), Mikael K sings about the experience at the opening ceremony at the Olympic Stadium, where the Danish circus clown Einar Trie walks on stilts in front of President Gorbachev. Boobs also performed at Roskilde Festival the same year.
