Cherona is a German-Ukrainian Europop group that was formed by the TV station Super RTL. The first single, "Ching Chang Chong" was released on 1 January 2009, and peaked at #15 in the German Top 100. Their follow-up song "Rigga-Ding-Dong-Song", originally by the group Passion Fruit, was also a hit. Both appear in the band's 2009 album Sound of Cherona.
