Well... I'm going to put my two cents in. I am a direct decendant from Spain, and this is my herritage. I am conflicted by this dance simply because it's NOT flamenco. It's a "cute" attempt, however, it shouldn't be under anything that is flamenco related. There are no "Flamenco" steps whatso ever in this bit. And the gypsy kings did not do this song. This clip to me is just a bit goofy all together, and children who are not cultured are imitating a very special (in my heart) culture.
If you want to put in your two cents, you should first make sure that you know what you're talking about, and all of your information is correct. Now, as an International traveler, linguist, historian, and cultural expert, I will set this record straight with facts, and leave no room for argument. Why? Because the truth of everything deserves to be printed, for all to see. Now, if you don't mind, I'll go about my explanation...
This song (Alabina) was written and produced by the group Alabina for their first CD, and became a hit single. The leader of the group Istar, although Israeli by birth, sings in nearly 6 different languages, and is an extremely talented and intelligent woman. Her background group "Los Ninos de Sara" are of direct Spanish and Gypsy (Roma) decent, however they live in France due to the immigration of their parents.

Lets all celebrate the different cultures around the world. I will never think this is insult to spanish culture whatsoever, what it has done actually is to introduce us to spanish culture people like us from Africa. I have arabic blood in me and i am proud of where i come from(East Africa) and single culture in this world. Thank you LORD for making us all different so that we can learn from each other and celebrate this beautiful Earth. STOP STUPID FIGHTING. :-)
thank you Zubeir, i apprecte iate that you are sticking up for our efforts to indulge in a culture foreign to us. I mean c'mon we were in high school and did this during a Day of the Spanish language as just a cultural activity. PLus this is all impromtu... and just for fun! :)
you did a fantastic job. I love it. Lets concentrate on the positive energy rather than negativity. Intergration is the new world order :-) oh well at elast for me and you hehe xx Well done xx
Give credit to the kids for trying. The Spanish/Flalmeco (Arabic influence) music is the folkloric and integral part of Spain and roots of latinamarica.
well I think that this seems an insult to Spanish people and dancing but it´s so funny because they seem a bit stupid. And this song isn´t very tipical Spanish, is a "fusión oriental" arabic and spanish at the same time. I hope the dance of that song that I´m doing in the bellydance clases will be better than this.
In Spain people is inteligent like in Britain, EEUU and in the rest of the world.
y'all have got to chill out. this was for extra credit hahaha its not like we practiced. No its not flamenco, its not actually a dance but who cares laugh at it.
The men dont even look like machos españoles!!! hahahaha
ayy god... when r the americans going to learn how to dance!?
apart this video is disrespecful to the spanish ppl u r... kind of laughting to our culture...
any way in my opinin i think u shpuld visit spain because u will fall in love!!! n u will love famenco rumba paella n all these beautyful things that mi España is giving to the world!
hope u come n enjoy it and learn how to respect things.!
For the record, the spanish teacher that puts this on is actually a Honduran man of Mayan descent. There is essentially no time given for practice, and none of the participants have any dance training. Also, you note how "this video is disrespectful to the spanish ppl u r... kind of laughting [sic] to our culture."
First: where did you learn spelling? Internet speak is generally not respected in intelligent circles.
Second: most students feel the same way, but they don't have a choice.

Ok first of all i am sorry if my spelling its not totally correct but I am working on it! if you didnt realize i am not an english speaker, I am Spanish. May be one of these days I will get a ticket to be acceptet to the "intelligent circle"

Ok anyway if i understood it you are kind of telling me that the teacher is not giving a lot of time to the student so thats why they do it all wrong, ok then I guess the teacher its not doing well his job because normally when you give this type of activities is to teach your students the culture of another country. Which I dont think happened in this case.
But at least they are laughing at it! well done then!
LADNA MASHA... shto eta takoy? blin... it's just hillarious! GOOD STUFF! good for the soul! forget those haters... loll... ve vilikalepna tansivali!!! Yall were magnificent... much love - ACE
