What type of Latin music is this? There's a bit of Mexican accent in the music. Me gusta este versión de canción.

@berniemacksouthcentr I reckon it's a hybrid of many different types, we're Irish! My Mexican friend translated the lyrics for me so maybe I picked up a bit of a Mexican twang from him. Glad you like it :)

Do you guys have a recording available for download somewhere?



[rayconse]

@masterhide Afraid not, that was the one and only time we performed it - we were just a bunch of friends in the same class that got together for that day. I'm glad you enjoyed it though! Thank you :)

this sounds great! usually it seems if you try to translate a song form one language to another it never fits right, but this fit very well :D

@Emilylucy505 Thanks very much! I think the Irish accent still shines through a bit too much, but it was still a lot of fun to make :)
