Why Spanish People Rule!



Down? Blue? Worried about the economy? Wondering what kind of world you brought your children into? Wishing Sarah Palin would just go away...forever and ever?

I know.

This fantastic song will cure what ails you, even if it gives you the bilirrubina! Keep your eye on the background singers - that's how I want to dance, and I'm learning how. That's all I want to do, and I'll be happy. Muy muy feliz!

LOLZ me sube la bilirrubina cuando te miro y no me miras, y no lo cura la aspirina... what a classic!

Charo said...

I will be the judge of whether you are learning to dance la Bilirrubina or not. Yes, a wonderful, happy song and so cleverly composed. You got good taste - but hey I knew that already.
PS: Yes, I too wish SP will just go away......

I remember when that song first hit the scene Nicholas.. I was on the outskirts of Bogota at my sister-in-law's farm. Sunny day and the fritanga (bbq) was delicious and scored with this song. Ever have a perfect day? Well this was one of mine. Thx for the post.

Teresa - I met my doctor friend from Cadiz, Javier Ona,in NY last year (see July 2008 post), and he explained the bilirrubina to me. I already loved the song, but now I understand what it all means!

Charito! - you know I'm practicing to impress you, the best of all...gracias por visitar a la princesa hermosa!

PG - I love all of them. I saw a young Cuban guy on a cruise ship last year who was probably the best dancer (male)I've ever seen. No gringo is ever going to come close to that, but it gives me something to shoot for. No vids! Used to wear a beret sometimes, but it looked too artistic, ha.

Nancy - back in the 'osphere, good to see you, thanks for posting'

Bill - you and I both eat this stuff up...BBQ too. Impossible not to have a perfect day with great people and great music.

Alex - dammit, I know it! But I'm going to try, and if I'm out on the floor with Olga or Charo (or you?), nobody will be watching me anyway!!!! hahahaha

I have two left feet but I wanna dance like those people too! Shara Palin is a numnut!!!!!!!! Ooops...time for me to go back to the Spanish Utube song.

David - take some lessons, get a few of the basic salsa steps down. You just have to be able to count to four - leaves you-know-who out, heheh.
