  • Crusin** Whittier Blvd in the early 80's great times...

  • love this version 

  • He knows who he is....I love you Pedro!!!!

  • i heard this version first...its good, but the group looks like straight hoodlums

  • now this is a song you dedicate to someone thats there thru the ups and downs...neverminding wat else thinks

  • I know the original by the intruders but thanks for nice rendition which is the definitive one. Love this song and it took me a while to find it.

  • Who sings the original??

    

  • @KikiRamos21 The Intruders

  • Oh just kick my butt!!!  The ultimate Sunday cruise in your car song wherever you are in the world. Absolutely timeless, never gets old. Should be dedicated to that certain special someone in your life.

  • This is an all-time great song. If you love someone, sing it to her. If you can't sing who cares. It's the thought that counts.

  • Great cut, O, I must have had to buy 3 or 4 albums. I burned them out at the wedding and parties I did. It also came right on time when I did the Salsa Soul Show on WHBI in the early 1980s. When I played it the phones would light up from listeners wanting to hear it again.

  • I like this version just as much as the original. This is one of the best remakes, and I don't even care for remakes but this is good!!

  • remember seeing them in orlando around 1980. my mother worked at disney i got tickets free.12 years old running around the magic kingdom all night long all by myself.chuck berry and the spinners were headliners that year what a year!!

  • I love this song! It's really special for me.

  • firme love song brings back memories of ELA, Boyle Hieghts, Roosevelt High and DJing it was requested a lot

  • Havent heard this song since i was like ten only once maybe twice. Did not get a lot of air play on blk radio, but i NEVER forgot it. This Tierra guy really delivered on this one! Thanks for posting.

  • I had no idea this was a remake, or that it was originally sang by The Intruders . . . I was listening to the remade version all along!!

  • Excellent!

  • Reminds me of good times with my husband. I don't understand why we didn't last. I guess I'll never know. Listening to this song takes me back to the day we moved into our first home together and it was just the two of us starting a new life. I'll always remember our good times together.

  • These guys did a HELLUVA job covering this Intruders classic. Was a slow jam in DC. The DJ use to mixed the two versions....regret not recording it. Thanks for the post. Have it on vinyl...have not been successful in finding it on CD.

  • This is for the love of my life Ramon Verdugo !!!!!!!!

  • This song will remain in my heart, good memories.

  • Wow, what a great song. Thinking of mis Ojos Lindo. XO'S BABY!!!!!!!!!

  • we from el chuco!!!! where it all started bitches!!!!! el paso tx!!!

  • Eres tremendo come bola.. Tas'Loco!!!

  • As we age Tierra just dose Not sound the same as back in the Late 70's when they where playing at the Pasta House in L.A. On Olympic, I was there

  • East LA....tranquillo!!!

  • @Libertad72  BRINGS BACK MEMORIES OF THE CAR CLUB DANCES BACK IN THE 80'S IN E.L.A

  • This is a very good song. Musically, it is a song that just "goes through"...in other words, It starts and ends. They should have made made a loger version and instrumental with a rock-type of guitar solo. 1980...♥♥♥♥ Hi Isabel Garcia

  • good sweet memorias

  • Pensando en mis hojos lindo. Thank you for bringing back my smile Lindo. Your slowly but surely bringing me back to life with your silly ways of being and I can't wait to see you again.

    Thank you Lindo. XO'S

  • I dedicate this song to my best friend J. Torres who has helped me make through the hard times that this life has brought these last few months. thank You I deeply appreciate all You have done for me and continue to do for me each and every day. My world is very lonely without You .

Dinner, dance and show like the old days. Tickets on sale now at the box office and all TicketMaster locations.  A Drake Entert!ainment production. Join us

  • this brings back memories big time i learned how 2 salsa dance from this album LOL

  • Great song.. old school.. and very romantic videos .. nice job

  • I was in basic training Ft Benning, 81 when they played La La Means I Love You by Tierra. I was blown away to hear it on a small time station. Big hit across the country.

  • i thought la la means i love you was by the delfonics

  • A veces creo que el compositor de este tipo de musica romantica es inspiracion divina, sino que dulce, suave y romantica suena de principio a fin...el amor es lo mas autentico y puro que nos puede haber regalado nuestro creador y mas aun si es entre un hombre y una mujer...

  • Classic!!!

  • Plan now. See Tierra at the Galaxy Theatre in Santa Ana on Valentines Day, Sunday, February 14. Dinner, dance and show like the old days. Tickets on sale now at the box office or Ticketmaster. This is a Drake Entertainment Production.

  • Good, but not very good. My fav of this song is a very slow 9/8-measure version (rhythmically like "If You Don't Know Me By Now") sung by a young black lady. However, I haven't been able to figure out WHO. Sounds very gospel-like. I don't expect to ring any bells with anyone here, but you never know :)
