loved this song when i was younger. Thought id look it up. 1st time ive ever seen the video to it. Song still sounds great. pity they dont make music like this anymore :(
@gregathe And the two are mutually exclusive? I think not. Latin plays a prominant influence in and forms part of the English language. Normally I wouldn't pick things like that out because I'm not a boring pedant but you're an asshole who left an asshole comment.
I'm from Britain and love optimistic 80's tunes like this, and the retro 50's style popular back then. There are a few things I don't get about it though.
Why are the Gomez' winning every draw and the Rockwell's losing? That looks like tokenism to 'compensate'(?) for a patriotic song.
Then, inexplicably, the Rockwells visit the Gomez' to congratulate them, and the daughter apparently enters an unhappy marriage with one of the Gomez clan.
Apart from the peculiar story, it looks & sounds great!
@goldenralph78 Hell yeeeeeaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!I couldn't have said it better myself!I LOVE IT!!!!!I spent countless of hours locked in my room listening to it as a teenager!Hell yeeeeahhhhhh!!!!!!
¡Cuanta envídia tienen estos habitantes de países tercermundistas que tanto critican a USA! Si en el fondo quieren ser americanos también, pero no tienen los huevos de decirlo al mundo. Poneos a trabajar y llegaréis donde ellos, so vagos.
@vanmaarwijk They also care dearly about maintaining the highest prison population on the planet. 50% of the entire world's prisoner population is in the land of the "free". It's slave labour re-introduced under the pretence of a free and fair society.
@vanmaarwijk I am n American, and trust me I wish we Didn't Love it so much, it is has a rather negative effect on the our culture, but what can one do?....:)P
stop bitchin around everybody!
its a nice song.
