  • the guy in the movie dosent even look like ritchy valens so i was like who was that? lol  R.I.P for ritchy valens.

  • I also think it´s Los lobos who does the singing, not Ritchie.

  • It´s not Ritchie on the movie, it´s Lou Diamond Phillips. Only him on the pictures.

  • 0:30 isnt ritchie

  • lamentablemente solo el recuerdo queda, se tienen solo fotografias y probablemente pocos videos de este chavo que partio muy joven descanse en paz.

  • you right he did die with holly and the big bopper.

  • only 18 when he died. just listen to him lol. hes bloody aswsome

  • Rest In Peace

    Ritchie Valens

  • he had mexican roots,and he was born in California.That makes him American.

  • Mexican, American or from Mars, it never mattered to me...I adored this guy! So sorry he did nto get to grow old with us. RIP, Ritchie

  • hes mom and hes dad were mexican that makes hem mexican and only mexican you retarded fck.

    Latinos run this b!tch.

  • (using my husbands username I am relplying to yours of today) I Know he is 100% mexican...what I said was: I dont care if he was Mexican, American or from Mars. I loved him dearly. And I still think of the great loss.  Now,was it necessry to be so rude?

  • no i guess not im sorry babe. =P lol

  • Oops! That first photo was of Roger Peterson, the pilot of the doomed Bonanza.

  • I love this song !!! Let's dance !!! ;)

  • does anyone know who the actor is, the one that was in the movie and when the movie was made?!?!?

  • his name is Lou Diamond Phillips, that movie is so great!:)

  • Lou Diamond Phillips is the actor

  • One of the greatest!! It's so sad he had to leave us too early, but his music lives on!!

  • Brilliant video but why do you have a picture of Roger Peterson in there too lol?

    Good stuff though!

  • One of my all time favorite songs ever. Thank you for posting it.

  • did he live in the US before he died? where was he brought up? what was his influnces???

  • Check out the movie. He lived in the LA area.

  • That movie is amazing.I lost mine:[He had talent.

  • YOU ARE A CULERO!!!!

  • wetback your mother asswhole! stop calling him beaner! you have no right to live

  • He was born Ricardo Valenzuela-raised in Pacoima, CA. That community has a park and recreation area that is dedicated to him. He was born in the United States and died in plane crash. I may be wrong about this but I believe he died with Buddy Holly and The Big Bopper. Anyone can correct me if I am wrong about that.

  • correct about who he died with FEB 3rd 1959

  • Who has the text of this song?

  • Perhaps it is because of their untimely deaths, but there is a certain sadness to the music of Ritchie Valens and Buddy Holly that belies the joyous nature of their songs...

  • Not exactly sure why... but that song always makes me cry my eyes out!

    That's some sweet rock-n-roll, man.

    Thanks for posting.

  • i will perfer this type of music than all the crap they give today i mean cmon miley cyrus made fame last so long 50 cent no jonas brothers please i will give anything to have this type of music any day

    It honors a true legend of Rock n Roll.

  • i agree

  • beautiful ! (;

  • eeeaaaa  VIVA LA BAMBA

  • Bobby was Da Coolest To His Lil Brother

  • Never knew how the real ritchie looked until 2nite. Great Video!!

  • I watched the movie ` La bamba` last night i had no idea it was meant to be real movie because it ended when he died in a plane crash. I feel so sorry for him, he died when he was so young, he could be a great musician now and married to `donna`

  • Drive a Plymouth Fury with this on the radio it must be an incredible sensation

  • Viva Richie siempre lo recordaremos!!

    Descanse en paz...

  • although i'm a child of the eighties, this song was also on the first record i ever owned! the 50s still rock.....

  • My dad still has the original 45 single of this song. He bought it when this came out. He was a teenager then and he's 67 now.

  • Ritchie Valens was a good artist. Youtube search for ELVIS ROCK DISCO 45 (Manuel Vargas) and you will see an honoring to rock and roll music.

  • i think that guy on 0:28 was not ritchie.

    i think thats roger peterson(the pilot who was driving the plane they crashed in).

    i saw that picture on the buddy holly documenntary and they said thats roger peterson.

