@ConfusedSponge excuse me for sounding a little hipster when I say this, but isn't the cheesy sound what makes it so great? Its not as blatantly meaningful as the 40s tried to be, but the 60s were a lot more fun!
I'm sorry, but fuck 60s Pop! This song is way too fast and raunchy. The tempo is all wrong. This is supposed to be a sentimental and poetic song and they ruined it by making it cheesy. If some 40s Traditional Pop lady singer did this, it would be brilliant and heavenly!
No one quite like her. One of my favorite tunes and she nailed it. I remember there once was a recording of her doing Malaguena. I've looked for it but have only found (an excellent) live recording that she did. Is my memory deceiving me, or did she in fact record Malaguena in the studio once?
@CHASxWILSON Hi there! Your memory is correct! She did record that song on her 1959 LP, "Connie Francis Sings Spanish and Latin American Favorites." I think it is uploaded on You Tube somewhere. If not, I'll share it with you.
@AConnieChannel If it is on You Tube, I can't find it. I've seen the live performance in several postings, but not the one from that LP. It would be so kind of you to post it and share with all of her fans. Many thanks!
@AConnieChannel I like Connie, too, but I like Dick Dale's version of this song. But Connie made me realise that there are English lyrics....but translated from a Biblical era dialect. (lol)
The best version of all.
