A reivial of a 1920s song....most of the audience may not know what a gigolo is. Contrary to many of the comments, they did a pretty good job..stayed on tune, provided a great deal of energy, and had fun doing it.
Why? By the time he did his medley of "Just a Gigolo/I Ain't Got Nobody" the latter song was already 40 years old and the former 26 years old. Hardly original even in his day. (Just a Gigolo, 1929; I Ain't Got Nobody, 1915)
I wasn't trying to say Louis Prima would be rolling because did it first, I was saying he would be rolling because Menudo sucked when they tried to do it.
Ricky Martin is better than some of you. Who cares that he's gay. He speaks 5 languages, can single, tries to save many children and he has the perfect look. Whatever he does it's his life.
entiendan eran los 0s a la gente le gustaba eso!!! la cancion no es mala, lo que es malo son esos hijos de puta que desde chicos eran puñales, y ahora que ya estan grandes y gordos siguen siendo puñales!!!! en mi opinion es una groseria lo que hicieron con esa cancion!!! siendo una letra que hablaba de la sociedad norteamericana en los años 30, se ha ido modificando claro, pero no mamen estos putos si que la cagan, prefiero escuchar a louis prima o swing kings ellos si respetaron esta cancion!!!
Calling him gay is dumb..he was 14 there and still being dressed by his mom, as ALL of you were at that age...take in to fact that it WAS the 80s people...educate yourself before calling someone out...he had a long term girlfriend Named Rebecca DeAlba (Yeah-research it) and almost married her..so instead of making fun of a man who is trying to save 3rd world children sold into the sex trade by using the fame he earned, why don't you use that enegy to do something to help yourself?
I watched this in a concert and I loved it then...it's still cute! He's still cute! I guess I'm really old, cause I see him and I think of my son...but it's nice to remember.
yep that lil boy is Ricky Martin........my first celeberty Crush. I was just a 10 year old little girl at that time. I gotta say that he's gotton more handsome with age.
a los que criticaron este video y a Menudo, dejenme decirles que no solo Menudo es uno de los mejores grupos de la historia de la música, sino que llegaron donde muchos soñaron y aún sueñan.... así que si no tienen un comentario bueno que hacer, mejor callense la jeta!!!!!!.
This clip will keep on haunting Ricky Martin, I'm sure. No thanks to YouTube, it is now unearthed for everyone to see. :-) Those shoulder pads are so execrable now, but they're very fashionable in the 80s!
Cab Calloway's spinning in his grave for sure. This is just tragic, off key, and clumsy.