  • That is Roger Peterson, lol.

    I was going to say that when I got done with the video. >_>;.

  • was that ritchie at 1:07?

  • yes

  • Ooo the picture at 1:18 is one of my favorites...RIP!

  • nice video

  • This song is real good but We belong Together is better in my opinion...

  • thanks for posting

  • c'est vraiment la mienne....yes , let's go !

  • supeer rolixaa!!!

  • Sweet...tahnks for the trip down Memory Lane(I'm 49, btw...)!

  • tang ina nyu

  • my gran got me into him went to his crash site a few years ago rip buddy and ritchie

  • Wow!!!!He is my idol....I am a Filipino and i was really touched with his Life Story. I cannot forget the movie of his life portrayed by Lou Diamond Philip.

  • R.I.P ritchie one of the best ever!!!!!!

  • Great Trax....

  • i like it its cool

  • I wish I'd shake his hand..

  • is richie valenzuela

  • Ricardo

  • I love his music, puts me in a good mood every time I hear it.

  • He is sooooooo great!

  • I love the mouvie

  • Repect for all of his songs!

  • calm down luckyyou9999

  • ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONGS EVER

  • btw just incase you posers didnt know his name was richie valenzuela not ritchie valens that name was given to him by the fucken producer.

  • i bet you didnt know that before u saww the movie!

  • And if it wasn't changed to "Valens", then he wouldn't have sold as many albums as he did. There was a reason that they changed his name and he was wise to agree w it.

  • check out my tribute song,its a demo,please spreas d the word and lets keep the ritchie name alive

    i m surferjay1

  • thumbs up i just heard it,

  • Makes me happppeeeee TOOOOOOO!!!

    :D

  • this song makes me haaaapeeeeee!!!!!!!

  • This vato can sing his oldies eh.

    This vato has all my respeto.

    R.I.P Richie

  • its just to bad that ritchie died in a plane crash he was really good with his music, he loved his music just like he loved his family,

    but his family always came first.

  • what a fantastic song!

  • fukin a ritchie let's go.

  • If that's Ritchie at 00:30 I must say (1)Never seen it before (2) Look like another person. Not many 'early' career photos of him. His entire career was an early one...

  • Duh...he died when he was 17.

  • Wonder if the drummer is Earl Palmer? That studio guy changed the rockn'roll scene as much or even more than many well known performers.

  • My grandparent's went to rithie valen's last concert in CL Iowa.

  • great song great singer goood movie too why can't they make songs like that now

  • I love Ritchie Valens now cause my mum made me watch the movie and i thought it was great!!! =)

    Ive seen it tons of times aready and this is my favorite song!!!!! :)

  • Unfair that he died so young ;(

  • a rocker to the bone

  • Why does talented musicians die so young? :(

  • Segovia, the spanish guitarist got pretty old. And he was very talented, hehe. Ray Charles, Perkins, Orbison died in riped age. Chuck, JLL, Fats, Penniman, B Lee Riley and many more are still alive so your statement is not true at all. Just based on a feeling.

  • Lou Diamond Phillips has no Mexican in him whatsoever. Poor choice to play Ritchie Valens.

  • shut up hes good

  • OK, Lou did none of the singing for that movie; a band called Los Lobos recorded all the songs for the movie and he looks nothing like Ritchie Valens. I'm not saying Lou is a bad actor, I'm just saying he wasn't the best choice for this part. Gary Busey, on the other hand, was perfect for his role as Buddy Holly in the Buddy Holly Story and he sang all the songs. Plus, it is actually Ritchie Valens singing in this recording, don't know if you're confused about that.

  • True I agree

  • why do morons come her and do all that trash talking..watch the flipping video...and shut the hell up!

    wanna be a moron? go back to mommies basement

  • J'adore

    merci de ce partage

    Richie serait devenu un grand chanteur et guitariste dommage que son destin s'en soit mêlé

    merci de le faire revivre au travers des vidéos

  • richie valens is one of those folks who you think hes 30 but 17. but hes still awesome

  • Oh yeah too good singer now i see the movie too before 2 hours that starts in 21:00 and finish in 23:00 - Unhappy man
